In LTN's October issue, Sean Doherty dives into kCura Relativity, web-based e-discovery software that "uses web forms to customize the user interface and configure workflows that offer to fulfill specific document requirements." Relativity helps users index, search, review, analyze, and code documents -- and then "produce responsive document sets that withhold privileged documents."

His verdict? "Relativity was easy to use, configure, and reuse to review documents for multiple clients and matters," declares Doherty, a San Francisco-based attorney and the technology editor for Law.com.

A caveat? Its best feature (the aforementioned customization and config tools) is also its worst: "The multiplicity of tabs, pages, and options makes it hard to find things, but I would rather be feature-rich and challenged than feature-poor and complacent." Read the full review here.
