Cloud Essentials is a leading provider of cloud migration and information governance solutions to enterprises throughout the UK and EMEA, with extensive experience in delivering solutions to large customers, including law firms, banks, insurance companies and government agencies.
Adams & Adams, a law firm with over 600 employees, has built a longstanding relationship with Cloud Essentials. When it wanted to replace its aging on-premises document management solution, the law firm asked for guidance. After evaluating the market, and having selected Office 365 as their preferred solution, they decided that only Repstor could offer an affordable, intuitive and fully Microsoft Office 365-integrated matter management platform.;new advadsCfpAd( 163650 );;new advadsCfpAd( 163901 );;new advadsCfpAd( 156117 );;new advadsCfpAd( 163650 );;new advadsCfpAd( 163901 );( window.advanced_ads_ready || jQuery( document ).ready ).call( null, function() {var $legalslider491639177 = jQuery( “.legal-slider-491639177” );$legalslider491639177.on( “unslider.ready”, function() { jQuery( “div.custom-slider ul li” ).css( “display”, “block” ); });$legalslider491639177.unslider({ delay:10000, autoplay:true, nav:false, arrows:false, infinite:true });$legalslider491639177.on(“mouseover”, function(){$legalslider491639177.unslider(“stop”);}).on(“mouseout”, function() {$legalslider491639177.unslider(“start”);});});
“Custodian for Legal has outstanding functionality – it is a class above the other products out there and it integrates so seamlessly with Outlook that our users barely know it is even there,” explains Colin Short, CIO, Adams & Adams. “It also allowed us to standardise our processes across practice areas, saving significant time and money.”
Custodian for Legal enables Adams & Adams to track, trace and retrieve documents in an instant. For a firm that sends and receives somewhere in the region of one million emails per month, that transparency and speed is crucial. It also ensures that lawyers can work securely from their phone or laptop with minimal configuration and no need for costly and complicated VPNs.
“Our environment is critical but complex with a huge set of documents. Repstor allows us to navigate that complexity with confidence,” adds Short. “As we move through the deployment, we have been greatly reassured by Repstor’s ability to meet deadlines within budget – they have been brilliant since day one and give us a personal service often lacking in other vendors.”
Recent wins for Repstor include Network Rail, in collaboration with Konexo Global, Eversheds Sutherland’s newly rebranded alternative legal and compliance services division, and tax law firm Atlas.
