Shread, Paul. E-Discovery Thrives in Tough Times. Feb. 3, 2009.

A lot of e-discovery vendors at LegalTech recently. Interesting quotes in this article:

  • The investigation of Bernie Madoff may literally support a portion of the [e-discovery] market for the next couple of years” (quoting ESG sr. analyst Brian Babineau)
  • ESG has studied the value of e-discovery technologies and found that content archiving (e-mail, files, and so on) generates a fast payback because it centralizes data for easy identification and collection, and companies can also use it to enforce legal holds.

Also mention of Procedo coming out of stealth mode … any-to-any data archive migration focus.
