Zapproved

Zapproved is a company that provides ediscovery software solutions specifically designed for corporate legal teams. Their flagship product, ZDiscovery, is a powerful and flexible platform that enables legal teams to streamline the entire ediscovery process, from initiating legal holds and preserving data to collecting, processing, and reviewing data for litigation or regulatory compliance purposes.

ZDiscovery offers a range of features that help corporate legal teams save time, improve compliance, and reduce risk. The legal hold management module allows teams to initiate legal holds, track custodian compliance, and generate customizable reports. The platform integrates with various data sources, including Microsoft 365, Google Vault, and Slack, enabling automatic preservation and lifting of custodian data holds.

Furthermore, ZDiscovery empowers legal teams to conduct targeted data collections from Microsoft Exchange and other sources, process thousands of file types, and perform data reduction techniques such as deNISTing and deduplication. The integrated review module enables teams to bring routine matters in-house, redact privileged information, apply Bates numbering, and export data in multiple formats.

ZDiscovery was designed to be easy to use, requiring minimal training, and aims to reduce the reliance on IT support and the need for outside counsel, ultimately cutting costs. The platform is backed by enterprise-class security and unrivaled customer support, with a commitment to staying ahead of evolving challenges in the ediscovery landscape.

In January 2023, Zapproved was acquired by Exterro, a leading provider of legal governance, risk, and compliance (GRC) software. The acquisition aimed to enable organizations to better manage the interconnections of ediscovery, privacy, legal operations, digital investigations, cybersecurity response, and information governance.
