Flex Discovery, a leading provider of managed e-discovery and attorney review services today announced the availability of its new Managed Hosting Service. The innovative offering provides law firms and corporations all the benefits of cloud computing for managing e-discovery without the security challenges of sharing the organization’s environment in a public cloud.

Utilizing dedicated computing equipment residing in a state-of-the-art data center, this service provides clients with a Private Cloud to manage e-discovery. Clients can license industry leading e-discovery software from Flex Discovery or can transfer applications currently held in-house to the Private Cloud environment, or both. This enables clients to transfer the IT infrastructure acquisition and maintenance responsibilities to Flex Discovery…

Flex Discovery’s Managed Hosting Service benefits law firms and corporations interested in bringing e-discovery in-house, but wanting to avoid the purchase, installation and on-going management of on-premise hardware and software. The service is offered on a subscription basis with predefined service levels and no upfront costs. The Managed Hosting Service can also be augmented with Flex Discovery’s Managed ESI and Managed Review services for a comprehensive discovery management solution.

"There are many organizations that would like to gain more control of their e-discovery projects by bringing them in-house, but after further analysis, they often discover that the on-premise infrastructure investment required, just doesn’t make sense," said Bill Rioux, president of Flex Discovery. "Our Managed Hosting Service gives clients a highly secure, scalable and available platform to manage their discovery projects utilizing our software or theirs. Plus, the service can be supplemented with our other e-discovery and attorney review services, on-demand, to support spikes in litigation volume."
