Litigation Workflow Greatly Simplified with Next Generation of iBlaze and Integration of Rosen Technology Resources Tools SAN FRANCISCO – Aug. 25, 2009 – CT Summation, a premier provider of litigation workflow and eDiscovery solutions (EDD) , today announced the eDiscovery version of its iBlaze product as well as a strategic partnership with Chicago-based Rosen Technology Resources (RTR). The new tools available in iBlaze 3.0, combined with the integration of RTR’s best-in-class products, significantly increase CT Summation’s industry leading capabilities in the eDiscovery market. Users can now benefit from unprecedented levels of speed and accuracy in the electronic document management, review, analysis, and production process.
As volumes of electronically stored information and converted paper documents continue to grow, the eDiscovery process is more important than ever. Litigators need rapid access to relevant case data in order to represent clients to the best of their abilities. However, the process of obtaining this information in a timely and cost-effective manner presents numerous challenges due to the various complexities of managing large amounts of electronic information. iBlaze 3.0 helps users overcome these challenges by equipping them with a range of new tools that make the eDiscovery process more manageable, quick and easy.
The strategic partnership with RTR is a major enhancement to iBlaze 3.0’s eDiscovery capabilities. RTR’s industry-leading reputation and eDiscovery tools perfectly complement the existing functionality of CT Summation iBlaze. Three RTR products are now integrated with iBlaze, including ALCoder™ (autocoding application), ALFind™ ( near-duplicate identification tool) and conceptuAL™ (concept search application) – offering unique functionalities that help expedite the coding, review and search aspects of the eDiscovery process.
“One of the attributes that has made CT Summation iBlaze such a trusted brand is our ability to recognize new industry challenges and respond with product enhancements and strategic partnerships that help our clients,” said Tom Rump, general manager, CT Summation. “We’re confident that the new enhancements to iBlaze, along with the integration of RTR’s products, will provide our users with the right tools to help streamline the eDiscovery component of the litigation workflow.”
New features of iBlaze 3.0 include:
· Redaction Enhancements: Search for redacted documents, quickly review redacted language and globally redact the same portion of each image supporting a faster redaction workflow.
· Condensed Transcript Printing: Print multiple pages per sheet enabling rapid deposition analysis.
· Production Enhancements: “Document Family” format allows user to collaborate on the creation of production sets.
· Near-Native Document Viewer: eDocs viewer now provides near-native document viewing capability.
· Duplicate Identification: Import and store MD5 hash values to identify exact duplicates, easily cull documents and ensure consistent coding.
· TIFF on the Fly: Petrification Toolkit supports all the latest file formats for leading ESI file types and seamless integration of petrification into the reviewer’s workflow.
