Auto-docketing has been a game changer! It saves a tremendous amount of docketing labor to have Events created before going in to add staff/assign responsibility. We still put human eyes onto every new docketing action, but "reviewing and fine-tuning" rather than "start from scratch" is fantastic.

Pros

Our firm used to use an antiquated database that was not specific to IP law, and that barely met our needs. We knew converting around 10,000 files to a new system would be a big project, and considered carefully before making a selection. Nearly three years later we remain delighted with DocketTrak. The ability to create client-specific docketing templates helps keep us easily organized with much less room for human error, and it's simple to make changes as client guidelines change. We find DocketTrak to be easy for our new hires to learn, easy to customize, and easy for our attorneys to look ahead at their workloads. Many thumbs up!

Cons

Turned out not to be a dislike: Our prior docketing software included billing functions, so it was a bit of an adjustment shifting to non-integrated billing and docketing programs. But I only point this out because we thought it would be a rougher adjustment than it turned out to be, we found a standalone billing program we like too and both departments are happy. We needn't have hesitated to proceed with a standalone docketing system.

Reasons for choosing DocketTrak

We were already impressed with DocketTrak before we had a great walk-through meeting with Monty, and decided we liked the people behind this product as much as we liked the product itself. We've had great customer service, some new features implemented upon request, and have experienced almost no downtime. We're huge fans.

Highly, HIGHLY recommend this product. It is easy to learn and the docket sheets produced contained a wealth of information not found in other docketing program.

Pros

It is so easy to navigate and find things. I was in a firm that used CPI and PATTSY and I could never find the information needed if I had a question. I had to leave the work for someone else. I am training someone else on DocketTrak now and it's so easy for her to see how it works and how to find marks, either by mark or reference number or serial/registration numbers.

Cons

I wish I could SEE the design mark on the trademark view. However, it's not that critical to me.

Reasons for choosing DocketTrak

Ease of use, price, and layout of docket sheet.

Overall, this is a very good software for trademark docketing. We do not use the patent side, so can't comment on that part. For the software's ability and cost, we have had a good experience with it.

Pros

The product makes it very easy to import USPTO data directly into your docket. It is intuitive to use and the learning curve to teach others to use is simple.

Cons

The ability to use the form template is still lost on me. Customizable options are not available.

My overall experience with DocketTrak has been wonderful. It has helped catch things that have previously fallen through the cracks with a busy law firm. Additionally, Monty has been a huge help with getting me set up, and takes all the time it needs to help me whenever I email him.

Pros

I love the syncing of this software to the USPTO system for the most recent in time updates of your matters you are keeping track of. I also really like the informative daily emails, which is customizable and helps keep me on tasks and shows new dockets. It was very easy to integrate all of our Trademarks, Patents, and copyrights into the system and get it up and running. It is like having another employee keeping track of all of our docketing needs, for a great price!

Cons

I do not like that you have to run a pair connect to add a new patent, as this take a lot of time and adds things back that we have deleted, that havent updated at the USPTO level yet.

Implementing DocketTrak for our patent and trademark practice areas has been seamless, and the training has been easy due to the intuitiveness of the product.

Pros

The docketing and the client user feature. Uploading information is easy with the use of DocketTrak's upload templates.

Cons

So far, DocketTrak has met our needs and has been easy to use. May want some more customized reports in the future.

Reasons for choosing DocketTrak

Operation has been smooth with DocketTrak. I continue to be a customer after nearly a decade.

Pros

DocketTrak automatically imports activity in trademark applications, can automate followup schedule and deadlines, and allows easy tracking of important dates. Online platform allow access from any location.

Cons

There was a bit of a learning curve to program automation, set up matters the way you prefer, and get the platform working "right" for us. However, this is true of every docketing platform I've used, and the learning curve for DocketTrak is perhaps less than other platforms.

Reasons for choosing DocketTrak

Better functionality, automatic updates, and ease of use.

This is overall the best IP docketing software that I have used in my 18 years of experience.

Pros

The cost is incredibly less than every other IP docketing software out there. And unlike others, it caters to both the patent and trademark sides. Its integration with the USPTO is better than any other software I have used.

Cons

It would be nice to more easily print docket reports.

Wonderful. We have been using this program for 2 years and have not encountered any problems.

Pros

I like being able to customized the views and notifications. I like the ease of placing notes and comments for each docket entry.

Cons

Unfortunately, for the reminder view you cannot customized the amount of time for each period, you have to choose from the pre-selected options. Also, having to manually enter PCT patent applications filed through the USPTO.

For a small IP practice with patent, trademark, and other IP, there is likely no option. Integration with PAIR is critical, and few products other than DocketTrack have got that working right and consistently.

Pros

Seamless and reliable imports from USPTO.

Cons

Some docket dates are not part of the automatic rule set, and if not noticed, can lead to a missed date. I set up a default 30 day rule with monthly followup. This avoids missed dates, but can lead to false positive docket entries. The integration with Clio is rudimentary, and "one time only" data migration. Data needs to be fully cleaned before ingestion by Clio, or fixing afterwards is a pain. It would be nice if there was an incremental data transfer option to set up new cases in Clio from the automated entries in DocketTrack on an on-going basis, and tech support for that option. No automated TTAB and PTAB docketing. No automated foreign annuities docketing.
