KMWorld editors, industry analysts, vendors, and knowledge management (KM) practitioners assessed over 800 products and selected Ringtail Legal as one of the top solutions demonstrating clearly identifiable technology breakthroughs to serve clients.
“E-discovery is an especially complex process, and corporations are struggling to take control of their data in a cost-effective and legally defensible manner,” said Hugh McKellar, editor in chief of KMWorld Magazine. “With this year’s Ringtail Legal launch, FTI Technology clearly demonstrates a spirit of innovation and focus on providing clients with a single system of record for taking control of e-discovery.”
The Ringtail software recognized by KMWorld was announced in February of 2009 and integrates two market-leading and award-winning applications to deliver a single e-discovery platform, combining the visual analysis and rapid review capabilities of Attenex® with the enterprise-class case management, redaction and production features of Ringtail Legal. This single solution, available both on-premise and on-demand, provides significant advancements in the speed, flexibility and cost-effectiveness of e-discovery and document review.
