ZyLAB has launched a new version 6.0 of the ZyIMAGE Information Access Platform (IAP). The ZyIMAGE IAP provides a foundation for the archiving and long-term management of information, from digitised paper documents, to electronic files, to email and attachments, to multimedia.
The company said that the platform’s core technology enables users to find, access, and organise data through a standard browser. The new version offers organisations an array of new features, options and performance enhancements designed to support information management, legal and compliance requirements.
According to ZyLAB, the new version enables faster searching on even larger/broader document collections. It not only helps users keep up with the exponential growth of stored data but also allows them to quickly retrieve the information needed in order to respond to legal hold notices, client requests and regulators.
In addition to enabling users to select specific documents or key fields to incorporate into the search index, the v6 enhancements enable the batch import of multiple files to the index.
The company added that the new version provides integration of ZyIMAGE with Outlook that enables organisations to optimise their investments in other business tools plus leverage the familiarity its users already have with a particular interface. With this enhancement, users can more readily search their archives without having to exit or open another interface.
The company said that the new version also adds a host of new features specifically for eDiscovery, including: expanded reporting capabilities; support for import/export of metadata files in EDRM XML format; conversion of eDocs to TIFF format; expanded document de-duplication options; easy collection of electronic files from PCs and other remote data sources; expanded library of pre-configured search tools for automatic data extraction; and automated creation of ZyIMAGE Key Fields.
Johannes Scholtes, president of ZyLAB North America, said: “Already recognised by industry publications and top-tier independent analyst firms as one of the strongest Information Access solutions on the market, these new features further differentiate ZyIMAGE from the competition. Every one of the features introduced is in direct response to customer requests.
“Not only are we expanding our leadership role within organisations that need to easily manage and locate information but we are also building a solid reputation as a leader in the eDiscovery space.”
