ProLaw

ProLaw

Vorteile:

The ease and ability to pull documents and calendars into one program.

Nachteile:

It's a little bit confusing and rather hard to learn.

Great vision for a converged legal platform, but clearly under-resourced

Kommentare: We need a unified platform for all data entry and consumption that understands the legal business. ProLaw does that well. It allows us to maintain a high standard of data integrity, provide a large degree of automation, and develop solutions on top of a central "hub" that everyone understands. The vision is great, the implementation is not so great. The people are great, the company is not so great.
If you have good IT support, It's great. If not, well...

Vorteile:

Centralized data management is very powerful. No other solution provides CMS, DMS, Document Assembly, Calendaring, Routing, Cost Management, Accounting, Billing/Collections, and Groupware Integration all in one platform. ProLaw allows us to have all front office and back office work in one system. Reducing the need for duplication of effort, and reducing the possible errors caused by that effort. ProLaw is that it gives us the choice to remain on-premises (or in private cloud) meaning we maintain 100% control over our clients data. Are not held hostage by all the problems inherent with software-as-a-service solutions. Importantly, ProLaw leverages a modern and accessible technology stack. That is very important for customization and integration. I can do what I need, When I need it, and I am not stuck relying on a proprietary support structure to get results.

They share an enthusiasm for the vision and work hard to deliver the best product possible. They always go out of their way to help achieve customer goals.

Nachteile:

ProLaw is clearly under-resourced, Implementation is buggy and upgrades are a nightmare. While individual Customer service is fantastic, there is a lack of modern support such as self service installers, 64-bit applications, and proper quality assurance. ProLaw can be slow, clunky, and just feels out of date. Controls have no real business validation, As one attorney said, "It looks like something we worked on in collage", referring to the events tree and the clunky custom tabs. There is a real problem with policy over practice at ProLaw. Any deviation from Standard Operating Procedure is a nightmare. this causes almost every interaction to begin on the wrong foot, and long complicated interactions to be a nightmare for all parties involved. There is clearly problem with leadership which causes a strict adherence to an ineffective set of policies. Off-shore outsourcing of Professional Services.

Prolaw onsite review

Kommentare: it took a long time to get everything running properly and our reports created to our satisfaction, but the lack of a cloud solution during the pandemic had us looking elsewhere

Vorteile:

customizability of reports and ability to look at database directly

Nachteile:

data for allocations gets overwritten/deleted prolaw protal was completely different from prolaw desktop onsite software

Stability over feature rich!

Vorteile:

What features they do implement work great!

Nachteile:

Seem to be behind when it comes to new and exciting features compared to others.

Old school but simple

Vorteile:

I like that Prolaw is straightforward and easy to use. It makes organization of a litigation file easy and things are easy to find quickly.

Nachteile:

It is very old school looking- looks like it was made in 2004. It is buggy at times and gets hung up on certain routine tasks.
