Logikcull vs. Relativity

Logikcull is well suited to engage a firm from the beginning of the EDRM to the end of the EDRM cycle. It has robust data ingestion functionalities, data processing power, superb metadata, text extraction, and indexing code. It empowers the user to design attorney review platforms to tailor each case and assignment, without going through layers of "Project Managers." It enables a law firm to redirect revenue that had been outsourced to vendors back into the Firm. And with complete internal control, we can turn on any dime. In short, Logikcull is well suited to be the comprehensive answer to E-Discovery requirements within an active litigation practice, from the smallest cases to the terabyte level cases. Support is at the platinum level.

Relativity is well suited for all the eDiscovery workflows. It's excellent for document review, coding, active learning, content and structured analytics, searches, persistent highlights, imaging, and burning redactions into productions. The error rates with processing in Relativity are a little compared to other eDiscovery processing tools in the market. It is solely for document review purposes legal scenarios or otherwise, but it is not a complete solution for building customized hosting nor neither it is a replacement for conventional websites.

• Very powerful tool, but does require a high level of expertise and head count to administer the product.
• If hosting yourself, requires investment in servers and ideally is housed in a data center
• Providers need to pay kCura a monthly user license fee for every user who has access to the tool. Providers can purchase blocks of users, but with a large amount of users on a case, it's cost that some external clients are not thrilled about

The platform and user interface are very intuitive and easy to use. Built-in features obviously come from a team that knows the industry, and it is customizable for all the odd uses, and individual issues we have with each project. I’ve been able to manage things incredibly easily without the use of third-party vendors, and when I hit a snag, the support team is easy to contact and quick to resolve issues.

Relativity is a well established tool that continues to evolve and look for ways to improve. Particular focus on Australian workflows is very promising for us and appreciated. There is a lot of scope for improvement in the processing and PDF workflows but it is great to see Relativity being proactive in those areas

When we evaluated our long-term litigation support solution, we looked at all of the eDiscovery tools on the market. That included looking at in-house solutions, hosted solutions and cloud-based solutions. For our needs, the in-house solution seemed to be the best fit. As such, we did not dig much deeper into any of the cloud-based platforms similar to Logikcull. We were very happy with Logikcull as a cloud-based solution and did not leave because of a problem with the services and product they provided. There were several similar products on the market, but we found that Logikcull was well-suited for what we needed at the time. When we went to the in-house solution, we looked for products that could be similarly situated as the high-powered vendor solutions. I have had one case where we used Relativity hosted by our co-counsel. It is very similar to Eclipse in its functionality. But if you are new to review platforms, you would need a lot of support to use Relativity. Eclipse is much the same. These products are designed for power. They have high-end analytics and can handle anything you throw at them. My primary experience has been with Eclipse. The learning curve for this program is very steep. But once you master it, it has superb power and competes with all of the review platforms on the market.

• One of the issues we had with using Logikcull was the expense. It was difficult for our attorneys to pass along the hard copy expense of paying for the service based on the types of clients we have. Logikcull was very good at trying to help us with this challenge, but in the end, we found that our attorneys were hesitant to use the product because of the fear that there would be a high hard-cost expense that the client would not pay. This was one of the primary reasons we stopped using it. Our firm has the technical personnel and equipment to maintain an eDiscovery platform in-house, so the investment to bring in another product was, for our firm, a better solution for the long run.
• As we were developing our litigation support department, Logikcull was the perfect product for us. It allowed us to provide for our attorneys a review platform when they had the cases that could not be managed without one but also gave us the simplicity we needed as we learned how to provide litigation support services to our legal teams.
