Exterro, Inc. Launches First-Of-Its-Kind Mobile Platform For The Legal Industry

Exterro, the leading provider of legal hold and discovery management software for the legal industry, recently introduced FusionGo, the first-of-its-kind mobile software platform for the legal industry. Available on both BlackBerries and iPhones, FusionGo provides legal teams with many of the same mission-critical features currently available in Exterro Fusion Workflow management on their desktops – with the added capability and convenience of accessing and updating real-time information anytime, anywhere. Now, legal teams can implement repeatable, defensible processes for legal holds and e-discovery with quick and easy access to Fusion workflow management technology on their handheld devices.

"Attorneys are always on the go, and are in need of a way to track and manage complex and time-sensitive case information while away from the office," said Bobby Balachandran, CEO of Exterro, Inc. "With FusionGo, clients have real-time access to their accounts and to the information that's critical to successful e-discovery management."

In a survey conducted by Exterro, experts found that 76 percent of legal professionals do some, most or all of their work from home, on the road, or otherwise away from a single, office-based workstation. Traditional working environments are no longer the standard format for modern professionals balancing hectic work and family lives. Rising to the challenge of increasing mobility in the legal realm is Exterro's FusionGo, offering the legal industry a solution for a constantly changing environment.

With FusionGo, smartphone users will be able to:

• See all applicable legal holds on a single, easy-to-navigate screen.
• Receive real-time updates and access to matter and custodian information including reminders as deadlines approach and at-a-glance views of daily cross-matter to-do lists. Track and manage cross-matter issues from anywhere, anytime, in real time
• Approve actions, upload information and manage tasks, all in real time
• Smart menuing system, with fewer clicks for more efficient menu navigation

With a simple and effective user interface, FusionGo seamlessly integrates with Web-based versions of Fusion for maximum flexibility. FusionGo provides innovative and practical capabilities that complement the communications, connectivity and multimedia features used by millions of smartphone customers today. FusionGo mobile platform provides the same robust functionality as the Web-based version of Exterro Fusion while offering the added benefits of immediacy and portability.

Exterro's FusionGo mobile platform is available immediately. FusionGo is currently available for the BlackBerry and iPhone smartphones, and will be available for other smartphone models by Mar. 30, 2009. ¬

For current Fusion clients, the transition and implementation of FusionGo will be smoothly integrated and synchronized with current Web-based systems, and paired with core Fusion functionality. It will be offered as an add-on to new clients. To learn more and to see a demo of the platform, visit: www.exterro.com/mobile.
