Latest version of Opus 2 Cases delivers task management
capability, ethical walls integration, and performance
accelerators; Opus 2 Hearings adds intuitive case dashboard
LONDON, July 16,
2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Today, leading legal
software and services provider Opus 2 announced its summer release,
featuring key enhancements that bolster the utility, security, and
speed of Opus 2 Cases and streamline the experience of parties
using Opus 2 Hearings.
"This is an exciting time at Opus 2 as our
product and development teams are continually adding meaningful
enhancements, other departments are growing and innovating, and
we're delivering critical solutions to the most successful legal
teams across the globe," said Greg
Blackman, Opus 2 CEO.
The release underscores Opus 2's commitment to purpose-driven
innovation—with benefits that further simplify collaboration, lock
down information, and reduce work effort for legal professionals
engaged in litigation, arbitration, and other disputes. News of the
release closely follows the announcement that Opus 2 Cases received
the prestigious SIIA CODiE award for Best Legal Solution.
"This is an exciting time at Opus 2 as our product and
development teams are continually adding meaningful enhancements,
other departments are growing and innovating, and we're delivering
critical solutions to the most successful legal teams across the
globe," said Greg Blackman, Opus 2
CEO. "As a fast-growing company, it's important to stay grounded in
what's truly important—delivering client value with solutions that
actually make them more efficient and effective."
Key improvements build on this momentum, as the company
introduces the newest version of its best-in-class, cloud-based
legal case management and analysis software and multi-award-winning
software and services for hearings. Here are the highlights:
Stay organised by managing case-related work tasks
Built for anyone on a legal team who is contributing to a case
or investigation—partners, associates, paralegals, litigation
support professionals, and so on—a new task management capability
keeps everyone's work organised and the project on track. Users can
create tasks for themselves or team members, monitor action items,
evaluate progress in a dashboard, and more. Because task management
is integrated into Opus 2 Cases, tasks can be created while working
on case documents and linked to key information—centralising and
simplifying all related work product and responsibilities in one
place.
Lock down confidential information and ensure conflicts
compliance
While Opus 2 Cases already makes use of a robust, granular
permission infrastructure, security options available to clients
are constantly being evaluated and implemented where they make
sense. The summer release includes such an offering—seamless
integration with Intapp Walls, a leading provider of legal
confidentiality solutions. This "ethical walls" integration ensures
that law firms can manage and control access across cases, so
lawyers cannot gain access to cases when they're conflicted
out.
Simplify access to trial resources, live transcripts, and other
hearing resources
When multiple parties are working to resolve a dispute that's
being conducted using Opus 2 Hearings—1,120 different international
hearings relied on the solution last year—quick access to
information is key to streamlining the user experience. In this
release, a new case dashboard provides an easy-to-use, secure
online hub where involved parties can access what is relevant to
them. The real-time transcript, EPE (electronic presentation of
evidence) with notes and highlights, live video conference, and
other trial documents and resources are available for the
proceedings in just a few clicks. Parties also can use the
personalised dashboard to securely transfer files and connect with
the Opus 2 Hearings team.
Increase user efficiency with solution performance
accelerators
As with security, Opus 2 continuously looks for ways to improve
the performance of its technologies. The summer release includes
multiple enhancements that boost behind-the-scenes processing, such
as dramatically speeding up the time it takes to convert large
volumes of documents into digital content through OCR.
