PUT TECHNOLOGY TO WORK Manual, linear review of large litigation document collections is becoming more and more unrealistic as data growth continues to explode. Courts have ruled computer assisted review is an acceptable and defensible strategy when dealing with such matters.² Eclipse analytics allows reviewers to prioritize documents by first reviewing a small set of sample documents. Eclipse quickly uses this set to sort the population into categories and leaves irrelevant documents as uncategorized By using innovative document categorization technology this computer assisted workflow allows reviewers to achieve better reviews faster. ADVANCED ANALYTICAL REVIEW For many law firms, litigation review is the most time consuming and expensive portion of litigation, making up approximately 70% of the total costs of document production.¹ To alleviate this pain, web-based review platform Eclipse incorporates advanced analytics, computer assisted review functionality, and cutting-edge features which allow law firms to streamline their workflow, reduce inefficiency and save time and money throughout the review process. TWO DATABASE OPTIONS TO MEET YOUR NEEDS START SMARTER Eclipse uses advanced analytics to identify and thread email conversations, find and compare near duplicate documents, and cluster conceptually like documents together, giving you an immediate first look at the collection before even starting your review. Speed up review time and increase accuracy by reviewing logical clusters of documents in the same batch. 1 R etreived January 10, 2013 from http://www.rand.org/content/ dam/rand/pubs/research_briefs/2012/rand_rb9650.pdf Not all firms have the IT resources required to implement a web-based, client-server SQL software package into their current infrastructure. The Eclipse review application comes in two versions depending on your firm s IT environment and needs: Eclipse with a SQL back end and Eclipse SE with a self-contained database.
