The best web-based software for case management!

We have been using it for almost a year now and don't have any regrets about switching over.

PROS

Very user-friendly. We can access it from any device. The attorneys can easily assign tasks to paralegals and legal staff. Everyone uses the notes feature to see the current status of the case is.

CONS

Any issue we've had we've emailed [SENSITIVE CONTENT] and his team and they have worked to fix it.

Reasons for switching to backdocket

We wanted a cloud-based case management software. Our old software was only accessible from our work PC as it was linked to our server. During COVID shutdowns we weren't able to access it from our home computers.

Vendor Response

Thank you for the kind words. You and your team are great to work with. We appreciate you taking this journey with us while we continue to grow our offering!

Way better than other file management software

LOVE!!! The customer service is AMAZING. These people care whether the software is meeting your unique needs. They respond quickly and have tons of VIDEOS to walk you through what you don't know, so you don't have to waste valuable time calling a tech person or googling what to try.

PROS

I love that it displays all documents in the case file as once, as opposed to similar file management software that requires you to click on each folder in order to see its contents. I used to waste so much time clicking through empty folders looking to case documents. This software makes managing cases a breeze.

CONS

This may already be a feature that I have not learned to properly utilize yet, but file sharing via link (like you can in dropbox) would be great.

Vendor Response

I don't know why a sharing link never occurred to us. Another great example of user feedback driving the product! We will have this feature in production by the end of the week!

The Best of the Rest!

I have used 4-5 of the major players in case management software in the past, and BackDocket is by far the best case management software that I have ever used. It has all of the features necessary to manage client matters as well as firm management. The price is extremely affordable, and the support staff is highly responsive, which is more than I can say for other softwares.

PROS

Software is easy to use and customize. There are so many great features built in already, but the reporting feature allows me to build any reports I need to track something individually. Reporting and Dashboards are second to none. Support is very responsive and is quick to build in new features.

CONS

I don't have anything bad to say about the software. The support team is highly responsive and easy to work with.

Reasons for switching to backdocket

Our firm required more personalized reporting and customisability

Best legal management software on the market

Backdocket has allowed me with single touches of a button to access, manage and efficiently work on a client's file. It's a one stop shop and I don't have to juggle opening different programs to look for something in a client's file. It's all managed in one easy access file.

PROS

I love everything about Backdocket. It is so user friendly and very easy to learn. It helps me to manage client files efficiently.

CONS

I love everything about Backdocket. It was very well thought out and simplified for easy use and access.

Reasons for switching to backdocket

To be more efficient.

Vendor Response

We can't thank you enough for the review. You have been a fantastic advocate and we appreciate your feedback. Every suggestion helps us improve the product.

Intuitive, efficient, and productive case management with an incredible support team and programmers

PROS

Backdocket is both intuitive and easy to use. The administration is easy and most importantly, forgiving. As an incredible bonus, the support team and programmers are tremendous! They think with the end-user in mind, are quick to resolve issues and deploy legitimate product enhancements/features.

CONS

Currently, the software does not have email integration, but it is on the roadmap for inclusion soon.

Vendor Response

Thank you for the kind words and the support. We will continue to grow the software based on user feedback and needs. We look forward to working with you, now and in the future.

Great software at a great price

Backdocket has been an easy and cost-effective way for my firm to manage its cases. The set-up process was smooth and simple and if issues arise or if I have questions on how to do something, the support I've received has been top notch.

PROS

The best thing about backdocket, besides the ease of use, is the price.

CONS

I wish there was an add-in feature with Outlook so that my emails could automatically be copied into the notes section of backdocket. Also, syncing with QuickBooks Online would be very helpful.

Vendor Response

You are in luck! We are feverishly working on a communications module that will allow you send/receive Texts and Emails directly from backdocket. You will also be able to use our advanced search to schedule mass emails/texts. The communication module will include add-ins for Outlook and Google. This allows you to work in those tools and keep backdocket in the know. The QuickBooks integration will be following quickly on the heels of the Communication Module. Thank you for your continued support!

Customizable, Affordable, and Still Easy to Use

PROS

Backdocket has all of the features that you expect from a Practice Management System: Case Management, Contact Management, Task Management, Calendaring, Marketing Management. What really sets this platform apart is their ability to create custom fields, put them where you want them, and then quickly write custom reports against them.

CONS

They are a young system and they are currently adding new features. At this point in time, they do not have the ability to text from the software, but it is on their road map.
