Fourth Generation Software for eDiscovery

Kazeon Systems, Inc., a leading provider of innovative eDiscovery solutions, announced the availability of its fourth generation eDiscovery software for use by corporations, legal service providers and law firms. Kazeon’s solution solves a wide range of customer challenges such as in-house eDiscovery, internal investigations, audits, legal hold and retention management, and GRC.

Kazeon’s Fourth Generation software maintains a modular version providing three best-of-breed products; Analysis & Review, Collection & Culling, and Legal Hold Management. All three eDiscovery products are integrated within a single, underlying software platform to ensure a smooth workflow while eliminating hidden costs that exist in a multi-vendor or disparate product strategy. Further, Kazeon has developed an entirely new distributed, collaborative legal application, the eDiscovery Case Manager, that manages legal cases from ‘womb-to-tomb’ and is geared toward the legal counsel and litigation support staff.
Kazeon’s Fourth Generation eDiscovery software includes:

• A powerful Analysis & Review set of capabilities such as patented analytics, concept extraction and search, search results visualization, result and review filtering, query expansion, email thread analytics, and interactive & fast review. It also provides exhaustive, transparent, accurate auditing and data verification reports to enable complete defensibility of the eDiscovery process. Kazeon’s Review workflow includes linear review, collaboration across multiple reviewers, support for multiple law firm review, and review escalation workflow.

• Key advancements in Legal Hold such as identification of ESI based on case requirements, e.g., custodians, date ranges, concepts etc., case-based legal hold management, enforcement of legal hold, reporting of legal hold and finally, releasing legal hold when required. All of these can be performed in-place or in target repositories.

• Several innovative Collection & Culling features such as fully indexed or index-less targeted collection, and a forensically sound and defensible collection from any source, including USB drives, thumb drives and laptops. Further, legal users can perform their own collection & culling for each case without IT assistance using the simplified case-based application
