Unifying E-Discovery on a Single Platform
According to the 2012 Magic Quadrant for E-Discovery Software, enterprises are moving towards e-discovery implementations that deliver full EDRM functionality. Exterro Fusion delivers this full functionality with seamless integrations via the Fusion Integration Hub™ in three key areas:
- IT Infrastructure - HR, asset management, matter management, single sign-on, Lightweight Discovery Access Protocol (LDAP) and other critical IT systems ensures users are alerted when key changes occur in other systems.
- Data Sources - Exterro Fusion's ESI connectors facilitate inspection and searching of files and metadata to help evaluate collection efforts and locate responsive ESI.
- EDRM Tools - Full-featured, bi-directional adapters, architected with partners, enable closed-loop integrations with EDRM tools, such as collection and multi-party review.
Exterro's newest adapters further advance this functionality with the following:
- IT Asset Management: ServiceNow IT Asset Management (ITAM) - Exterro Fusion now offers an out-of-the box adaptor for ServiceNow ITAM, a popular, cloud-based system that maintains extensive attribute information about custodial and non-custodial data sources, such as email, share drives, archives, desktops and laptops. Through the integration, asset information stored in ServiceNow ITAM is automatically harvested and uploaded into Exterro Fusion, reducing the risk of missing potentially relevant evidence.
- Collaboration - VMware Zimbra - Enterprise collaboration applications manage email, address books, calendars and chat logs that frequently contain ESI relevant to discovery. Exterro Fusion now includes a data connector to assess and collect ESI stored in Zimbra, an enterprise-class email, calendar and collaboration solution.
