SAN FRANCISCO – Dec. 2, 2009 – CT Summation, the premier provider of litigation workflow and eDiscovery solutions , today announced the general availability of iBlaze 3.0, the next generation of its flagship product that improves the speed and accuracy of electronic document management and production processes.  As the nation’s leading litigation workflow tool, iBlaze empowers attorneys, paralegals and all legal professionals to quickly, accurately and cost-effectively manage the ever-increasing volumes of electronically stored information from case assessment through production.

Christine Taylor, eDiscovery analyst at Taneja Group said, “CT Summation is one of the best-known and most firmly entrenched vendors in eDiscovery and litigation project management. But eDiscovery is a fast-moving field whose watch phrase is ‘innovate or die,’ and CT Summation hasn’t rested on its laurels. iBlaze 3.0 is a next-generation product that strengthens its case analysis and review capabilities and expands CT Summation’s reach into the production stage of eDiscovery. Production long took a second seat to the supposedly hotter review and analysis stages, but many a legal matter has foundered on production failure. With iBlaze, legal professionals can quickly and accurately get their eDiscovery analyzed, produced, and out the door.”

As the only all-inclusive litigation solution on the market, iBlaze equips users with the power to take control of all documents, electronic evidence, exhibits and transcripts from initial review through production.  The new features and functionalities of iBlaze 3.0 include: 

• Fast, Accurate Redactions: Quickly and easily search and review redacted documents and language; globally redact the same area on everything.
• Deposition and Transcript Analysis: Conduct rapid reviews with multiple-page views and condensed-transcript printing.
• Document Family Feature: Ensure collaboration with multiple-user access for production-set creation and completion.
• Near-Native Document View: Easily view documents without the need for desktop conversion or synchronization.  
• TIFF-on-the-Fly: Rapidly convert native files into TIFF (Tagged Image File Format) files to enhance review, redaction and production. 

“CT Summation’s iBlaze is the number-one litigation workflow product on the market and valued by law firms and legal departments of all shapes and sizes—and with the help of our customers we continue to make it better,” said Tom Rump, general manager, CT Summation.  “By making the eDiscovery process faster, more accurate and manageable with a single software solution, iBlaze allows users to optimally control every piece of data related to a case.”

CT Summation’s iBlaze was recently named as the “Best Case Management Software” in The Recorder’s “Best of Poll.”  The survey asked California State Bar certified attorneys about the business services and products they would most recommend to colleagues.
