The Digital WarRoom Family is pleased to announce Version 10.1, a significant update to our software from 9.1! As we considered our product roadmap, we turned to YOU – our users, and we proudly say that every decision, new feature and design change that was implemented was thanks to direct user feedback.
More and more courts and customers are requesting text searchable PDFs. Digital WarRoom now provides greater flexibility to meet that request. During export a PDF will be provided and, for all documents imaged in 10.1, it will be text searchable. For produced documents OCR must be generated after the production is endorsed to insure any redacted text is not provided on export.
When upgrading matters from 9.1 PRO, it is important that any document subject for redaction be re-imaged with the 10.1 imaging tools. Before applying redactions, add the document(s) to a draft, flag for reconversion (to remove the prior image) and run Prepare Production.
During our original launch to our cloud based customers we put together a brief overview and a more in detailed webinar. Additional updates have been made which will detail below but these may be helpful to your team as you make the update to 10.1!
