Full of information, and very good Customer Service

Overall, it's great. The ease of retrieving information, and adding files, etc makes it worthwhile. It's also very refreshing to know if you have an issue, the response time is so quick and the guys that call are lovely.

PROS

The speed of response if we have any issues. The fact you can also 'personalise' your own Thread screen to suit your own purposes is great.

CONS

The Billing and Costing area is very hard to use properly - it's just not simple enough for us.

Reason for choosing Thread Legal

There was the option for a weekend 'changeover', so less disruption, and our IT company also put in a good word.

Reasons for switching to Thread Legal

It was generating a few errors, and also because that particular company was changing and will be phasing out it's Case Management system in the future. (We switched from eXpd8 but it wont' let me put it in the bar above!

Thread in our office

It helps running the office to the extent that I cannot imagine running without it. We survived COVID lock-downs thanks to the fact that we introduced Thread in time before it happened. That's how good it is.

PROS

I like the it seamlessly works with the Office package, how it picks up emails from Outlook and produces Word documents. I very much like the way it creates booklets / bundles. It certainly helps to have a responsive team of developers on the other end who listen to your suggestions. The phone messages, the office documents circulation and so on are very much improved thanks to Thread.

CONS

There are some functionalities that do not work the way I would like, e.g. Tasks or Scanned Items.

Reason for choosing Thread Legal

I was familiar with the concept and the company behind it.

Reasons for switching to Thread Legal

The previous product was simply outdated.

Vendor Response

We're thrilled to hear about the seamless integration with the Office package and how our features, like email synchronization and booklet creation, have positively impacted your workflow.

Excellent potential, but not there yet

It has definitely made our job a lot easier in many respects, however it is also very frustrating at times.

PROS

Cloud-based and integrated with Office 365. Very easy to make templates. Developers are responsive to suggestions and many of ours have been implemented.

CONS

It's not at all intuitive so intensive training is necessary. There are numerous bugs and aspects of it regularly become unusable. Impossible to opt out of some "new features" that don't suit us. Visually it is quite unattractive. No mobile app and its mobile website is very difficult to work with.

Reason for choosing Thread Legal

The others were not cloud based

Reasons for switching to Thread Legal

Thread had more of the features that we needed.

Thread Legal Review after 2 and half years of usage

Overall, the experience with Thread has been awesome!

PROS

It acts as a back up for all of the law firm's hard copies and the fact that it works in unison with Microsoft packages, makes our daily work way much easier such that it is very easy to shift from Outlook to the Calendar to other packages such as Word.

CONS

What I have liked the least is the lack of integration of Thread with other billing Software such as TSheets from Quickbooks, which we use to record time entries for our legal staff as well as run bills/invoices. The second thing to work on is that the technical team at Thread Legal have made the "Description" field under "File Details" not searchable, which has made seaching of matters quite difficult because we include extra information in the stated field.

Reason for choosing Thread Legal

The integration of Thread Legal and Microsoft Office 365. This is a great combination. (I have personally used other document management software while working with ither law firms and i can attest to the fact that this integration of Thread Legal and Microsoft Office 365 is a great selling point as it is very unique).(For the question on help when implementing Thread below, [sensitive content hidden] from Thread Legal was phenomenon in guiding us).

Vendor Response
