Concordance Ranked Number One in E-Discovery Survey for Third Year
Socha-Gelbmann Electronic Discovery Survey Finds Concordance Most Used Litigation Support Software for the Third Year in a Row
LOS ANGELES, CA, August 22, 2006 - Results of the nation’s largest and most comprehensive annual survey of the $1.2 billion¹ e-discovery industry have found that attorneys rate Concordance™ Software by Dataflight as the leading software provider to the legal industry in several key categories.
For the third year in a row, the Socha-Gelbmann E-Discovery Survey found that more U.S. law firms use Concordance for electronic discovery than any other single software application. Recently acquired and added to the LexisNexis® family of Litigation Services solutions, Concordance received first place rankings in five out of six categories related to software usage by law firms, including the categories of Number of Seats, User Satisfaction, and Usage by Stage (Processing, Review, Analysis and Production).
"It’s most gratifying for us to see the survey results reporting that law firm users are more satisfied with their experience with Concordance than with any other single e-discovery software product," said Jeff Lipsman, founder of Dataflight Software® and creator of Concordance.
The survey examined usage and software choices law firms and large corporations. Consumers were asked to identify the software programs they used to work with Electronic Discovery. More respondents selected Concordance as their number one litigation support software choice for Electronic Discovery than any other application.
According to results of the same survey, law firms and corporations also ranked LexisNexis® Applied Discovery® as one of the top five2 e-discovery services overall based on combined scores in the areas of Experience, Capacity, Types of Services, Software Usage, Law Firm Rankings, Corporate Rankings and Revenue.
Applied Discovery earned additional top-five2 rankings in the categories of Experience and Law Firm Rankings and in the specific e-discovery stages of Collection, Processing, Review and Analysis. The survey also reported that U.S. law firms use Applied Discovery more frequently than any other single e-discovery service provider.
"We are extremely pleased that LexisNexis e-discovery services and software have registered so positively with the legal community," said Michele Vivona, senior vice president and general manager for LexisNexis Litigation Services. "We believe this speaks to the quality of our offerings and how much law firms can depend on us to deliver the best results to help them win."
