MetaLINCS, a Seagate Technology (NYSE:STX) company, today announced that LEX On Demand, a provider of E-Discovery Solutions to legal and corporate communities nationally and around the world, has licensed the MetaLINCS Enterprise E-Discovery Suite. MetaLINCS software, which is part of the Seagate Services Group, will power the LEX iQube E-Discovery Service to provide large law firm and corporate customers with a fully integrated solution for all the core electonic data discovery functions and processes needed to meet the rigorous and demanding enterprise-class requirements associated with the widest range of litigation and compliance-related investigations.

Recent changes to the U.S. Federal Rules of Civil Procedure have resulted in a massive surge in interest for E-Discovery solutions that have the potential to save huge amounts of money when collecting, processing, analyzing and organizing the extensive amounts of electronic data produced and subpoenaed every day. LEX On Demand, and the new LEX iQube E-Discovery Service powered by MetaLINCS, help customers address these needs by offering a wide range of services, including collections, forensics, electronic data discovery, paper discovery, data analysis, online hosting and review, evidence preparation and consulting services.

"LEX On Demand prides itself on delivering leading-edge technology combined with forward-thinking client focus and responsive customer support. In looking at ways to enhance our services and build our business in the crowded E-Discovery market, we evaluated many companies and their technology to determine the best fit for both our requirements and those of our customers," said David Tomashefski, president at LEX On Demand. "Seagate Services and MetaLINCS software offers us the best of both worlds - best-in-class technology to meet our customers' E-Discovery needs combined with a world-class partner program to help us enhance and expand our business into new markets. We are very excited about adding MetaLINCS as an advanced analytics and review platform to LEX's array of service offerings."

The LEX iQube E-Discovery Service powered by MetaLINCS will offer law firms and corporations an intelligent service that will enable users to rapidly ingest and process native files, pre-review analysis, intelligently cull and deduplicate data, plan and strategize the review process, and identify, prioritize and produce particular custodians and document collections. The service expands and extends the MetaLINCS platform by offering postproduction options such as imaging and endorsement and preprocessing capabilities such as OCR and "deep" Lotus Notes database extraction.

"Organizations have increasingly complex and costly projects in responding to litigation or regulatory issues," said Ramon Nunez, head of the MetaLINCS business unit at Seagate Services. "The materiality and time-critical nature of these projects compel organizations to work with companies they can trust, who will truly understand their business and E-Discovery requirements. Using MetaLINCS software, coupled with LEX On Demand, organizations can be confident they have the most complete and powerful E-Discovery solution with deep industry expertise available on the market today."

The MetaLINCS Enterprise E-Discovery Suite is a packaged software application that supports and accelerates the entire electronic data discovery process. The application has quickly set the industry standard for powerful analysis, ease-of-use and overall workflow flexibility for enabling corporations, law firms and government agencies to deploy "best-practice" E-Discovery processes that best meet the unique requirements in their organizations. MetaLINCS software provides corporations, law firms and government agencies with an enterprise-class application that reduces the escalating cost and risk associated with E-Discovery. This is done with the industries only integrated application and analysis capabilities that make review and early case assessment faster and more accurate.
