Quickly, easily and efficiently cull unwanted documents from your data. Run, refine and qualify simple and complex search terms. Hone in on what really needs to be processed for review without breaking a sweat or the bank. Simple. Effective. And Radically Efficient. Document review can be the most expensive component of e-Discovery. But with Kiersted Direct, you can improve efficiency, and better manage costs. Kiersted Direct puts you in direct control of the culling process, so that you can efficiently search and cull data before initiating a document review, saving time and money. Culling Made Easy Identify and remove unwanted documents at once with easy-to-use, industry-proven and accepted culling techniques that are immediately available after data pre-processing. With a 30-minute tutorial, users will be able to safely, confidently and accurately peruse and remove unwanted documents. Advanced culling is available for the following fields: • • • • • • Sender Domain Sender Address Sender Name File Type Location Snippets Location Culling Kiersted Direct’s Location Culling tool allows you to quickly identify and exclude data en masse – by location. Browse folder trees taken from network drives, user hard drives, and even email containers. When a nested folder structure is found containing non-relevant material, a single click quickly excludes the entire tree. Location Culling makes it easy to narrow your focus to pertinent data only. Domain/Sender Address/Sender Name Culling Avoid costly review by finding and removing large groups of non-responsive documents. Identify spam, alerts, and general mass advertising emails, among other things. Review documents using the integrated viewer prior to exclusion, to ensure that no potentially responsive documents are inadvertently culled. Search Create and maintain your own search lists. Reduce communication lags and opportunities for error. And run hundreds — even thousands — of searches, in record time. You can quickly make smart decisions about what material to include, and what to exclude from further processing, reducing your document review to a manageable size. Using Direct’s real-time, innovative search analysis form, users can immediately review results. Important search hit information such as documents returned, related nonhits (such as email attachments), unique documents and total size are displayed. Is a problematic search term skewing your results? No worries, turn it off and immediately see how removal of terms will impact the number of total documents returned. Snippets Unique to Kiersted Direct, Snippet analysis empowers users to quickly ignore repetitive strings of text that are responsive to your search terms but aren’t the results you are looking for. All too often, search terms yield documents that may contain the words you are interested in but have nothing to do with what you wanted to find. We’ve all experienced search terms that returned large numbers of hits due to standard verbiage included in document footers, email disclaimers and signature lines. Direct collects, aggregates and presents search term Snippets, allowing users to ignore unwanted results and greatly increasing search accuracy. Integrated Document Viewer Available throughout Direct, the Integrated Document Viewer with search hit highlighting enables users to review documents prior to important culling and search modifications.
