Review: Concordance 10 and E.L. Native Review for Concordance

By Sara Skiff | Tuesday, August 25, 2009

Coming today to TechnoFeature: The word "concordance" implies "harmonious mutual understanding." LexisNexis' new Concordance 10 litigation support software lives up to this billing thanks to its Unicode support. But how well do this and the many other new features work for lawyers knee-deep in discovery documents and transcripts? We asked litigation support expert and longtime Concordance user Paul Easton. Paul ended up delivering a twofer, reviewing both Concordance 10 and Electronic Legal Software's Native Review for Concordance.

Mythbusters: Should Your Law Firm Switch From Windows to Mac?

By Sara Skiff | Tuesday, August 18, 2009

Coming today to TechnoFeature: If your law firm switches to Macs you'll lose about 50 pounds and get to hang out with the cool crowd. That's what Apple's TV advertisements would have you believe.

Legal technology consultant Christel Burris suggests you ignore all the claims and instead focus on real-world usage in law firms and the products that exist on both platforms. In this TechnoFeature article, she engages in some mythbusting based on her experience this year with a law firm that uses both operating systems. What does Christel conclude? Read her analysis to find out.
