ILTA 2011 - That's a Wrap



http://ow.ly/6ere4

Article by Greg Buckles, an eDiscovery industry expert, posted on the eDiscovery Journal website.

This article provides an overview and recap of the recently complete ILTA 2011 conference.  As the author states in his article, "Overall, the mood was upbeat and almost everyone I queried has had a record year. Litigation and discovery readiness spending seems to have recovered from the 2008-2009 lull."


The author discuses some of the hot topics he overheard at ILTA, and mentions Clearwell's new pricing structure, and kCura's latest predictive coding offering.


  In addition, he discusses a panel discussion he moderated which touched on the fact that forensic collection of entire drives is often "overkill".  The article touches on the fact that there is still uncertainty about the acceptance of some of the newly developed technological solutions.  "Most predictive analytics are essentially black box technologies that ask the user to trust complex selection profiles. There is no doubt that we need these technologies to tackle the ever-growing scope of collections, but the panel agreed that the easiest way to mitigate risks was to get the opposing parties agreement on review methods."
