TeamDesk

TeamDesk is a phenomenal service for our practice. Each legal practice area has unique characteristics that are important to successful practice. Generalized practice management services do address those unique elements because they are created for a mass audience. What makes TeamDesk so helpful is that it can be customized to account for any unique issue that we confront. We use TeamDesk for matter management. It can handle general issues like billing, matter notes, etc.; but it also allows us to track specific details unique to our practice area across each matter and make comparisons that are useful to our practice. Additionally, we have been able to customize it to facilitate our client development efforts.

• The ease of customization has been very helpful. As we use the system longer and decide what works for us and what needs changed, it's a matter of moments to be able to make any desired changes. Much more flexible than anything else we've used in the past.
• The customer service has been excellent. Any issues that have arisen have been quickly and fully addressed.

Incentivized

• The only down side that I see, is that you have to be willing to spend some time creating your database. You start with a blank canvas and all the tools you need to design a custom database. But, you have to take the time to do it. If you take that time, it is well worth it.

They are simply amazing. Very fast, like I have a personal support person standing by for me and always solves my problem in one go.

Prior to Teamdesk we used Excel, an Access database, an online time and expense tracking system, and Dabble DB. Excel and Access had limitations with simultaneous access on the LAN, the online T&E system did only that and was not flexible, and Dabble was flexible, but how can you rely on a company whose goal is to exit, when you want to run your business on their platform. Teamdesk has everything we need.

• We are just starting, but I believe it will help to manage our projects more effectively and organize our documents better.
