Latest Innovations Underscore Rapid Development Momentum for the Daegis Edge eDiscovery Platform

SAN FRANCISCO--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Daegis (NAS: DAEG) , a leading provider of eDiscovery solutions, today announced the latest release of Daegis Edge, its innovative eDiscovery platform used by legal professionals for the collection, preservation, processing, review, analysis and production of data. The new version includes a high resolution, high performance document viewer that accurately represents native documents for rapid and optimized browser-based review, without plugins or desktop applications. This innovative new feature allows reviewers to rapidly review complex documents like high resolution graphics, charts and spreadsheets the way they were meant to be viewed, using Daegis Edge's advanced review functionality.


"Today's release of Daegis Edge includes many innovations to improve our clients' experience, and are among the hundreds of changes we've made to the platform in the past year alone that put Daegis Edge at the forefront of solutions for the eDiscovery industry," says Deborah Jillson, President of Daegis. "The features we've enhanced in Daegis Edge - and those we have planned for the future - have been designed to anticipate the changing needs of legal professionals while accommodating new dynamics such as Big Data and mobile discovery. As we move through the year we will continue to deliver on our development strategy as we work to create a truly end-to-end eDiscovery experience for our customers."

Highlights of the latest version include:

  • More accurate review of any document using a new document review tab that allows reviewers to better view every document, especially those with graphics or those in PowerPoint and Excel files.

  • An accelerated review process to redact and annotate directly in the document view tab.

  • Expanded local batch printing allowing users to batch up a large group of documents, download them to PDF and print them locally when hard copy is requested.
