This week Clearwell Systems, Inc. announced version 5.5 of its Clearwell E-Discovery Platform, noting the new version can process data at the speed of 1 terabyte per day and scales to 100 million documents on a single appliance. The company says additional appliances can be easily linked together into a Clearwell Cluster and centrally managed via a single, unified interface.

This announcement comes on the heels of last week’s announcement of the product’s expanded support for Guidance Logical Evidence Files (LEF) and Forensic Image Files (E01). In a recent Enterprise Strategy Group survey, 73 percent of organizations stated that they planned to bring all or a portion of the electronic discovery process in house.  

“Several enterprises use Guidance solutions for data collection and the next logical investment is in a product that can process and analyze this in conjunction with other data gathered,” says Brian Babineau, senior analyst at Enterprise Strategy Group. “By being able to quickly and accurately process data in Guidance EnCase images without manual extraction, Clearwell stands out as a vendor that is not only streamlining the electronic discovery process—they are making it much easier for customers to better leverage their investments in Guidance solutions.”
