Catalyst, the company that designs, hosts and services the fastest and most scalable document repositories for e-discovery and regulatory compliance, today announced Insight Legal Hold and Collection, a set of integrated, enhanced capabilities for data collection, preservation and culling developed in partnership with TotalDiscovery.

With Insight Legal Hold and Collection, Insight Enterprise becomes a full EDRM platform, spanning the entire discovery process from legal holds and collections through to processing, review, analysis and production. Through deep integration with TotalDiscovery's advanced cloud-based legal hold product, corporations and law firms will now be able to seamlessly and securely transfer data from preservation holds directly into Catalyst's award-winning e-discovery search and review platform Catalyst Insight.

"When litigation is possible, legal and IT staff have the tough job of issuing legal holds and collecting potentially relevant information," said John Tredennick, Catalyst's founder and CEO. "TotalDiscovery makes it easy. Not only can we directly manage the collection and preservation, but we can speed the e-discovery process with expert workflows, increase efficiency by automating manual tasks, and reduce costs with flat-fee licenses and predictable expense."

As internal data volumes have exploded, companies have struggled to manage legal holds and collections. Over the past decade, TotalDiscovery developed a highly automated, SaaS-based legal hold technology that is now used by Fortune 500 and Global 2000 companies and their law firms. In addition to reducing risks and costs associated with the legal hold process, TotalDiscovery ensures a defensible process that has stood up in federal and state courts and in international arbitration and legal proceedings. 

"Our technology is rock-solid and mature. It's been used to protect organizations and government entities alike against legal sanctions, fines, and the high costs of manual processes," said TotalDiscovery CEO Alon Israely. "TotalDiscovery is disrupting the manual way of managing the process. By partnering with Catalyst, we'll be delivering the most legally defensible, automated, and cost-effective platform for both IT and legal." 

Insight Legal Hold and Collection connects to many different enterprise systems in order to create process efficiency and to drive forensically sound document and data collections, including Office 365, SAP and others.
