Everything about a collection, start to finish

Discovery Hub follows a discovery request from the legal hold it belongs to, through collection, to delivery and eventual destruction of the data.

Dashboard

A home page that answers “what should I look at first?” for the person signed in.

  • Needs attention. A short list of items that are overdue or have gone wrong, each one a click away from the detail.
  • Headline numbers. Active legal holds, custodians on hold, open requests, share of data sources collected, average turnaround and recent failed collections.
  • Progress and trend. Collection progress across open requests, the next requests due, and requests opened against completed over time.
  • My work. The requests and tasks assigned to you, with due dates.
  • Scoped to the viewer. People see their own requests unless they have permission to see the whole organization.

Request Center

Where a collection request is written, assigned and worked.

  • Start from a hold. Search for the legal hold and build the request against it, on your own behalf or for someone else.
  • Say exactly what is needed. Add custodians and the data types for each, with date ranges, keywords and comments.
  • Data without a single owner. Request non-custodial sources, such as shared locations, in the same request.
  • Delivery details. Set priority, due date, where the data should be produced and how it should be delivered.
  • Assignment and notifications. Requests go to collectors, with email notifications to the people you choose.
  • Track every data source. Collectors record each collection, note failures, reuse earlier collections where they already exist, and reopen a request if more is needed.

Collection records

The running record of what has been collected, for whom, and what happened to it.

  • Three views of the same record. Collections by employee, by group, and by non-custodial data source.
  • Failed collections. A list of collections that could not be completed, and why.
  • Destroyed collections. A log of collected data that has been destroyed, ready to export.
  • Close-matter reporting. A report of what was collected for a matter when it closes.
  • Storage and production locations. Keep the list of places data is stored and delivered to, managed by administrators.

Litigation holds

Holds and custodians, next to the collections made for them.

  • Litigation Hold Center. A list of holds, with closed holds available when you need them.
  • Custodians per hold. Open a hold to see who is on it.
  • Collections across holds. Select several holds and view their collections together.

Employee 360

Everything discovery needs to know about one person, on one page.

  • Identity and organization. Role, department and manager, with a click through to the manager and an organization chart.
  • Where their data lives. Mailbox and file storage details, directory groups, and the devices assigned to them.
  • Hold history. Current legal holds, and released ones when you ask for them.
  • Past collections. What has already been collected from this person.
  • Search that scales. Find people by name, email, username or employee ID, or paste a list to look up many at once.

Administration and access

Control over who can do what, and a record of what changed.

  • Detailed permissions. Roles and individual permissions decide which pages and actions each person gets.
  • Sign-in your way. Windows sign-in or single sign-on through your identity provider using OpenID Connect.
  • Session control. Idle timeout with a warning, a maximum session length, and a log of sign-ins.
  • Lists you can shape. Each person can choose and order the columns they see. Administrators set the default view, with a history of changes.
  • Export anywhere. Every list exports to Excel or CSV, matching the columns, filter and sort on screen.
  • Settings without a developer. Collectors, data types, locations and application settings are managed in the app.
