Case Study: Progressive Legal achieves 10% productivity gains and secure cloud-based document management with NetDocuments

Progressive Legal unlocks significant improvement in productivity and case/task completion by adopting cloud-based DMS, NetDocuments

Progressive Legal, an Australian law firm focused on fast, client‑centric services, outgrew its mix of Microsoft SharePoint and local storage and needed a secure, cloud‑native document and email solution for remote lawyers and paralegals. The firm selected NetDocuments (Document Management and ndMAIL) to provide a legal‑specific, searchable central repository, stronger version control, and secure on‑the‑go access.

NetDocuments was implemented with ndMAIL, ndCompare, Microsoft Office and Clio integration, mobile apps and Echo backup, giving Progressive Legal one‑click email filing, powerful cross‑cabinet search and safe versioning. The change delivered measurable results — at least a 10% improvement in productivity and case/task completion, flawless handling of more than 400,000 documents and emails across 5,000+ matters, and no lost unsaved documents — enabling the firm’s rapid growth and future plans to explore NetDocuments’ ndMAX AI capabilities.
