PASADENA, Calif., June 7, 2007 (PRIME NEWSWIRE) -- Guidance Software Inc. (Nasdaq:GUID), The World Leader in Digital Investigations(tm), today announced the upcoming release of the eDiscovery solution, EnCase(r) eDiscovery Suite. eDiscovery Suite v2 leverages the power of Guidance Software's flagship product, EnCase Enterprise, so that organizations can efficiently address eDiscovery in-house. eDiscovery Suite users can search, identify, cull, collect and process electronically stored information (ESI) across the enterprise, addressing several core requirements of the eDiscovery process, reducing risk, and achieving a substantial return on investment (ROI) with cost savings of up to 90 percent.
EnCase eDiscovery Suite v2 is designed for organizations seeking to dramatically improve the practice of eDiscovery with an in-house alternative both to the traditional methods of outsourcing and the risky, difficult-to-defend approach of custodian self-collection. EnCase eDiscovery Suite's uniquely integrated and scalable solution eliminates the substantial waste of time and money of traditional eDiscovery methods because organizations can search and cull at the point of collection, collect and preserve only relevant data, and process the data for attorney review.
EnCase eDiscovery Suite v2 provides an effective and global in-house eDiscovery solution with its strong chain of custody, the ability to quickly search, cull and collect ESI and email across the enterprise from a centralized location, and the ability to search and collect from remote devices, including laptops and removable media. eDiscovery Suite also processes the data and creates load files for the leading attorney review platforms. New and enhanced features incorporated into EnCase eDiscovery Suite v2 include:
-- Comprehensive Chain-of-Custody and Preservation Database. -- Pushbutton Load File Creation -- Enhanced Search, Collection and Preservation Capabilities -- Enhanced Email Collection
EnCase eDiscovery Suite v2 will be available this June. For more information or to download the EnCase Legal Journal that outlines EnCase Software's extensive case law, please visit www.GuidanceSoftware.com.
