New Enhancements Improve Efficiency, Cost Savings and Quality

ELMSFORD, N.Y., Dec. 14, 2011 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Planet Data, a global
innovator in the creation and development of defensible legal
technologies, services and solutions, today announced the latest
version of their proprietary early cost assessment eDiscovery platform,
Exego3. The new tools and enhancements to existing tools allow users to
save on cost and improve efficiency through asynchronous searching,
advanced metadata search techniques and by validating results through
random sampling.

"Today, there is a lack of clarity about how to successfully navigate
the eDiscovery process and the pricing assimilated with eDiscovery
technology," said Howard Reissner, Esq., CEO of Planet Data. "The
market is demanding cost efficiency, better quality search results and
a quicker turnaround from eDiscovery vendors. Through our enhancements
revealed in Exego3 we have delivered on all fronts. Users will save
time, money and improve the quality of searches. Planet Data is
constantly evolving our technology to stay ahead of the industry and
market needs."

Key updates to Exego3 include:

Asynchronous Searching

Users can work uninterrupted significantly increasing efficiency -
while one or more searches runs in parallel. The focus remains on the
iterative process of improving search terms and understanding the data.

All query results are stored, allowing instant access at any time
without the need to rerun searches. Users can return to a search at a
later time and quickly recall the results of previously run queries. In
addition, the end user can instantly jump between the outcomes of
different queries to compare results.

Enhanced Meta Data Search Tools

Understanding the metadata in a set of documents is central to
understanding the contents of the document collection, however,
searching on metadata fields tends to be complex and frequently results
in many false positives. This new feature allows easy construction of
queries across large numbers of metadata fields, or to exclude unwanted
fields, to reduce false positives or hone in on very specific metadata
fields.

Validation Through Random Sampling

This critical feature not only allows the user to sample against
non-responsive documents, but to also apply sampling techniques to
quantify the effectiveness of search terms very early in the case.
Sampling will ensure that no stone is left unturned and that there are
no unknown variations of concepts due to lack of knowledge or an
inadequate search strategy.

Combining Exego concept based search technology with this new feature
gives the ediscovery team complete assurance that the review is
thorough and efficient.
