I’ve been struggling over the last couple of weeks to come up with a subject to post about. Is this what people call writers block? It’s mainly down to being focussed on a particular project at work which has lead me to think about little else in the Legal IT field.

We’ve been gearing up to rolling out Autonomy’s iManage WorkSite 8.5 product together with the EMM (email management module). It’s been building up throughout the year, building VM environments, rolling out IDOL and Email Filing Servers etc. But it’s these last few weeks when the end users have started to get the software.

We started with a small field test and followed with a couple of pilots in London and Madrid, then this weekend was the big one. Six offices in one go, across four countries!

We’ve had some challenges with it, but on the whole I think the fee earners will like the product. If all goes well I’ll post up some coal face views of the software in the coming weeks!

On another note, this week I got short-listed for the Computer Weekly blog awards 2010! So if you’d like to vote for me (Jason Plant) you can do so over at the Computer Weekly site (or just take a look at the other shortlisted blogs).
