How to choose

How will it organize files by matter?

Look for matter workspaces if you want documents grouped around a case or client matter. Compare this with how your team currently names and stores files.

Check whether version history and an audit trail match your record-keeping needs. Version history helps track document changes; an audit trail records activity.

How will staff find and protect documents?

Full-text search can help staff locate documents by words inside them. OCR support can make text in scanned pages searchable.

Which platforms does it need to run on?

Choose a tool that supports the devices your team uses. The board lists web, iOS, Android, Windows, macOS, and API availability.

Confirm platform support for the specific product and plan before choosing, especially if staff need mobile access.

What should I check about cost and trying the software?

Compare the free-plan mark, paid starting price, and trial details. A free plan and a free trial are different: a trial is time-limited, while plan terms can vary.

If pricing is listed as available on request, contact the maker for a quote. Check whether the plan includes the features and platforms your firm needs.
