CT Summation Vendor Session

I was pretty disappointed in this session. I went in hoping to get some info and a demonstration of Discovery Cracker along with the other Summation products and they pretty much ignored that product. The information on iBlaze 2.9 wasn’t bad, but I was hoping to save myself a trip to their booth for a good look at Discovery Cracker. I’ll try and hit them up this afternoon or early tomorrow and see if they can actually show it to me there.

On the other hand, as with any conference, some of the best information is coming from other attendees, learning about how they work, what tools they use, etc. Thus far I’ve heard good things about Legal Bar, and DiscoveryE, which I’ll need to get some more information on.

It’s also interesting to talk to folks from firms that developed their Lit Support teams from paralegals who had tech knowledge as opposed to IT folks who had to learn the law. It really presents a different way of looking at things, and how work flows. I’ll be thinking more about that as I go forward, that’s for sure.

  • Linked – Skills, Skills, Skills

    I’ve said it before, but let me repeat it. Regarding technology, what you learned in college is probably pointless within 2-3 years. What you did at work 5-10 years ago is useless. Continuous learning and upskilling are not optional. Talking about skills-based hiring is a new trend, but it’s the trend that made sense even before it became popular. Your degrees and resume don’t matter nearly as much as what you can do right now and what you can learn going forward.

    This is the business world we live in now. There is no cushy job where you can do the same thing in the same place for 30 years. That’s ancient history, and our career plans and hiring practices must match the current reality.
