Concordance databases
I have been very pleased with my experience. The support team has also always been very helpful despite the fact that I can't screenshare. We figure it out!
PROSI find Concordance to be the easiest program for creating, updating, and searching databases. I love the fact that I can save a 'snapshot' of my work so I am not duplicating my efforts. The searches I did are listed right there. If I am in the midst of reviewing a large search, the 'snapshot' returns me to the last document I was reviewing in the search. It's great! The ease and swiftness of tagging documents far exceeds my expectations. It is easy to sort documents by date order.
CONSI am thinking hard about what I would change and I can't think of anything at this moment.

My experience with CloudNine has been excellent. Their sales and support are top-notch, helpful, and friendly.
PROSWhat I like about CloudNine Law PreDiscovery is that it is fast, nimble, and flexible. It allows me to take control of my eDiscovery projects, saves me time and the client money by allowing me to do more on projects versus outsourcing them.
CONSWould like to see LAW PreDiscovery further developed to take advantage of more core processing power as computers become more powerful.

CloudNine offers ease of use and exceptional customer support.
Offering a database that any level of experience user could review and perform tasks.
PROSWe really like the functionality and ease of use. We have various levels of database experience users and have found that most, if not all, are extremely comfortable in this database. It removes factors that are not necessary to review and tag/code documents. Also, the customer service and training is superior. You won't find a better trainer.
CONSIt is missing a couple of components that are specific to our litigation. However, I am not sure any of the datatbases out there have these capabilities, yet. If you ask CloudNine to configure something new for you, they will always do their very best. They continually strive to meet your needs.
Vendor Response
Thank you Bradette for the kind review. We are grateful to have the opportunity to support you in your eDiscovery efforts.

Easy to learn, easy to use, great experience so far.
Ease of use in managing complex discovery issues.
PROSLove the UI and the ease of learning the software. It's very intuitive compared with other discovery management software and the attorneys pick it up in no time. It is also very speedy in pulling up docs and moving from one document to the next. No problems experienced in our first discovery project using this software. We were able to customize it to meet our needs nicely. Also love the fact that it's easy for each user to customize their own interface so the most important document coding elements are always at the top of the screen. No need to scroll through long windows of coding selections to find what you are looking for. This software is an outstanding alternative to other discovery management databases on the market, and comes at a great value.
CONSSearches take a bit of work to catch on to, and I didn't really care for the fact that while global tag/field creation is so easy, it's much more difficult to alter or delete a field/tag once it has been created, and this requires admin rights. This was likely done intentionally to prevent users from accidentally deleting things, but I feel like it would be more useful to enable a user on location with some limited admin rights who has the ability to make these sort of alterations rather than the need to escalate a help ticket.
Vendor Response
Thank you for the review, Michael. Great comments and feedback. We will continue to work on providing you and all users the best eDiscovery experience possible.

CONSDocument production can be slow with large source documents when producing to tif images.

CloudNine Review is the Solution for Document Management
CloudNine has been a positive change in our law firm. The technical personnel are responsive and ready to assist. They provide excellent training and, even when an issue gets complicated, are willing to assist so we meet deadlines and our productions are complete. All personnel we have dealt with have been professional and knowledgeable.
PROSCloudNine was very easy to transition to (from Concordance). It is much more user-friendly and intuitive, especially when uploading new documents and productions.
CONSThe only negative I have with CloudNine is the user's inability to change the background coloring. When working for hours at a time on document productions a change of color would relieve eye stress.
Reason for choosing CloudNine
We wanted to move into the cloud and Xera was much higher priced.

CloudNine is intuitive, highly functional, yet maintains a very user friendly interface.
I am able to consult on a higher level with this software in our tool bag.
PROSMy favorite feature is the ability to utilize extracted metadata fields alongside custom fields to run complex searches.
CONSClients are often confused when editing searches from a saved search, and often change the criteria of the saved search as the "saved search window" auto populates and overwrites. I would prefer to be able to lock a search. However, it's typically remedied after several reminders and training sessions.

Being a channel partner to generate a good margin on hosting revenue in reselling the software to our law firm customers!
PROSNew functionality for users to load own data. Quick culling/filtering options to reduce data for review. Easy to use boolean full text and metadata searching. Bulk tagging options reduce review time. Reports to export select data. Unlimited users with no extra charges. Reduced near-ready review storage fees. CloudNine Discovery provides great and responsive 24/7 customer support and always friendly and flexible.

CloudNine: Excellent value and service
I have used CloudNine since the Fall of 2016 to upload and process e-Discovery data. Their staff has been very helpful. The CloudNine document review system is easy to learn and intuitive. It is an excellent value. The one drawback is that the functionality is somewhat basic, although more than robust enough for most smaller scale reviews. The system is ideal for smaller to midsized law firms and corporation. Overall, I am very happy with the system.
PROSIts simplicity and ease of use. If you have used other document review software you will find this easy to pick up with minimal training.
CONSIt's fairly basic. It lacks the more advanced features in the base package. You can add on features such as predictive coding for an additional cost.
Vendor Response
Thanks for the review John. We appreciate your use of CloudNine for your eDiscovery needs and look forward to sharing with you soon new features that will extend the capability of the platform and enhance your ability to leverage it for both basic and complex discovery efforts.

CloudNine Review
I have been using CloudNine for a couple of months, and it is my first experience with e-discovery start-to-finish. I am very pleased with the platform. It is very user-friendly, and everyone, from sales to support and the client services team has been so great to work with. They have been available to answer any question I have, even when I call multiple times in one day; they are even responsive at night, on weekends, and holidays, which is so great when working on an inconvenient deadline. I will be recommending CloudNine to anyone I hear is looking for an e-discovery tool.
PROSI like how intuitive and user-friendly it is. You don't have to have experience with e-discovery tools to be able to use it. I also really like that it is browser-based, so it can be used on almost any device anywhere.
CONSNone so far.

Long-Time User
In the spirit of full disclosure, I was once employed by this company, but have been in-house for several years since and have no current ties with the company or its ownership. I have used the software, and their other services, for many years, through several versions, since. I have also used many other tools over the years, and each have their pros and cons. When I need something that can easily be shared with outside counsel, reviewed by multiple people simultaneously, and provide a fast reliable output, with fairly robust searching, this is my go-to product. The key for me is that the web-based platform makes collaboration across different companies/firms simple and efficient without the requirement for large downloads or additional purchases. The platform is intuitive and I would recommend it for any projects where collaboration is necessary (it is also pretty good for a traditional review but that is not where I use this platform).

CloudNine Discovery is the cat's pajamas
CloudNine routinely impresses me with their superior customer service and automated tools that just work. We regularly upload a lot of data to CloudNine's automated hosting and discovery tool. Their software is easy to use and searching is flexible. Filtering and analytics allow for early data assessment. All of CloudNine's departments are courteous and helpful. Client Services quickly manages productions and dispositions, follows up with documentation for our records, and provides customized support to our clients. Our uploads are followed by automated updates that are handy for passing processing status to our internal teams. Help Desk assists us with all technical items including search logic, syntax, and segmenting for multiple document reviewers. Our Legal folks appreciate the easy-to-use Discovery interface and the quick access to free training. I'm grateful for all CloudNine does to save time and prevent stress.

Search features are very useful. The creation of folders to file different search categories is very good too.
CONSI don't like that a search shows me chain emails. I would be ok to get all emails if the chain changed, but for those that just have identical content, i would live to get the last email in the chain to reduce the search timing.

Amazing People, Great Software
I contacted CloudNine with a last-minute request for help with the hands-on portion of an e-discovery class I taught at the law school with Donna Chesteen. The staff at CloudNine were amazing. They set up a custom data set for the students to search against, and spent time teaching Donna and me the basics of their system, and had us up and running in less than a day. The students were able to quickly learn the search tools and produce meaningful results for purposes of the class with minimal effort. We also demoed other cloud-based software for the class, but the students clearly preferred the CloudNine system. Cloud Nine is straightforward enough to figure out on your own, but powerful enough to handle the most complicated searches. Having seen it in action in the classroom, I am making the switch to CloudNine in my private practice.
