More data, in more places, is leading to exploding and unsustainable cost and risk. In-house legal teams need more powerful, scalable, and affordable solutions to help them address these mounting challenges to litigation response. TURNING RISK INTO OPPORTUNITY The largest driver of e-discovery costs is from processing, analysis and review in fact they absorb more than 9 out of every 10 dollars spent on e-discovery. Corporations rushing to collect ESI in response to litigation may be over collecting and then passing it to outside counsel and service providers

3 unnecessarily increasing overall e-discovery costs. Controlling preservation volumes and optimizing each step of the process represents the best opportunity to mitigate the corresponding risk and cost. ENLIGHTENED E-DISCOVERY We believe e-discovery is ripe for innovation. Corporations need a new approach that ensures the organization is protected with intelligent discovery best practices and technology that optimizes each step of the way: DEFENSIBLE PRESERVATION Preserve in place confidently knowing your processes are completely auditable and that custodians are informed and acknowledge their role in the duty to properly preserve key data in repositories both local and remote that contain relevant information.

By using a single, cloud-hosted platform, in-house legal teams get: Real-time visibility at each stage of electronic discovery, giving insight into the process and informing litigation strategies Robust reporting capabilities enabling legal teams to better manage each step and fully defend their processes Ease of use and quick implementation means legal departments can be up and running without extensive training nor maintenance Flexibility to handle a wide range litigation response, ranging from smaller cases up to large scale mission-critical litigation TARGETED COLLECTION Put collections in the hands of the legal team who can make informed decisions about what to collect from custodians and when, without requiring expensive processes, tools, and people to do the job. Improve how you approach collections. Reserve creating an image of hard drive for times when there is a bad actor and instead employ a more conservative approach, for example, gather a sample of the custodians and sources that are most likely to possess relevant ESI in a forensically sound manner, knowing the information is properly preserved -- organizations can avoid overcollection cost and risk. IDENTIFY AND STORE DATA Quickly and thoroughly process ESI to create an index and make it searchable in order to locate potentially responsive data immediately and export it for review. When preservation data is in a secure, shareable repository, the data is available as the case progresses, or for subsequent matters.

Data Collect Pro performs targeted collections with minimal custodial interaction without the need for dedicated IT resources. Custodians can keep working on their computer even while you collect! When collecting data, you can easily apply filters such as by file extension or date range to reduce the amount of ESI collected.
