Case Study: Stewart McKelvey modernizes document management and improves collaboration with NetDocuments

Stewart McKelvey accelerates DMS rollout with NetDocuments and 100+ user input

Stewart McKelvey, a leading Canadian law firm, faced significant challenges with its obsolete OpenText eDocs document management system. The system lacked matter centricity, mobility, and robust security, which restricted collaboration and hindered the firm's "Paperlite" initiative. To maximize client value and provide greater efficiency, the firm sought a modern solution and turned to vendor NetDocuments.

NetDocuments addressed these challenges with its cloud-based platform, specifically highlighting its ndFlexStore feature for geo-aware storage flexibility and its HSM for customer-managed encryption keys. This solution satisfied the firm's governance and data residency requirements, making the business case for the cloud. The implementation, supported by NetDocuments' services and a strong change management plan, resulted in a smooth and successful go-live, enabling improved collaboration and security for the firm.
