Address legal and compliance issues, manage information, optimize processes and minimize cost and risk with Legal solutions from OpenText

Today's challenges
As businesses seek to gain an information advantage, law firms and legal departments face a number of significant hurdles.
Staggering data volumes impact eDiscovery costs and risks
Massive data volumes and the need for rapid, data-driven decision-making pressure businesses to take a more comprehensive approach to eDiscovery data management and redefine the roles of in-house and outside counsel.
Failure to intelligently leverage data
Lack of insight from data prevents Legal professionals from effectively leveraging work product and content, re-purposing information and retaining useful institutional knowledge.
Heightened pressure to ensure operational excellence
Legal professionals increasingly need to maximize efficiency, increase productivity, reduce costs and free up time to perform high-value work.
Increased legal, regulatory and cybersecurity risks
Legal responsibilities extend well beyond traditional practices to include information governance, data privacy and security.
Customer success stories
Having a repeatable, defensible process when you have the volume of matters that we are looking at, as well as cost, it just makes sense [to manage data collections and legal preservation processes in-house]. It is in everyone’s best interest to try to address all of those issues if you are going to remain competitive.
When it comes to the foundation of a document management system, OpenText eDOCS is the best-in-breed. There isn’t a technology out there that is as feature-rich, configurable and compatible with our application stack that can integrate into systems easily.
Using the OpenText records management and classification practices, we have been able to reclaim over one terabyte worth of storage space as people are cleaning up in addition to classifying content. It is estimated that we will reduce the legal fees associated with e-discovery by 50 percent annually.
