I think one of the pain points I had was the number of emails that had to be sent out. If there was a way to just maybe reduce the bulk — that would be great. Like I mentioned before, OGC or the General Counsel, they're kind of the business owners of the tool. They're the ones that use it on a daily basis. So one of the things that would be helpful but we just can't do involves the way the role structures are set up. Any time that somebody outside of the Office of the General Council needs something, they need to contact the General Counsel directly in order to get that information from Exterro. I guess as far as a pain point, maybe a more robust role-based access model would be useful. We had to go through a third-party to use it. I understand the risk because you don't want anybody to just go into Exterro and potentially see legal matters, but I think it's just the way we have it set up — it's an all-or-nothing type role-based model. That's why only the General Council can use it. If the roles could be scaled in a way where let's say, a visitor role could come into the tool and view a report, that we can't do right now. So if there was a way to do that, I think that would be nice to have.

LAW PreDiscovery can simplify its interface and offer a cloud-accessible version tailored to customers. We often use other cloud-based document review software alongside LAW PreDiscovery to meet specific needs. This interchangeability allows us to handle specialized export requests more effectively. There also needs to be a more straightforward process for upgrading licenses without contacting support.

"If these details, photos, dates of birth, and so on are not possible to include, I believe it would be much more efficient if multiple people could log in using the same email address, as we can in some other programs."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"LAW PreDiscovery licenses are pretty costly and are on a yearly subscription basis. Before committing to LAW, it's crucial to calculate and ensure that you'll see a return on investment."
