We got our eDiscovery prototype appliance today. The eClaris CPR is designed to support a balanced approach to eDiscovery processing (client and vendor working together on a dedicated platform). Each appliance will be able to process up to 250 gigabytes of data in less than two hours. The system will include evidence collection, processing, hosting and production features.

The eClaris Electronic Discovery appliance will attach directly to a client's servers, allowing for even more cost-effective eDiscovery in-house. Once the device is installed, the client chooses either a subscription or a "pay-per-click" model, depending on the client's eDiscovery needs. Law firms have the option of using a method that bills their clients directly for time spent on their particular eDiscovery. For corporations seeking to control costs and law firms conducting document-intense litigation, this is the future of eDiscovery.   eClaris provides background support and is ready to provide additional levels of engagement on an as needed basis.
