Collect & Hold Made Simple – Start Preserving

Crucial ESI in Minutes With DiscoveryBOT™

DiscoveryBOT™ Case Studies

Beyond standard ESI collections, DiscoveryBOT™ simplifies even the most complex data collection tasks.

 

ROVING SALES TEAM: A company in an intellectual property matter needed to collect data from over a hundred traveling sales team members.  ESI365 and DiscoveryBOT™ were used to collect the custodians’ ESI in just a few days.  Custodians initiated their ESI collections from airports, cafes and hotel rooms using the built in secured and encrypted data transmission features, while continuing to use their computers to carry on their business.  ESI365 tracking allowed stragglers to be quickly identified and contacted.  What once was a complex task that took weeks of work and logistical planning was completed instead in a few days with no interruption of the sales team.

 

INTERNATIONAL COLLECTIONS: A California based tech company needed to collect data from over 300 custodians spread across 17 offices in 15 countries.  Using DiscoveryBOT™, the company completed all the data collections in less than two weeks, without sending a single technician onsite to any of its foreign offices.  What could have been an incredibly expensive and time consuming task was completed in a fraction of the time that a legacy “boots on the ground” approach would have required.

 

HIGH PROFILE CUSTODIAN COLLECTIONS: A Fortune 100 Company needed to collect data from its Board of Directors and was extremely concerned about how to collect data without compromising the security and privacy of data from other companies and organizations they may have had on their computers and within their email.  Using DiscoveryBOT™, the company was able to customize the collection process to enable the targeted collection of just the data pertaining to their activities as Directors for the company, leaving other business and personal data untouched.

 

Centralized Control

DiscoveryBOT™ can be configured to meet the needs of the individual case. Some of the more important features include:
