Salt Lake City, UT – NetDocuments, the leading Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) document and email management (DMS) provider for law firms, announced today that Buchanan Ingersoll & Rooney PC (Buchanan), will replace its on-premises systems with NetDocuments' cloud-based service.

NetDocuments will replace both OpenText and iManage, due to a recent firm acquisition at Buchanan. "The need to consolidate the two existing DMS systems gave us an opportunity to step back and rethink our DMS initiatives around compliance, information governance, and accessibility. We saw NetDocuments as an opportunity for new innovation in the legal document and email management space," Phil Casale, CIO at Buchanan stated. "It wasn't just about eliminating the complexity that comes with an on-premises system or a desire to say we are in the cloud, we needed a technology solution that would provide a more contemporary interface and take our firm into the future, helping us meet the demands for enhanced security, compliance, and encryption, as well as the mobility and usability our staff and clients expect."
