Case Study: Houthoff Buruma achieves faster, more secure document collaboration and metadata protection with WorkShare Professional

Houthoff Buruma - Customer Case Study

Houthoff Buruma is a leading independent Dutch full‑service law firm with about 700 staff and offices across the Netherlands, Belgium, the UK and Luxembourg. The firm needed a faster, more reliable way for teams in multiple offices to compare and share major client documents — checking Word edits was slow and there was a real risk of accidentally sending sensitive hidden metadata — causing potential delays and financial consequences.

They implemented Workshare Professional (upgraded from DeltaView) and integrated it with their document management system. Workshare sped up and clarified version comparison, automatically strips sensitive metadata, offers on‑demand PDF conversion and ensures documents are saved correctly, resulting in faster deal turnaround, improved accuracy, stronger compliance and reduced information risk.
