Extracts from two recent articles highlighting eDiscovery software vendor positioning, pricing, and processing as published by The Project Counsel Group

ARTICLE #1  

Part 2: Predictive Coding Faces the Dreaded S-Curve, eDiscovery Goes Back Home…and the Cloud Becomes SO Important

By Gregory Bufithis – Founder of GB Media, The Project Counsel Group, and The Vellios Foundation

In my view, the real eDiscovery cloud battle will be between kCura (RelativityOne) and Logikcull.  Call it “The Battle of the Titans”. Or “Microsoft (kCura) vs Apple (Logikcull)”. Clearly, kCura had to up its game as it has faced the mounting competitive onslaught of Logikcull.

I had the opportunity to be a fly-on-the-wall when a U.S. client let me sit through two presentations, one by Logikcull and one by kCura/RelativityOne.  I also had the benefit of a kCura channel partner providing me some pricing information and a Q&A, with mirror disclosures by a Logikcull client.The following information is based on those disclosures and the presentations I heard.



ARTICLE #2

A Deeper Look Into The Cloud and E-Discovery: Some Thoughts on CloudNine

By Eric De Grasse (CTO), Angela Gambetta (Research Director), and Catarina Conti (Media Coordinator)

As Greg points out, Relativity and Logikcull are well known and excellently positioned providers in the market and certainly appear to be well positioned for future success. We would, however, respectfully disagree with him that it is a two-horse race for future market leadership. We think it is a race with one horse definitely being a leader today (Relativity) with many horses in the race. One industry analyst who sent a comment put it like this:

In the words of the jockey that rode a horse with 50:1 odds of winning to victory in the Kentucky Derby (Mine That Bird), “you gotta be in it to win it.”

Many offerings have the attributes necessary to win it, and of those, the fourth generation offerings (designed for eDiscovery, for integration, and for automation) appear to have the best odds for success. CloudNine is one of those horses, not just by our own handicapping, but by affirmation from market surveys, customer reviews, analyst observations, and most importantly, customer acceptance.
