I have had a very positive experience working with the Lexbe eDiscovery Platform and their employees
The software is very helpful in making Discovery easy for processing, review and production. It allows me to easily handle most jobs individually with the option of offering services to assist on larger or more difficult cases.
Pros
Some of the great advantages of using Lexbe include vast data types supported, multiple options for data processing and production, and a user friendly interface allowing for easy document review. Lexbe offers amazing customer support including training and monthly webinars as well as a very knowledgeable staff that goes out of the way to meet your firm's needs. They also offer great rates to be flexible with your firms storage needs and no additional charges for uploading and other common fees that you would incur if using a competitors platform.
Cons
Depending on site traffic, data formats, and file sizes sometimes the data processing can be slightly time consuming for uploading collections or downloading productions. However, this is the case with any program and the Lexbe support experts are very helpful in moving the process along.

Patrick, thank you for feedback and the review. As you stated, upload and download speeds can depend on file size and type, and I'm glad we have been able to move the process along for you in the past. We encourage clients to reach out to our Professional Services staff when a rush job is needed as they can monitor progress from the beginning and intervene as needed.

Fantastic for organizing, analyzing, and sharing documents
Pros
The automatic OCR function, which makes high volumes of documents easily searchable, coupled with the degree of customization for tagging and the ease of sharing cloud-hosted documents among team members makes Lexbe a stellar tool for analyzing, organizing, and collaborating on case document collections, no matter how vast the universe of documents.
Cons
The production features could be improved. Namely, the privilege marking, placeholder production when encountering incompatible document formats or otherwise problematic files, and the length of time it takes for the system to process and Bates stamp a production can be frustrating, time consuming, and occasionally lead to discovery disputes between parties.

Response from Lexbe
Replied February 2019
Earl, thank you for the review and feedback. We take client feedback very serious and are constantly implementing changes to improve the Lexbe eDiscovery Platform. The time it takes for a production to run can vary depending on file size and type. Our target is for all producitons to run with one business day and the vast majority run in that time frame. When possible, we encourage planning to run a production a few days before the deadline to allow time in the event unforseen issues arise. With that said, we also understand time is of the essance and encourage clients to reach out to our Professional Services staff when a rush job arises so that they can monitor progress from the beginning and intervene as needed. Production placeholders do occur at times when a file cannot be auto-converted, but the original version of the document is provided in the Originals folder as supplement and that will typically fulfill discovery needs. Please let us know if you run into this again.

Lexbe is an AMAZING COMPANY!
Lexbe has been improving over time. It has the unique benefit of being ADA accessible! It is inexpensive and easy to use. Training is as frequent as needed. They provide a lot of documentation and resources.
Pros
Lexbe is very responsive to requests for improvement/change to their website. They are easy to use and getting better all the time!
Cons
Some features like document redaction and splitting are clunky. Sometimes hard to get it to sort the way you want.

Non-User Friendly and Not Worth the Cost
This software was not practical or user friendly for a law firm. It made the discovery process much more complex than it should have been for production of 50,000 documents. Additionally, we were charged an hourly rate for support (with no disclosure of the fees) when we needed help correcting issues the software created.
Pros
The best thing about this software was the demonstration during the sales pitch, which made it seem like an incredible software which would be highly user friendly and beneficial to my clients and practice.
Cons
* Review of documents did not flow smoothly - lots of time scrolling and clicking to review * For production it forced us to produce the native PDF as well as the bates numbered PDF (confusing for counsel and duplicative) * On PST files, attachments were loaded into the bates numbered documents as "placeholders" leaving opposing counsel to guess which native email each bates numbered email went to in order to locate the attachments. * Opposing counsel could not open the files from the production links

I use Lexbe mostly for producing discovery; despite some hangups, it makes my job a lot easier
Pros
Simple, easy to use interface, especially since latest update Document production & bates stamping quick and easy
Cons
Search functionality is imprecise: occasionally returns false positives Batch document uploading can be a headache, esp. if produced outside of Lexbe; often has to be handled by Technical Services (who are always helpful)

Response from Lexbe
Replied February 2019
Connor, thanks for the review. We highly encourage that you report false positive search hits to our Professional Services (PS) department. Providing an example document and search term where this happened allows them to attempt to replicate the behavior and report it directly to the software department for investigation. Alternatively, the Lexbe eDiscovery Platform does have multiple search options so the PS staff will also be able to advise if the correct option was selected. Uploading productions with corresponding loadfiles is an indepth process. It can techinically be done DIY and with intermediate excel skills, but our Professional Services staff is very experienced in this process and can upload the productions fast and accurate, not to mention for free if you are on a Subscription Plan. It is our understanding that most platforms require vendor intervention for these production uploads.

I like that the program processes the data at a rapid pace.
Pros
I like that the program processes the data at a rapid pace while grouping emails and attachments together. It makes reviewing documents easier with many shortcuts!
Cons
Too many clicks in the document review process. The way the platform looks now is not appealing to the eye.

Lexbe is a great do-it-yourself product for e-discovery in a mid-sized law firm
I am able to quickly, efficiently and cost effectively handle my own e-discovery needs!
Pros
Being able to control my own database! Uploading my documents and being able to work in the database on my time, with no vendor related lag time. Lexbe is very user friendly and cost effective.
Cons
Adobe fillable forms and certified signature forms won't load into the viewers. Unfortunately, you don't know how many of those you have in a data set until after they are loaded and processed with place holders. But Lexbe allows you to easily run a report to identify those problem documents.

Response from Lexbe
Replied February 2019
Rebecca, thank you for the review. We are glad we have been able to assist in identifying these un-converted forms. These types of layered PDFs can be reviewed from the Original tab. By default, the Lexbe eDiscovery platform provides corresponding original files as supplement in all standard productions, so these types of files can be produced as well. In the event that the PDFs are desired to display in the PDF tab, they can be converted offline and merged into the PDF tab with the Original tab still maintaining the fillable version.

easy to learn, great customer support
We can easily store and find all the documents from our many cases and access them instantly from different computers. Finally moved us away from emailing documents to each other or storing them on several flash drives.
Pros
I love being able to contact Lexbe whenever I have any questions. Their customer service team is incredibly nice, quick, and helpful.
Cons
Some parts of the platform are not immediately intuitive but pretty easy to learn over time. It can be a little harder to learn for people who aren't used to working on computers all the time.

Recently switched from another e-discovery platform and we're very pleased with Lexbe so far
more efficient e-discovery process
Pros
Being able to upload our own cases and documents, knowing we have almost full control to work in the portal independently so we won't be charged if we don't want to be for professional service hours. Automatic OCR and the search abilities have significantly enhanced our e-discovery process. Being able to unredact redactions that we had previously made.
Cons
The only minor thing we don't like is that the redaction boxes are white/"x" and not black. We prefer black but that's a personal preference point. We've also already submitted a feature request, which is really nice that Lexbe takes user feedback seriously.

Lexbe eDiscovery
Pros
It was self explanatory and wasn't hard to figure out what you were looking for. I like that it is secure and no worries. And if you have problems no matter what time you have consultants available to help you.
Cons
I didn't really find anything I didn't like yet. I haven't been using it that long.

Okay product.
Pros
It's relatively easy to use. Sometimes it runs very fast. Easy to upload files. Easy to make folders and tags.
Cons
Buggy. Sometimes slow. Has functionality flaws that sometimes make it difficult to use. For example, you can't redact things that are larger than the normal size paper, bc the redaction viewer is too small.

Good but not perfect. I've had issues finding the pages of documents containing my search term
Pros
That is is cloud based and pretty speedy, I can easily save documents to my desktop, can easily switch from one library to another
Cons
Search functionality could be improved. Could make it easier to access info about the library (number of docs, pages, etc). Could be better programmed to let me save notes and view documents with notes on them, or mark a document 'hot' without having to add a note

Response from Lexbe
Replied February 2019
Catherine, thank you for the review. After a search is run, the total document hit count appears in the top banner. The fields displayed on the Search page can be adjusted and Page Count is an available field. The Lexbe eDiscovery Platform (LEP) has a built in Hot Doc tag that works independently of Notes. Notes can be added to an individual document when it is displayed in the Doc Viewer and is also an available filter so one can isolate all documents with Notes on them. Our Professional Services staff is always on call, so we recommend reaching out with any questions as they are very knowledgable and are extremely helpful in explaining the functionality of LEP.

Great bang for your buck
PROS: * Value. Lexbe is a very inexpensive and cost-effective e-discovery solution, such that even solo practitioners and small law firms can use it on a day-to-day basis without breaking the bank. * Functionality. The platform has all the features one needs to satisfy basic ESI processing/production needs, and most of the advanced features of its larger competitors. * Speed. Lexbe has a very quick turnaround on processing, searches, and production runs. * Mobility. Because Lexbe is a hosted solution, a user can search for and retrieve documents from anywhere (which comes in very handy when one needs a document on the fly, such as during a deposition or hearing). * Support. Lexbe staff respond to inquiries quickly and knowledgeably. * Contextual help links. Lexbe's Help link immediately pulls up support articles related to what the user actually sees on his or her screen. While this feature may sound simple, this eliminates the headaches of trying to find the right help article for a problem. Cons: * The Lexbe interface is not as aesthetically pleasing or intuitive as many competitors.

An excellent platform for a mid-size law firm with an excellent price point and customer service.
Pros
Ease of uses, very logical organization of data and tasks. Searching is easy and all work from ingestion to production can be done in-house.
Cons
The custom was tagging is difficult to work with, easy once you work with it for a bit, unfortunately, you aren't able to organize them.

Replied February 2019
Kristine, thank you for the review. We have made some updates to our custom tag management page and all custom tags can be moved and edited after creation. We have also made an update that allows for creating custom tag and sections 'on the fly' from the Browse and Search pages. We hope you find these updates helpful!

Only use Lexbe for one case right. Document review is relatively easy.
Pros
The redaction function is straightforward and easy to use. Production is also efficient and not too complicated.
Cons
There is a limit to the size of documents you can upload at once into the system unless you want to pay more for it. This causes the documents to be divided up into different groups and hard to maintain.

Response from Lexbe
Replied February 2019
Scott, thank you for the review. The DIY upload via drag and drop is dependent on size and user's network settings. We don't have a limitation on the size of documents that can be uploaded. The Browse screen will display all documents in the case and there are several ways to organize and group documents besides upload batch--Custodians, Doc Source, Custom tags, etc., all of which can be filtered for on the Browse screen. In the event that you have a bulk data set that requires to be uploaded as one batch, please feel free to reach out to our Professional Services staff as they can perform the upload on their end. If you have a Subscription plan, standard uploads are free and handled by Lexbe Professional Services. You can send us your drive, FTP, etc.
