25th May 20208th May 2020 by AccessData

New product delivers the speed of a desktop experience with the flexibility of go-anywhere cloud technologyAccessData Group, a leading provider of integrated digital forensics and e-discovery software, today announced the launch of AD QBlaze™, a fast and flexible legal review tool for law firms, service providers, corporations, law enforcement and government organizations that want legal review at a lower cost, with minimal IT management or burden to infrastructure.

“The legal market has been seeking alternatives to complex and expensive document review tools that have too many unused bells and whistles, which just add unnecessary complexity for the end users and for the organization’s IT personnel,” said Abdeslam Afras, executive vice president of global markets at AccessData. “We developed QBlaze to give reviewers a simple and intuitive interface with basic review functionality, while providing litigation support teams a way to get evidence processed and ready for review in minutes.”

QBlaze is able to provide its blazing-fast speed through a flexible desktop client, delivered in a software-as-a-service (SaaS) model, fully managed by AccessData and built with the power of AWS.

The tool features automatic scaling of the database and engine through Elastic Cloud Processing, a wizard-driven upload/export feature, predefined processing options, and an intuitive review interface that can be mastered in minutes. This lightens the load on admins and reviewers so they can speed through review time on even the most complex case.

“The lightweight SaaS approach with QBlaze is unique to the market,” said Afras. “With its super clean, intuitive interface, even the most nontechnical user can get started with little training, saving significant time and maximizing the output of the entire team.”

Advanced users may also want to customize and automate their workflow, which is possible with QBlaze, leveraging the platform’s API. Any third-party tool, such as case management software, can easily be integrated in a DIY model or with the expert support available from the AccessData Services team.
