Before shortlisting, verify that your organization has the technical capacity to support user training—the platform requires hands-on onboarding to use advanced features effectively. Check whether your current data sources (email systems, file ...Read more

Great Product

What do you like best? I am in IT and support this product for our legal team. Exterro has the best support that I have ever had the pleasure of working with. We are currently moving from on Prem to the cloud and I am looking forward to this transition. If we have any technical issues support is extremely quick to respond to any question or concern any staff members have. Even if it's a very simple question, the responses are excellent! What do you dislike? I honestly haven't had ...

Exterro: Legal hold management

What do you like best? The reporting feature is great - love that you can customize a report and receive them automatically on a set schedule. ECMs is a valuable feature as well. What do you dislike? It would be nice to have a search feature to find particular legal holds given certain keywords. What business problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized? We need more automation as far as custodians receiving required action notifications. ECMs have helped ...

GDLS Integration of Exterro with ELM-TyMetrix

What do you like best? I was strongly impressed by the team response when issues arose. The integration works which was primary in leveraging existing ELM-TyMetrix database. What do you dislike? Timeline that we felt we needed to push. Of significance was the referenced "partnership" with ELM-TyMetrix which was not as seamless as initially believed. Bottom line? A great result for GDLS. Recommendations to others considering the product Project Mgr. and experienced team assigned at the ...

I have been a user for years and have seen the evolution of the product to meet customer needs.

What do you like best? The legal hold and EDDM tools are very powerful and allow for customers to utilize their unique business processes in the tools. Both tools seem to offer more functinality that competitor products. What do you dislike? The software is often very buggy, and there are a number of techinical glitches that prevent the product from working as designed. That being said, the Exterro team actively addresses these issues to get them resolved. What business problems are you ...

Way more than Legal Hold

What do you like best? Modular approach - Exterro offers an end to end solution, but allows clients to purchase it on an a-la-carte basis. If you want less than end to end, you can get it, and modules function well individually. If you want to grow your footprint, new modules are easily integrated. What do you dislike? If you significantly customize the software for your organization's needs, version upgrades can be more arduous than perhaps necessary. However, this should be less of an ...

Review of Exterro Legal Hold Platform

What do you like best? The people at Exterro are knowledgeable in the eDiscovery space, are easy going, friendly and extremely helpful and resourceful. What do you dislike? They have too much turn-over with their employees. Over the years we have had too many project managers and customer reps to count. I like consistency, especially with software support.

Review of Exterro Legal Hold Manager

What do you like best? The Exterro team understands our needs and responds quickly to our requests. The application is intuitive and flexible, while also providing robust features. Their SaaS cloud hosting relieves us of having to have internally hosted infrastructure. What do you dislike? System speed / performance is sometimes slow, particularly when running reports or large queries. Quality assurance for releases and patches could be improved, to ensure complex use-case scenarios are ...
