Unify™ users can...

Review faster.
Unify™ reviewers are capable of reviewing and classifying more than 150 documents per hour, making it the fastest review tool in the industry.  Since document reviewers do not suspend billing while waiting for documents to load, Unify™ provides a significant and quantifiable savings over other review technologies.

Work in any language.
Unify™ can display and search more than 150 different languages, including Chinese Japanese, and Korean. Unify™ automatically detects the language of origin and indexes the document, allowing for more efficient searching and more effective assigning of documents.

Be up and running in minutes.
Users can learn to use Unify™ quickly with minimal training, increasing project velocity and cost efficiency by minimizing training time.

Report, analyze and make better decisions.
Unify™ provides collection statistics in graphical format using metadata and user created information. Automated reports allow managers to monitor progress and ensure efficiency and quality.

Organize documents for productivity and consistency.
Documents can be grouped and assigned based on any review strategy.  Unify™ can cluster similar documents (near duplicates); handle search by word or Boolean string; maintain email threads; and find related documents at the touch of a button. Reviewers can review similar documents simultaneously, increasing review speed (and reducing review costs) exponentially.

Review in any file format.
Unify™ is able to host multi-lingual email, electronic files, and even OCR’d scanned images in their original, native format. The full content of all documents is displayed within Unify™’s review screen, enabling reviewers to see edits in documents and directly access embedded metadata such as hidden columns in spreadsheets. Reviewers can also review documents in traditional formats such as TIF and PDF. Fewer conversions result in lower costs, and reviewers can make more intelligent decisions with more information about each document at their fingertips.

Produce documents on-command.
Documents can be produced anytime, allowing management of rolling production or unexpected demands. Take comfort in state-of-the-art security. All customer data is maintained in a SAS 70 Type II certified facility, which is monitored by closed circuit television and manned 24/7 by security staff.

Control access rights.
Managers can assign user rights to specific individuals in order to limit or expand their ability to read, modify and enter information. Rights management also allows sharing of information with co-counsel and/or experts without disclosing work product.

Create privilege logs automatically.
Privilege logs are automatically generated to ensure accuracy and timeliness.

Access from anywhere.
Attorneys and review teams can access the database securely from anywhere via the internet or a remote desktop connection, providing even greater speed while minimizing the risk of leaving sensitive documents on users’ computers.

Live 24/7 customer support.

Unify Key Features…

Global Language Support.
Unify™ supports more than 150 different languages and includes full Asian language capability.

Near Duplicate Identification and Threads.
Unify™’s near duplicate identification allows review teams to search, group and assign highly related content for review. Similarly, it gives reviewers the efficiency of reviewing — and even bulk tagging — documents that have a requisite threshold of similarity or are part of the same conversation. The level of similarity used is flexible and can be narrowed or expanded during the course of the case.

Managing.
Managers can view document collection statistics by custodian, document type, unique vs. duplicate documents, reviewer progress, responsiveness rates, and more. Unify™ tracks progress and accuracy of the review project. Graphs display the total document collection, documents reviewed, and documents not reviewed on a per-reviewer or per-collection basis.

Reviewing.
Unify™’s review screen is designed to give reviewers the optimal amount of real estate for efficient reading of documents. A scroll down bar acts as a replacement for the page down functionality, which allows the user to quickly read through each document. Unify™ also provides an easily accessible view for creating reviewer notes.

Hit Highlighting.
Unify™’s hit highlighting lets the user select from a pick-list of previously run and saved searches and view highlighted terms in the document to provide the ability to more carefully review documents for confidentiality, privilege, relevance and issues during the first pass.

Flexible Interface.
Unify™ provides administrators with the ability to design their own coding forms in order to create an interface that works best for their particular matter.

Searching.
Unify™’s search capabilities are powerful, flexible and include the ability to search by word, Boolean string or relationship.  Using Unify™’s unique relational search engine allows the user to find all related documents in the data set, even those that share no words.

Flexible and Powerful Tagging.
Unify™ allows the user to create their own confidentiality and privilege designations and issue tags, and Unify™’s bulk tagging feature allows documents to be tagged based on file extensions or fields for responsiveness, confidentiality, privilege, and client-specified issues, significantly speeding the review process.

Advanced redacting.
Unify™ allows the user to redact their documents quickly and easily, including the ability for the reviewer to mark sections of documents for exclusion while still allowing them to read the language that is being omitted.

No-Cost Project Management and Training.
Unify™ users receive the value of Iris’ outstanding project management and training services at no additional cost.
