CommVault and CaseCentral Form e-Discovery Alliance

CaseCentral is teaming with CommVault to deliver a best-of-breed eDiscovery solution for companies looking to streamline, automate and reduce the risk, liability and unnecessary cost associated with eDiscovery.

Using CommVault Simpana Archive and Search software, customers will be able to index, search and retrieve electronically stored information (ESI) as part of the eDiscovery process while preserving the information using a legal hold archive. Relevant data can then be analyzed, reviewed and produced in CaseCentral’s on-demand eDiscovery review platform. The result is an end-to-end eDiscovery solution that is easy to use and deploy.

For many organizations feeling the pressure of regulatory compliance and eDiscovery demands, implementing a solution that can retrieve ESI in a timely and cost-effective manner when faced with an investigation should be a critical component to an effective risk mitigation strategy. Businesses should also approach eDiscovery not as a series of one-off events, but rather as an ongoing process. By proactively addressing the issue, companies can eliminate reactive ad hoc responses and better align internal and external teams to drive down costs and minimize liability and risk.

The alliance between CommVault and CaseCentral will offer customers a comprehensive eDiscovery solution that scales across the entire Electronic Discovery Reference Model (EDRM). Taken together, CommVault’s leading data and information management software and CaseCentral’s Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) multi-matter eDiscovery review platform create a one-of-a-kind eDiscovery solution that can remove significant cost and manage risk in a typical eDiscovery process.

CaseCentral recently announced the third version of its on-demand eDiscovery review platform which is one of the first multi-case, multi-party eDiscovery review platform with process analytics. The third version enables a repeatable, defensible and measurable eDiscovery process on one case or multiple cases, across any number of law firms and other parties, and delivers an integrated Enterprise eDiscovery Dashboard with process analytics which monitors all cases, measures all reviewers and provides law firm statistics across matters.

Based on the experience of both companies, by using a combination of CommVault and CaseCentral technologies, they believe businesses can realize measurable cost savings from just one incident of eDiscovery, and when faced with multiple litigation incidents in a single year, may be able to save up to 70 percent.

Available immediately, CommVault’s global sales team will partner with CaseCentral to promote a solution that combines CaseCentral’s eDiscovery review platform with the CommVault Simpana software suite.

“Companies have been seeking an answer to taking costs out and putting efficiency into today’s multi-step eDiscovery process,” said Steven d’Alencon, chief marketing officer, CaseCentral. “By partnering with CommVault, we can offer our customers a comprehensive, best-of-breed solution for companies who want to eradicate unnecessary costs and to have repeatability, measurability and efficiency in their eDiscovery processes.”

“In today’s litigious environment, companies are facing more and more discovery requests while the volume of corporate data is exploding. By teaming with CaseCentral, we can now deliver customers a unique eDiscovery solution utilizing both CommVault’s Simpana software and CaseCentral’s eDiscovery review platform. Consequently, legal teams will be able to reduce their overall risk and liability, while gaining a more efficient, scalable and cost effective way to streamline their eDiscovery process,” said Warren Mondschein, vice president and general counsel, CommVault.
