Challenge

To enhance its ability to serve its clients, Howard Kennedy is always seeking new ways to improve knowledge management within the firm. While the firm is using iManage Work for document and email management, they required a more effective way to unlock the value of the knowledge contained inside that system.

Upon researching available solutions, Howard Kennedy could find only two that met its functional requirements. Based on the firm’s need for global support and desire to take advantage of new innovations easily and rapidly, Howard Kennedy chose iManage Insight.

Benefit

The firm particularly appreciates the way Insight takes advantage of lesser used features in iManage Work and turns them into valuable knowledge management features. Related documents in iManage Work are elegantly surfaced in iManage Insight — for example, when retrieving the final version of a document, the iManage Insight Knowledge Graph will show a cluster of related documents, such as the draft version or a similar document from another matter.

The tight integration between the iManage products was a big selling point. We are currently using iManage Work as our document management system and Insight adds a layer of intelligence and information that leverages Work.
