eDiscovery cases continually grow and shrink. So, pricing plans that charge for data uploads might offer low per-GB rates, but end up being very expensive. Instead, choose a plan that charges for storage only (i.e., uploading is free). It cuts costs and makes eDiscovery so much more flexible.

eDiscovery cases grow and shrink all the time. For example, they grow when you unpack container files and shrink when you delete duplicate/system files. But some eDiscovery pricing systems penalize you for this. The solution? Find eDiscovery software with prorated storage-based pricing.

DeNISTing is how many eDiscovery apps catch and delete unusable files. They compare your case files to a central list of known 'unnecessary' files and delete the ones you won't need. It saves you time, but there's a better solution. Find eDiscovery software that offers free uploading and processing, and you won't need to worry about DeNISTing anymore.

eDiscovery pricing comes down to this: Pay for what you upload (per-GB pricing) OR pay for storage space (fixed-volume pricing). Where possible, pay for storage. Your bill is more predictable and you won't have to pay separately for essentials like OCR, file processing, creating productions, etc.

A 'batch review' lets you allot groups of files to different people. But it works best when you can (1) Allot files, using tags, (2) Allot files, using 'advanced' searches, (3) Include 'file families,' and (4) Have teammates access the batch for free.
