"The enterprise search solution we are building with Microsoft and BA Insight is a truly next-generation platform that blows away everything that I’ve seen from a search perspective inside the enterprise"
Guy Wiggins, Kelley Drye & Warren LLP
Legal professionals must deal with an incredible amount of information from a variety of different sources. To prepare for a given matter, a lawyer might need to access legal memoranda residing in a document management system, gather client and billing information from a practice management application, review email from a number of individuals, and access a service like West km or LexisNexis to gather information about a particular jurisdiction and precedent.
Traditionally, legal professionals must search within each system independently, and manually look through each search result in order to determine relevance. BA Insight's Longitude streamlines this process by enabling a
unified search across all of your firm's document management, records management, billing, CRM and accounting systems, and providing
instant previews of all search result items, regardless of file-type or location.
With Longitude and SharePoint, you can... - Provide your team with a single gateway through which to find and access all information, regardless of format or where it resides
- Deliver client and matter-centric search results, surfacing the most relevant content from every system
- Search for people and content-driven expertise from across the firm
- Provide instant previews of all search result items, with full hit-highlighting and dynamic hit-mapping, for fast and efficient relevance assessment of search results
- Honor all existing security protocols, permission and identity management systems, to ensure only authorized content is surfaced
- Maximize the ROI and extend the value of your line of business applications, such as CRM, billing, experience and matter management systems
