BELLEVUE, Wash., Oct. 6 /PRNewswire/ -- Applied Discovery, a worldwide electronic discovery leader offering multinational collection, early case assessment (ECA), processing, review, and production services for law firms, corporations, and government agencies, announces the immediate availability of Leverage(TM) Review, the next generation platform for hosted document review.
The new Leverage(TM) Review application, a key component of the recently announced Applied Discovery Leverage(TM) Suite, provides a number of advances in review management and productivity features not found in traditional document review applications. An intuitive workflow management dashboard for creating and maintaining review passes enables administrators to have optimal visibility and control over the prioritization, assignment and tracking of work. Detailed information about assigned batches, along with progress by reviewer and batch, gives the review administrator fine-grained control over review.
"Assuring optimal use of resources is the key to success in e-discovery, especially in complex cases, where millions of documents must be searched, categorized and reviewed," said Jamie Brigman, director of product management at Applied Discovery. "The management dashboard in Leverage(TM) Review and the corresponding workflow improvements in document review and tagging will deliver improved productivity and reduce the cost of review, while providing users with an exceptional experience."
"We've been impressed with the pioneering work Applied Discovery has done in the QC process and review analytics for e-discovery", said Christine Taylor, analyst with the Taneja Group. "This new release shows the commitment to advancing workflow prioritization and business process management that are so critical to reducing the cost of document review, especially in high volume and complex matters."
