Sfile New EDD Paradigm - eDiscovery from Collection Archiving to Production
CLICK HERE TO SEE LARGER VERSION

Sfile’s Electronic Document Discovery (EDD) customers save time, money and reduce risk through an integrated evidence archiving, processing, early case assessment and document review system.


The Sfile Platform delivers an unparallel corporate EDD workflow.


1. Evidence Archiving: All of the corporation’s discovery collections can be stored and preserved in Sfile. This multi-case (and all-case) capability has enabled Sfile to implement global data treatment. For example, the system can be configured such that a document that is deemed to be privileged in one case will be marked privileged in all future cases, saving time and money in the review process.


2. Precision Filtering: All of the analyzing and filtering of the collections can be processed within Sfile, allowing inside counsel or law firm attorneys to do early case assessment, prepare for the Meet and Confer process, and create the Review Set of information for document review.


3. Changing Filtering Requirements: Often, the criteria for the creation of the Review Set (e.g. key words, target individuals, date ranges) will be expanded within the collection set of data. Instead of returning to outside processing vendors to filter data, lawyers can return to the collection set preserved within Sfile, expand the filter criteria and simply create an addition to the Review Set. This process takes minutes and costs nothing (except for legal time) vs. days or weeks and expensive processing charges. If additional collections are needed, simply add them to Sfile and filter.


4. Integrated Review: There is no loading of a Review Tool. Hence, there is no load file creation (or associated cost), and no loading fees by the Review Tool vendor. There is no data transportation risk.


5. Powerful Review: The Sfile review capability is powerful, elegant and simple to use. It has been designed with litigation attorneys, for litigation attorneys with time saving features like TIFF and redaction on-the-fly and detailed privilege reporting. The interface is architected using AJAX, to provide the rich desktop feel in a web application and true Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) delivery.


6. Real Cost Savings: In addition to all of the above features and benefits, the Sfile Platform provides corporations, law firms and government agencies with compelling cost reduction. On average, corporations can realize cost savings of over $2 million for a single case with 500 GB of data collected for processing. These savings are not achieved with a loss of quality, but delivered while adding benefits of improved user experience, faster execution and more control.
