I don’t like blogging about software that much, especially products I don’t use day in day out. In a small field like legal I don’t like to criticise companies online and so I tend to stick to the saying our mothers taught us “if you have nothing nice to say, say nothing at all”. However I got a demo of Bundledocs the other week and thought it worth a mention, mainly because it ticks a box I’ve blogged about previously. Simplicity. (see here and here and here)
The product demo took about 10 minutes, simply because the product does it’s one job easily. It’s designed to create document bundles or binders and the interface is designed to do just that. Upload your documents, adjust the order, group them how you want, redact any text you don’t want in the final bundle and that’s it. Then as it’s cloud based just fire off a link to who needs a copy (which also allows collaboration on the creation if you want).
There’s also DMS (document management system) integration to give law firms direct links to where the documents are, I saw the iManage integration but I notice on the site there is netdocuments too.
Even the pricing was simple, no complicated per user or enterprise size model.
This isn’t a recommendation, take a look yourself over at bundledocs.com where you can try it out for 30 days. I know of others in the legal industry that think Nikec’s product in this space looks really good too. This post was more about the simplicity of this software. Something I really admire in products.
My only worry is the comment on there website “Bundledocs is continually adding new features and enhancements”. A small plea, don’t overcomplicate it please.
