Solo, Small, and Medium Sized Law Firms

When Warrick McLean took up his role as CEO at Coleman Greig, he knew he wanted to keep up the firm’s legacy of innovation.

Needless to say, sticking with their dated document management system (DMS) was not part of that vision.

With his eyes on the future — and the rising generations of tech-savvy lawyers entering the workforce — he knew it was time to invest in a cloud-first solution. To find a platform that would help boost productivity, enhance collaboration, and give his team greater flexibility.

In NetDocuments, Coleman Greig found what they were looking for, a DMS that would help open new doors of opportunity and move the business forward.

The Council of Europe (CoE) consistently produces highly sensitive documents with detailed reports, recommendations, studies, and judgements—all of which were becoming unruly and nearly inaccessible to staff between nine repositories, various field offices, and local services. The CoE’s leadership knew that in order to maintain control of their files, a modern document management system (DMS) was the only answer.

After a thorough and extensive proof of concept, CoE chose NetDocuments as their partner for the future. After a phased implementation with Tikit, a part of Advanced, the CoE was able to successfully migrate 35 million+ documents into their new cloud DMS—even during COVID-19 lockdowns.

• NetDocuments eased the stress of document versions and gave control back to the CoE
• A unified platform across offices makes it easy to develop common working methods and best practices
• The CoE successfully restructured its data, switched data centres, and implemented NetDocuments at the height of the COVID-19 pandemic
