Channel-based communications and collaboration have fueled productivity and have transformed the way we work and communicate. The information on these platforms is mission critical. Problem is, these applications were not designed for discovery, investigations, nor compliance. Collaboration and dynamic data are the new normal. So what are you going to do about it?
OBJECTIVE
BuzzFeed uses the collaboration platform Slack to augment email and its other modes of internal communication. As a result, its legal and IT teams wanted to ensure they were prepared to identify, review, and produce Slack data in response to ediscovery matters and investigations. BuzzFeed needed a tool that could efficiently locate, preserve, and export that data in a review-ready format.
KEY ISSUES
- Quickly and easily search through Slack users and channels to identify relevant information
- Seamlessly export that information in a reviewable format
- Confidently state that all relevant data had been identified and considered—demonstrating defensible processes
APPROACH
Thanks to Hanzo Hold, BuzzFeed’s legal and IT teams have a tool that they can use to locate all relevant information within their organization’s Slack application in response to any ediscovery or investigation request. Moreover, they can produce that data to outside counsel for further review.
Read the case study to see how BuzzFeed attains greater efficiency and confidence using Hanzo Hold to manage its Slack data for ediscovery.
Zapproved Collaborates with Onna to Empower Corporate Legal Teams To More Effectively Manage Unstructured Data and Make Information More Discoverable
Portland, OR — 3 February 2021: Onna, the world’s first Knowledge Integration Platform on a mission to make enterprise information accessible, useful and private, has collaborated with Zapproved to build a direct integration between its ZDiscovery platform and Onna’s Knowledge Integration Platform. This announcement marks a significant milestone in Onna’s collaboration with leading legal technology companies to drive a better experience for customers.
With the exponential growth in the adoption of cloud tools and increased fragmentation of data, this new integration will allow corporate legal teams to more effectively preserve, collect, process and review all the relevant data in their organization directly from ZDiscovery for sources like Slack, Zoom and Microsoft Teams. By connecting seamlessly to Onna’s API, Zapproved users are able to select which source to create a hold on and which users the hold applies to along with an optional date range.
Onna’s Knowledge Integration Platform is a leading ediscovery solution that is making information across numerous apps less fragmented and more discoverable for legal teams across the globe. Combining the power of both the Onna and Zapproved platforms, allows users to:
- Conduct real-time ediscovery collections across all unstructured data sources
- Maintain an audit log of all ediscovery collections
- Enable users to run advanced searches across all data sources including specific channels and users
- Export data in multiple formats to upload to document review platforms
- Set up smart alerts to notify organizations any time there is sensitive or important information being transmitted
- Create groups within Onna with service providers and outside counsel to collaborate on matters and ediscovery requests
- Preserve and archive communications in their native, unaltered format, either wholly or in a granular fashion
- Initiate legal holds across specific data sources, users and/or channels
“Our collaboration with Zapproved is an important milestone in providing further value to our customers across the full breadth of ediscovery. Allowing them to search both structured and unstructured data and making it more discoverable will be a key factor in legal teams being able to conduct real-time collections.” said Kelly Griswold, COO, Onna.
Rekha Shenoy, CPO, Zapproved commented, “In the past 12 months, we started to notice a trend in the market with customers moving away from managing all their retention policies, preservations and information governance in each individual application they managed. Instead they were moving towards bundling all their data into a single location. We identified Onna to be at the forefront of that movement.” Rekha continues, “Empowering users to be able to preserve and collect data wherever it lives, was a key factor in our collaboration with Onna. Providing our customers with a best-in-class collaboration solution, with tight integration, allows both Zapproved and Onna to play to their strengths.”

As lawyers continue to work from home, they are logging more of their own billable hours and spending more time overall in their case management platforms. While case management software providers are experiencing a boom in usage, lawyers are also calling for more integrations that accommodate and improve their remote settings. An article in LTN this week, As Case Management Software Usage Grows, Lawyers Call for More Integrations, highlights this trend. AbacusNext’s legal global product marketing director Tomas Suros said the practice management platform has experienced an uptick in time tracking and APX billing usage. “I think this is in response to a remote work environment when manual [spreadsheet] or even paper-based tracking of time simply isn’t feasible any longer.”
This week AbacusNext announced the company will present Amicus Cloud 6.1 during Legalweek(year) 2021. Amicus Cloud is a cloud-based practice management solution that allows firms to access information about their practice 24/7 using any device from any location. The Amicus Cloud dashboard makes it easy to manage every task – Calendar, Email, Tasks, Time and Billing, and Matter Management. A secure client portal includes APX electronic payments (Abacus Payment Exchange), for seamless management of client billing.
The new release of Amicus Cloud includes support for recurring client billings in APX, for retainers or other flexible fee arrangements. Automatic organization of any document into its appropriate folder makes case information retrieval easier.
Tomas Suros, global product marketing director says “Inefficient and cumbersome payment and bill collection practices hinder companies’ ability to optimize their practice. Using Amicus Cloud with APX to schedule client payments and improve billing processes allows our customers to leverage the technology to build a better practice.”
