Q1 2023 Microsoft rolled out the Teams Copilot Recap feature for customers with E5 and Copilot licenses. Most of my global corporate clients are still balancing the user demand for meeting recordings/transcripts against their potential cost/risk downstream. This is complicated by the potential Copilot generated recap summaries, action items/tasks and real time answers. So how can you manage retention and discovery of meeting related [...]
Hanzo’s new CEO Sarai Schubert clearly articulated Hanzo’s shift from compliance archiving to unified navigation and access of diverse collaborative enterprise sources.

Familiar eDiscovery rock stars Elie Francis (Driven/One Discovery) and Doug Kaminski (Relativity/Consilio) joining [...]

A moment’s reflection on the data source growth trends and bonfire cases I supported this year said, “Email is dead, long live [...]
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 [...]
128 new updates were launched or rolling out in September! View my take on those with potential eDiscovery Impact and my comments at my Roadmap table.
