New XML-Based Content Management Solutions Offer
Federal and Commercial Organizations Viable Option for Managing
Information Starting at 10K
April 4, 2005 - McLean, VA - ZyLAB, an innovative developer
of content management and compliance solutions for paper intensive
organizations, today announced at FOSE (Booth #2443) the immediate
availability of its new ZyIMAGE E-mail Management Suite and ZyIMAGE
Legal Productivity Suite. Both solution offerings start at 10K and
provide the right balance of complexity and performance many organizations
are now favoring instead of the more traditional and expensive "buy
all or nothing" approach pushed by many vendors.
ZyIMAGE E-mail Management Suite
The ZyIMAGE E-mail Management Suite offers a smart, scaleable approach
so that users can easily integrate it into larger document lifecycle
management processes, meaning extra storage is not required and
stored information is simple to search for and retrieve. Importantly,
users can select the proper scale for their ZyIMAGE E-mail Management
Suite based upon their actual needs: from basic personal searching
within an existing records management environment to comprehensive,
yet efficient, backup solutions within a broad knowledge management
context.
"The ZyIMAGE E-mail Management Suite is dedicated to simplicity
and affordability without any compromising of performance,"
said Dr. Johannes Scholtes, president of ZyLAB North America LLC.
"It does not play off of the intimidation many users feel about
handling e-mail, a position that can force users to over-compensate
and buy too much of the wrong kind of a solution, particularly in
terms of storage."
Key highlights of the ZyIMAGE E-mail Management Suite include:
- A scaleable approach to managing e-mail; users aren't forced
to buy monolithic, expensive "just store everything"
liability vaults.
- A flexible, open system rather than a rigid, proprietary one.
- The ability for users to search PST files alongside other data,
such as electronic and digitized paper documents.
- Expanded capabilities for enforcing policies and tracking procedural
breaches (e.g. through automated alerting).
- The flexibility to keep or destroy e-mails based on choice rather
than on available mailbox or server space.
- Unique text-mining integration options for even more effective
information tracking and retrieval.
- A structure built to integrate easily with existing platforms
and specialized (professional) tooling. The ZyIMAGE software adjusts/integrates
to what users have in place rather than forcing them to buy huge
system upgrades or spend lots of time reprogramming.
ZyIMAGE Legal Productivity Suite
The ZyIMAGE Legal Productivity Suite's key differentiator is its
ability to handle paper documents during the entire duration of
any case-development process. ZyLAB's unique approach to converting
paper into searchable information allows users to treat paper in
the same way as electronic files such as MS Word, MS Excel, e-mail,
or electronic PDFs. This capability allows users to also use the
advanced discovery tools, such as text mining, on paper documents.
Key usability features that drive the performance of the ZyIMAGE
Legal Productivity Suite include:
ZyLAB Discovery Tool
The new discovery tool offer users advanced text mining, concept
extraction and searching, and transliteration for multi-lingual
environments. Users can also automatically relate facts and entities,
even if certain relationships are not immediate. These additions
save enormous time and cost in the indexing phase.
A flexible array of disclosure features
Legal professionals are constantly faced with finding and organizing
large volumes of information - a time-consuming and expensive process.
With ZyLAB's e-disclosure system, a user can efficiently "shop"
for relevant documents per case within a comprehensive Web-based
repository. After the documents have been located, the user can
add them to a "shopping cart," and at the end of a session,
all the contents of the cart can be downloaded or printed. Downloaded
documents are saved in an open XML format and prints can either
be made on paper or to PDF.
Advanced redaction capabilities
Users can further support their disclosure activities with ZyLAB's
advanced redaction tool. Redactions are stored with documents, so
if redactions are performed on disclosures at different times, the
user can automatically see older redactions.
"Before a case goes to court, an enormous amount of unstructured
and unorganized electronic and paper data needs to be reviewed and
processed by people working on the case," said Scholtes. "Much
of the work involves gathering background data as well as organizing
and cross-referencing information among legal precedents, court
records, testimonies, and so forth. Often, this work is done by
hand and within extremely tight deadlines, which can lead to information
being missed or incorrectly processed, particularly among legal
teams with many members. Both cost effective and easy to use, our
legal productivity tools allow legal professionals to improve the
way they manage information."
