For years traditional early case assessment (ECA) has been the victim of poor process. Due to technology gaps, legal counsel had to first collect all custodial data before the analysis and first pass review could begin. This has proven time-consuming, expensive, incomplete and ultimately not effective.
Today however, StoredIQ is revolutionizing early case assessment with StoredIQ Analyze Anywhere™. This innovative, new approach enables ECA to occur prior to preservation and collection, without requiring the movement of data from where it natively resides. This powerful ability to perform early case analysis on data “in the wild” has distinct advantages over traditional ECA and gives legal counsel the ability to:
- Conduct ECA on data where it natively resides—prior to collection
- Lower the cost of formal review by outside counsel
- Develop a superior legal strategy
- Formulate “settle vs. litigate” decision sooner
- Retain all business context around data for higher quality downstream review
- Leverage legal-friendly workflow for simplified and accelerated analysis
Powered by a legal-friendly eDiscovery workflow, Analyze Anywhere gives legal counsel the ability to dynamically tune searches, review analytics, and modify custodian lists – all prior to any collection of data. This accurately narrows the preserved and collected information subject to the “duty to preserve,” mitigating further legal risks and providing a legally defensible audit trail.
Through our field level engagements with numerous law firms and general counsels, we believe StoredIQ Analyze Anywhere has the legal-friendly features and functionality, allowing legal counsel to now analyze data without moving it. By giving Legal the power to perform ECA near the beginning of the eDiscovery workflow, early case assessment finally provides real value and achieves the goals it originally set out to accomplish for improved legal strategy and cost reduction.
