Many leading firms are transitioning to intelligent search for the advantages it provides: searching multiple systems simultaneously, discovering insights that keyword searches can’t offer, and allowing faster and more efficient searches.

Firms deal with massive amounts of information every day, and the increasing number of locations for data storage means they need to rethink how to perform searches. Law firms that move to intelligent search have a competitive advantage over those that don’t.
