GGO Introduces The First Comprehensive Desktop e-discovery Software Product For Smaller Matters
DWR Pro provides a cost effective, defensible e-discovery solution for small matters; the software application scales to support multi-terabyte matters
E-Discovery experts Gallivan, Gallivan and O'Melia (GGO) recently introduced the industry's first all-inclusive desktop e-discovery software program. Digital WarRoom (DWR) Pro provides law firms and corporate legal teams with a cost effective, defensible e-discovery solution for matters up to one million documents.
DWR Pro is a single-user, PC-based application that ingests data files, extracts contents of containers (such as PST email archives and .zip folders), and creates a matter database, allowing the user to analyze and search document contents and to tag and produce relevant documents in response to litigation, government investigations, or other legal challenges.
"The high profile, high-volume ESI matters have tended to monopolize the attention of our industry," said Bill Gallivan, CEO of Gallivan, Gallivan & O'Melia. "However, an estimated 70-85% of all matters involve smaller volumes of data. The industry focus on high-end tools and custom processes has ignored the challenges faced by sole practitioners, corporations, and larger law firms alike when handling small and medium e-discovery matters. Digital WarRoom Pro levels the playing field by making advanced e-discovery technology accessible, affordable, and easy to use. An individual attorney or litigation support professional can fully expect to install DWR Pro, create a matter database, and conduct e-discovery review on several GB of documents within a few hours for less than $1,000."
While the DWR Pro product is designed for matters of up to one million documents, a key advantage is that the software is built on the Digital WarRoom e-discovery technology, an advanced architecture designed specifically for processing, indexing, and producing very high document volumes. When a case initially expected to remain small evolves into a longer-term, higher-volume matter, the database and associated attorney work product can be transferred to a hosted model in the cloud with virtually unlimited storage and repository. "It's the first e-discovery platform to accommodate smaller matters in a cost-effective, defensible manner while assuring a risk-free path to large-scale hosted e-discovery when the need arises," said Dan Gallivan, CTO and architect of the Digital WarRoom platform. "Many of our clients are Fortune 500 corporations who have expressed a desire to standardize on a common set of technologies, and in initial deployments the addition of DWR Pro to the Digital WarRoom family of products has been very well received."
