You logged into Purview eDiscovery and found yourself in a whole new user experience (UX). You have a priority hold or collection and need counsel’s buy in on the new search, hold, review and export options. Buried at the end of my Geek Guide page detailing the new portal UX changes is the list below of key decisions that impact even simple investigations. Send [...]
The new Purview Portal UX adds a lot of new functionality and architectural changes. The classic versions are scheduled for decommissioning in January, so Purview users need to get up to speed quick and adapt your workflows. I created a page that calls out the changes, potential impact and recommendations for experienced users. Although I have met with some of the new Microsoft PM [...]
After the Relativity Fest keynote and my interview with Verizon’s Kacey Hall, I decided that I had to make the time to get my hands on Relativity aiR for Review. The labs generally had a line, but they were open during meals. Relativity is one of the few eDiscovery technology companies that gives open access to full documentation and the aiR for Review [...]
Walgreens’s Sr. Counsel and Director of eDiscovery Operations Adam Rouse discussed using Relativity’s integration with Microsoft 365 for collections and legal holds at Relativity Fest. Walgreens’ eDiscovery team evolved from Adam’s prior role supporting compliance and IT security teams. His deep technical background translates to a very tech forward team comfortable with Powershell and other admin tools. While the Walgreens’s team may have more [...]
2024 was my year to attend the great sessions. That was the idea when I got a late start booking briefings and interviews. A last-minute wave of requests derailed most of my session plans, but I wanted to share my summaries and highlights from the few I attended. Did I miss some good ones? Yes, I did. So write up your own highlights to [...]
The 15th Relativity Fest was one of the most highly attended Relativity Fests to date with about 2,000 attendees. Sessions were packed with customers. They actually had to turn away attendees from the packed room at Horrigan’s State of the Union. Market consolidation and other factors may have reduced the number of sponsors, but not the energy level. I managed to chat with [...]

Per last month’s comments, the new Purview Portal Hub UI is the big news. I call EVERYONE’s attention to 415454 (second one below) that the Classic Purview portal will be retired END OF THE YEAR. The new [...]
Reading the actual Patent (US 12,069,151 B2) provides a much clearer picture if you can wade through the rather obtuse patent legalese. It seems clear that this method applies to an enterprise server based patform rather than a SaaS service. They patent and Cellebrite’s handy ‘fact page’ carefully state that remote collection requires device owner notification and consent. I have encountered this same hesitation [...]
327 Updates - 202 in development - 34 rolling out - 83 launched The new Purview eDiscovery portal has rolled out to some tenants in preview mode. The Purview PM team briefed me on it back at LegalWeek and it finally arrived at my test tenant this week. They have definitely gone for a simplified workflow and ‘eliminated’ the Collection searches. Unfortunately, legal holds [...]
With more than 1 million organizations and 320 million monthly users, Teams chats, sites and channels are key eDiscovery targets for legal holds and collections. Despite extensive public documentation, blogs and articles it can be challenging to understand the different types of Teams channels, what they can store and where the ESI is routed. The new Guide Guide on Teams as a source is [...]
