Exterro Again Positioned as a "Leader" in Gartner's 2014 Magic Quadrant for eDiscovery Software

The Newly Released Market Report Recognizes Exterro for Its "Ability to Execute" and "Completeness of Vision"


PORTLAND, OR--(Marketwired - Jun 23, 2014) - Exterro Inc., the preferred provider of software specifically designed for in-house legal and IT teams, today announced that it has been named a Leader in Gartner's 2014 Magic Quadrant for E-Discovery Software report.* This positioning follows a year of continued growth and adoption of the Exterro Fusion® suite by Global 2000 organizations. Exterro's comprehensive e-discovery software is recognized by clients for its ease of use and ability to automate and unify all phases of the e-discovery process with repeatable workflows, advanced data analytics, a flexible architecture and the industry's broadest integration capabilities.

According to the 2014 report, "E-discovery is a well-established practice in the legal and judicial worlds. In national and supranational organizations, legal and regulatory systems depend on digital information to function. They require software to assist them, due to the volume, variety, velocity and complexity of the information they have to deal with." The report further states that, "Corporations continue to move from relying on service providers for the identification, preservation, collection and processing of data to managing the discovery process themselves, in-house."

Exterro Fusion is the only software suite built on top of a general-purpose workflow engine and open architecture platform that delivers the industry's broadest set of integration capabilities. This foundation enables legal and IT teams to manage the e-discovery process across organizational structures and ensure existing technology investments, such as archiving, asset management, matter management, cloud-based storage and existing e-discovery applications are leveraged to their fullest capabilities. Organizations can deploy Exterro Fusion in the preferred model of choice -- hosted in the cloud, installed on premise or via a hybrid solution.

"We continue to receive tremendous feedback from clients and the market regarding Exterro Fusion's built-in workflow and advanced data management capabilities. The combination is enabling them to transform e-discovery into a standardized business process that reduces cost and risks," said Bobby Balachandran, president and CEO at Exterro. "I am very proud of our advancements and believe that our dedicated commitment to innovation and client success have enabled us to maintain leadership position in Gartner's 2014 Magic Quadrant for E-Discovery Software. We look forward to moving the industry forward in partnership with our Global 2000 clients as they strive to address current and future legal and regulatory challenges."
