Press Release
Leading Analyst Firm Includes Anacomp in Prestigious eDiscovery Marketscope Report
Company Cited for CaseLogistix Review Platform and Document Services Legacy
SAN DIEGO, CA, JANUARY 14, 2009 - Anacomp Inc., a leading business process solutions company, today announced its inclusion in the "Marketscope for eDiscovery Software Product Vendors 2008" 1 published by Gartner, a leading technology consulting firm. Now in its second year, the report provides analysis of the electronic discovery technology market and evaluates offerings of leading vendors in the space. Anacomp and CaseLogistix, the companys flagship litigation review platform, were rated as "promising," which is the highest rating available to vendors who are included in the report for the first time.
According to the report, "Courts are requiring enterprises to improve their handling of information during litigation. The consequent spending on eDiscovery software technologies and service offerings is growing swiftly and is forecast to grow between 25% and 35% annually through 2012." The report also states that Enterprises purchasing eDiscovery software can reduce the costs of litigation by improving their control over unstructured and semi-structured content and can cut costs and risks by taking control of litigation hold, litigation-hold tracking, file collection, file processing, and legal review instead of outsourcing these functions. Finally, the report states that Gartners clients "report that the payback period for eDiscovery investments is very short, on the order of three to six months after implementation takes place."
"We're pleased to be included in the prestigious 2008 eDiscovery Marketscope by Gartner, itself a very well-respected and influential analyst firm in the information technology realm, said Wayne Ford, Anacomp's Senior Vice President of Marketing, Channels and Strategic Alliances. We believe CaseLogistix's inclusion in the report serves as an additional independent validation of our key differentiators, which include our intuitive and powerful user interface, flexible workflow and folders, and our docNative Paradigm which emphasizes native file review. In addition, Anacomp's unique advantage in the marketplace is our ability to offer hosted review services via robust infrastructure, scalability and security that leverage our proven legacy of experience, people and processes to streamline and accelerate litigation review and analysis."
CaseLogistix allows legal teams to quickly collect, organize, review, and produce any amount of digital evidence using an interface similar to that of Microsoft Outlook. The system is fully Unicode compliant and is able to recognize all foreign language character sets. In addition, CaseLogistix's innovative docNative Paradigm approach to eDiscovery emphasizes native file review, empowering users to view hundreds of file types, including audio and video, without the need of third party file conversions. By managing documents in their native and near-native formats, the "TIFFing" conversion step can be skipped until the end of the discovery process, and only then as needed to format documents that are relevant and required for production. As such, users can greatly accelerate review, cut processing costs in half and reduce associated risks. In addition, this native file review approach also supports compliance with new Federal Rules of Civil Procedure (FRCP) around electronically stored information (ESI). Anacomp's docNative Paradigm also empowers the ability to manage images such as TIFFS, so hybrid format environments of TIFFS, near-native, and native files are seamless to the user.
