Lighthouse Spectra Reviews
Pros
They are very responsive and patient. I appreciate that they'll set up video calls to help explain and work through issues.
We have had a great experience with Lighthouse Spectra. The customer service provided by Lighthouse is fantastic.
Cons
Lighthouse Spectra is Critical to our Litigation Operations.
I have difficulty deduplicating emails, even after applying Brainspace.
"Best way to use Relativity on a small project"
Overall: We use it mainly for fast-burn ECA reviews and small projects that only require a quick email review.
Pros: Fast and easy setup, DIY for everything but with a fantastic, responsive support team available to handle anything out of our comfort zone. Ability to do nearly any admin task ourselves is key.
Cons: No complaints or issues, and any time we have any issues or questions, the Spectra support team always has a quick and good answer.
"Lighthouse Spectra is Critical to our Litigation Operations"
Overall: The support team has made my overall experience with Lighthouse Spectra better than I ever could have imagined. They are fast to respond, and help me solve problems as they arise even with a tight deadline. The support team are extremely kind and are one of the primary reasons my firm will stick with Lighthouse Spectra.
Pros: Lighthouse Spectra makes our litigation and eDiscovery work so much easier. The interface is slick and easy to process documents into Relativity. It allows my small firm to go toe-to-toe against much larger firms.
Cons: It is an extremely complex application. There is a steep learning curve and it can be challenging to learn as your going.
"New to Lighthouse Spectra and Relativity"
Overall: Overall Lighthouse Spectra is very good. Customer service has been excellent and I like the ability to easily upload productions myself
Pros: I like the keyword search capabilities, the save search feature, including editing and copying saved searches, and ease to batch export documents to PDF
Cons: Unlike concordance, where the metadata and extracted text could be seen along with the list of documents that responded to a search or tag, one must click on and enter each document to see the metadata and text. Also, search history is not easily available
"Spectra Review"
Pros: The product requires zero infrastructure investment from our firm. The ability to get up and running quickly on any matter is beneficial. The customer support team is top-notch and shows that they truly want to help the client.
Cons: I would like a billing module built in to the software so that it doesn't require interaction with the Lighthouse team each month. The import/export feature needs to be fine tuned to handle larger exports more efficiently.
"Brett Roman (Goulston Review)"
Overall: Working with the forensics team has been incredibly helpful to learn more about the collection from particular data sources. [SENSITIVE CONTENT] was tremendously helpful with that request and guiding us along the way. [SENSITIVE CONTENT] has been tremendously helpful in providing production support. That's a few names to acknowledge along the list of employees who we interact with daily that have been incredibly helpful in educating, problem solving, troubleshooting and in general great working relationships with employees from Lighthouse Spectra.
Pros: Easy to integrate and use independently, but also have a great team of PM's on the full service side that are great to work with and make our lives easier to handle multiple requests at the same time.
Cons: I currently do not have any issues with the software that are noteworthy at this time.
