Venio Systems introduces VenioOne, end to end e-Discovery Software

VenioOne, the latest product to join Venio’s flagship eDiscovery platform, is designed to reduce risk and cost by speeding through ESI.

Venio Systems, a provider of eDiscovery software for corporations, law firms and service providers, has announced that it will be introducing its new end to end e-Discovery software, VenioOne, at LegalTech New York 2016. The event will be held at the New York Hilton on Feb. 2-4 in downtown Manhattan.

“Venio is excited about having serious conversations with eDiscovery professionals about the power behind unified platforms like VenioOne,” Arestotle Thapa, Venio’s CEO/CTO told Legaltech News. “Our clients who are attending LegalTech will be able to describe how they are completing projects faster and with much less technical intervention, using Venio. Several of them will be able to testify as to the extreme speeds they are gaining with Venio in the cloud.”

VenioOne is the latest product to join Venio’s flagship e-Discovery software. It is designed as a single platform aimed at reducing risk and cost by “speeding through” ESI, company officials said. The updated VenioOne includes improved processing, review capabilities, and streamlined review functionality to increase review rates. Thapa said users now have more “granular control of workflow with increased redaction control, and privilege log integration review set supervision.”

“Venio has strengthened its unified e-Discovery software by significantly enhancing its review functionality,” Thapa explained. “This evolution will allow our clients to use one tool to perform all eDiscovery tasks from ingestion through production. Our streamlined workflow speeds review with minimal clicks and effortlessly supports quality assurance.”

He added, “Venio has always been concerned about the risk and expense involved in moving data between applications. The VenioOne unified workflow eliminates export and import errors and the delay caused by exporting for review.” He added that VenioOne also eliminates the task of having to go back to the processing or culling of applications and retrieving additional data to export to an external review tool.

Thapa said VenioOne will be beneficial to law firm clients in several ways, which includes “enabling clients to handle smaller projects in-house on their own infrastructure and to share larger projects and central repositories with service providers, as well as clients and co-counsel.” He added that “using one tool will make pricing a whole lot easier, whether drafting budgets for clients or making proportionality arguments.”

The company said VenioOne’s security is guaranteed through multiple levels of security, which allows every feature in VenioOne to be controlled granularly by using group rights and user rights. “This user and group security can be linked with active directory to reduce administrative overhead. VenioOne also supports multi-factor authentication as well as SSL to safeguard the data,” explained Thapa.

Venio is also set to host LegalTech New York’s emerging technologies panel, “Ethics: Choosing the Cloud,” in Hilton’s Sutton Center on Feb. 3 at 1:15 p.m. Thapa and Venio’s vice president of education and training, Babs Deacon, will be joined by Indicium Law’s Eric Mandel and Ricoh’s David Greetham, to discuss the emerging track CLE session. Attendees of this session can also earn ethics CLE credits.

“The panel will focus on the emergence of cloud as a powerful way for attorneys and their clients to lower IT over-head and an attorney’s ethical responsibilities related to assessing discovery hosting options,” said Thapa. He added that it will also outline a checklist for being an ethical and educated consumer. “Consumers—especially attorneys having special, ethical obligations—need to understand the impact of cloud on eDiscovery management,” he said.

Thapa noted that Venio will also be providing a sneak preview of Venio On Demand, a self-service eDiscovery solution. “This cloud-based solution, which requires no training, will allow law firms and corporations to take control of their eDiscovery cost without any additional investment in hardware, e-Discovery software, or IT staff,” he told Legaltech News.
