According to OpenText, these solutions will help clients:
- Securely manage legal content and automate processes: balancing security with access, users can effectively manage sensitive documents and leverage them for repeatable processes.

- Forensically collect evidence: collect data from electronic devices while adhering to applicable laws.
- Expedite large-scale eDiscovery review and investigations: machine learning assists with the extensive processing of documents while ensuring compliance.
