Can Your Litigation Support Software Do That?
The number of important documents in a typical case hasn't changed. It's a constant like the sun, moon, and tides. But the number and types of documents have changed — more of them in an increasing array of electronic formats. As a result, old school litigation support software doesn't work as well as it once did. Instead, these programs need new functionality to help litigation teams stay on top of all these documents. The latest version of one of the leading litigation support products offers a number of new functions designed for modern litigation.
CT Summation Enterprise 2.7 … in One Sentence
Released earlier this week, CT Summation Enterprise 2.7 is a scalable SQL-based litigation software suite for managing cases, including discovery documents and deposition transcripts.
The Killer Feature
Litigation support software like CT Summation Enterprise originated because litigation teams found themselves drowning in paper during discovery. CT Summation Enterprise enabled these teams to transform all that paper into searchable electronic documents — and it still does.
Nowadays, litigation teams find themselves drowning in electronic documents. Answering the call of the industry again, the new version of CT Summation Enterprise has added a Near-Native Document Viewer and more.
With this tool, you can view virtually any type of file without the need for the original program. For example, you could view CAD illustrations created by AutoCAD without having to buy a copy of AutoCAD.
Other Notable Features
Also new are CT Summation Enterprise's built-in tools for accelerated document review and coding, enabling you and your colleagues to group similar documents processed through a near-duplicate analysis service or software, and more easily bulk-code an entire near-duplicate set.
With CT Summation Enterprise, it's unlikely you'll run into any production task you cannot handle thanks to the new Petrification Toolkit. Petrification refers to the process of converting native files into an image format (e.g., for responding to document requests). Thanks to the Oracle Outside In technology at the core of the Petrification Toolkit, you can configure batch sizes and process all the latest file formats, including very old programs like Wordstar.
What Else Should You Know?
CT Summation has made it easier to access the features of Enterprise with a refreshed user interface. Much of these improvements stem from client feedback. Learn more about CT Summation Enterprise 2.7.
