Vancouver, BC, July 11 -- MasterFile Software today announced the release of MasterFile R2. Designed and priced specifically for small legal practices or workgroups, and smaller litigation or investigations with 100 to 50,000+ documents, MasterFile combines for the first time advanced case analysis, fact management, litigation support and document management in one system -- eliminating three separate products and reducing end-user training, support and complexity. MasterFile R2 costs $395 per user or $995 for five and is the only alternative to CaseMap®, Summation®, Concordance® and Worldox®. With its new CaseMap Importer, users can migrate to MasterFile instantly.
"MasterFile's exclusive Argument Drafting System lets the litigator set out and substantiate argument directly in MasterFile, referencing evidence right down to the specific extract or fact relied upon on, point by point, using our doc-link technology," said Zainul Ebrahim, Vice President of Business Development at MasterFile. "It's faster than working on paper or typing -- because MasterFile's unique evidence views automatically keep documents categorized for ready reference by date, author, issue, document type, etc. so you can pinpoint and link to any document, extract or fact in just two or three mouse clicks."
MasterFile's fresh, new approach looks and feels just like using e-mail. Users can be up and running in an hour. Introductory pricing is just US$395 for one user and US$995 for five, slashing litigation support and document management software costs by 75% over integrating competitive products.
Litigators, legal professionals and investigators are demanding technology that allows them to work efficiently and cost-effectively with electronic and paper documents in PDF and native format -- which run into many thousands from just a few small active cases. MasterFile's database technology -- used by the U.S Navy -- scales to 1,000,000 page cases and is the foundation for MasterFile's unique repository. Its repository holds all case evidence, work-product, research, facts, argument and PDFs in one file, eliminating hundreds of folders and thousands of files scattered across servers, laptops, etc. -- all of which require cumbersome end user procedures, or expensive third party document management and litigation support software, to manage properly
MasterFile provides litigators and investigators enhanced security through unmatched, robust, on the fly, document, database and communication encryption. Mobile support with full bi-directional synchronization is built-in, so mobile/remote users, branch offices, co-counsel or clients can work on-line or off-line on all the facts, evidence or work-product of a case without any limitations or restrictions. "It was essential to provide enterprise grade, best of class mobile functionality to the small practitioner as part of MasterFile itself without costly Citrix, VPN or other add-ons," said Ebrahim. "Users don't need to synchronize cases one by one, system by system - instead, one click synchronizes everything in all cases at the same time."
Some of MasterFile's other legal industry firsts include:
- Live, "by Issue" views -- Browse evidentiary or work product, documents, extracts and facts all categorized by issue without printed reports.
- TimeMap® integration -- Adds MasterFile's chronology events to TimeMap visual timelines. TimeMap events are linked back not only to the substantiating evidence, but the actual argument, in MasterFile.
- Optional OCR/PDF Evidence Cruncher -- integrated bulk OCR and PDF processing, document production, in hard copy or electronic form, with burned-in redactions and Bates page stamping.
Comprehensive product information, video presentations, and 30 day evaluation copies of MasterFile are available from www.masterfile.biz.
