I noted in an earlier post that the free Web-based project management tool Onit was preparing to launch a paid, premium version aimed at enterprise-level users. This week at LegalTech it did just that, introducing Onit Premium, an enhanced version of the free product designed specifically for corporate legal…

Ever wonder why someone who is in the business of selling court opinions would want to support a project that is devoted to giving them away for free? I have the answer to that question from Ed Walters, CEO of Fastcase.

As I wrote here earlier today, beginning in January, Fastcase will…

In a post earlier this year, I wrote about Onit, the Web-based project management tool introduced as a beta at LegalTech in February. Designed for managing projects of any size, Onit includes a Legal Edition for legal matters and cases. “The beauty of Onit is its simplicity,” I wrote then, not to mention its…

In a post two weeks ago about Clio, the cloud-based law practice management application, I said the company had a major enhancement in the works. Well, here it is. Today, Clio and Google announced Clio’s integration with Google Apps, Google’s cloud-based suite of office tools for…

After I published my post this morning, Clio Turns Two, As Lawyers Ease Into the Cloud, a reader wrote to ask why I hadn’t complied with the FTC’s endorsement guidelines and disclosed that Clio is an advertiser. Lest anyone think I am being in any way deceptive, let me address this.

Meanwhile, the iPad version of…

Earlier this week, I posted an exclusive first look at a pre-release version of the new iPhone app from Fastcase. It provides no-cost access to a full library of cases and statutes.

Now, Laura Orr at Oregon Legal Research offers another perspective on the Casemaker vs.…

In a June 2008 post here, I previewed the beta version of Clio, a Web-based practice management tool. One year ago today, it came out of beta with the release of its full version, which I picked as one of 10 tech stars at LegalTech NYC.

To mark its anniversary today, Clio…

Earlier this month, I published here the letter I received from Steve Newsom, general manager of Lawriter, the company that produces Casemaker, responding to my review of Casemaker vs. Fastcase published in Law Technology News.
