Evaluated against 19 other vendors in 8 categories, the report found that the, “core e-billing and matter management application modules in Passport are well-designed, meeting expected capabilities and features.” In addition, Datacert, which received more special honors than any other vendor evaluated in the report, was recognised in particular for its international leadership and several innovative capabilities that Hyperion Research recognised as differentiated in the industry, specifically:

– Noting the importance of EU and international capabilities as one of the market-s top priorities, Hyperion recognised Datacert as the only vendor evaluated that offers a comprehensive solution that fully supports the unique and complex e-billing requirements in Europe, as well as for having industry-leading internationalisation capabilities; Hyperion also noted Datacert-s long-established European presence and thought leadership in understanding the unique EU regulatory environment.

– Recognising that if lawyers don-t use the system, clients don-t get value from it, Datacert put great emphasis on the design and usability of Passport, enlisting the aid of external usability experts to do so. Based on extensive interviews with Passport clients, Hyperion Research-s report recognised Passport with two “Highly Innovative” designations — one for the user interface, described as having “extensive user personalisation and usability in all aspects of the system”; and one for its usability, particularly the “deep integration to Outlook [that] includes embedded e-billing and matter functionality, reduc[ing] barriers to adoption.”

In conducting interviews with Datacert clients, Hyperion learned how clients are successfully implementing Passport and found that, “clients noted particular satisfaction with Datacert-s implementation services and ability to handle complex project delivery” and that, “ongoing support services were considered to meet or exceed expectations.” The report also recognises Datacert-s, “sophisticated training program,” the Datacert Learning Institute, which provides comprehensive training and certification options to clients and partners.

Designed to support all aspects of legal operations and reporting, Passport provides the foundation for the consolidation and deployment of a broad range of legal applications and offers both a set of defined functional applications for e-billing and matter management, as well as a rich toolset that allows organisations to design, build, and deploy custom system capabilities to support their unique business requirements.
