iEnvision Technology and Ascertus Limited Form Strategic Alliance
30 July 2010
iEnvision Technology, Inc., a leading technology services and consulting company, and Ascertus Limited, a premier supplier of software business tools to corporate in-house legal departments, law firms, and other professional services organizations, today announced a strategic alliance to more effectively service their law firm and corporate legal clients who have offices both in Europe and in the US.
The alliance will allow Ascertus and iEnvision to provide local technical support, training, implementation, and consultation services and save their mutual clients from incurring ever increasing travel expenses, especially for projects where a presence is required on both sides of the Atlantic. Roy Russell, Managing Director & Owner, Ascertus Limited, comments: “We have been looking to work with a North American based Autonomy iManage reseller for some time and were recommended to speak to iEnvision who were recently awarded Autonomy iManage US partner of the year for 2009. The similarities between our two businesses are striking in terms of the in-depth knowledge and experience of Worksite we both have, the typical clients we serve, the other products we offer including KwikTag and DocMinder, and most importantly, our culture and desire to exceed our client’s satisfaction levels. We look forward to growing our mutual businesses and offering our clients a unique and cost effective service”.
iEnvision Technology’s founder and CEO Matt Hobbs, echoed Mr. Russell’s enthusiasm for this alliance: “We are excited to begin this alliance with Ascertus Ltd., and look forward to sharing our best practices and expertise in delivering excellence with Autonomy iManage solutions.”
iEnvision, which has specialized in Autonomy iManage and its matter-centric product suite for over 12 years, has focused on delivering Information Lifecycle Management (ILM) solutions to its clients. Specifically, iEnvision organizes companies’ electronic documents, email, paper, and all other forms of unstructured data that are reaping havoc on organizations.
"A common vision for control and governance of email and documents that will satisfy legal requirements and address cost and feasibility concerns from the IT department is slowly emerging. The publication of the Electronic Discovery Reference Model (EDRM) has helped a great deal by codifying the common components that the legal department needs and that IT must provide." 
"The persistence of temporary backup files for four days presents obvious security and privacy issues. If such files contain sensitive, confidential, or otherwise privileged information, their existence can expose a law firm to malpractice risk, court sanctions, or other serious problems / penalties
"The UK Legal market is certainly not a leader in Social Networking but one or two firms are using some of the tools such as Linkedin, Blogs, Twitter and a couple are experimenting with Facebook as a consumer facing marketing tool. "
