Keith Slyter, principal of Litigation Paralegals in Dallas is a believer in Digital War Room to do both processing and hosting: “I would opt to implement Digital War Room Remote or the Server Version. This Ernie Challenge is almost exactly the situation I am encountering in my Mobile Litigation Command Center (Mobile War Room) with small to midsize firms. The traditional options were not working, but Digital War Room is the best option out there for this situation. I use a self-standing network attached storage with 2 TB storage to house the data and clients can access the information a couple of different ways.”

“It does everything soup to nuts and is pretty easy to set up. In fact, my first install took 50 minutes start to finish, including running a full production of 1,100 images. Native files were Microsoft Word, PST, and PDF. Everything was converted to TIFF, OCR, and Bates stamped. Load files were generated for Concordance and Summation. The most difficult and time-consuming part was loading SQL Server Express on a laptop to get everything to run correctly,” he says. “This is the best usable solution I have found for small to medium firms who have some tech experience or who want to hire me to implement and train them on the best practices for their product.”
