Professional Secure Client Portal
Sending file attachments or raw cloud drive links can feel unprofessional and risky. A secure client portal provides a dedicated, branded environment for your clients to review your work. It creates a clear boundary between your internal files and what you deliver to the client.
With LinkVault, you can set up this experience in seconds. Every link you share acts as a mini-portal: a secure, view-only space where your client can review proposals, designs, or reports without the friction of a complex login system.

Why Use a Secure Client Portal?
Traditional sharing methods lose control the moment you hit 'send'. A portal ensures that access is trackable and revocable. It allows you to deliver high-value work while keeping the source files protected until you are ready to release them.
Portals also improve the client experience. Instead of digging through email threads for the latest version, your client has a single, professional link where the most recent version is always available under your rules.
Key Features for Client Portals
View-Only Delivery
Ensure clients can review your work but cannot download the original files until you give permission. This is critical for protecting intellectual property during the review phase.
Branded Experience
Apply your firm's logo and colors to every share. A professional presentation builds trust and reinforces your brand value at every touchpoint.
Engagement Tracking
Know exactly when your client opens the portal and how long they spend reviewing your documents. Use these insights to time your follow-ups perfectly.
Best Practices for Managing Client Access
A secure client portal is most effective when combined with clear access policies. We recommend setting expiration dates on all shared links and using password protection for highly confidential materials. For the highest security, use approval workflows so you can verify each visitor before they see your work.
- Always set an expiration date for project milestones
- Use password protection for sensitive financial or legal docs
- Enable watermarking on creative drafts and IP
- Use approvals for external vendors and high-risk shares
- Review activity logs to confirm receipt and engagement
