Case Study: Buddle Findlay achieves seamless cloud migration and anywhere access with iManage Work 10 in the Cloud

Buddle Findlay activates mobility strategy with seamless conversion to iManage Cloud

Buddle Findlay, a leading New Zealand law firm with 350 employees and a 125-year history, faced aging on‑premises data centers, rising data volumes and storage costs, and growing complexity in securing and managing documents. The firm needed anytime, anywhere access to protect business continuity, enable mobility for lawyers (even offline), and prepare for future technologies like AI, so it evaluated cloud platforms that would deliver the best five‑year ROI and an ongoing product roadmap.

Working with long‑time partner Morae Global, Buddle Findlay migrated to iManage Work 10 in the Cloud and rolled out iManage Mobility, with iManage Drive, Security Policy Manager and AI capabilities on the roadmap. The go‑live was seamless, delivering faster performance, frictionless document access, higher staff satisfaction and reduced operational risk, while freeing IT to focus on innovation and client‑facing improvements.
