Franklin Data Releases Break-Thru Technology to Help Law Firms, Corporations, and Government Agencies to Capture Lotus Notes Rich Text Formatting (RTF) for Use in Electronic Data Discovery.

New Lotus Notes offering helps demonstrate Franklin Data's leading technologies by processing the full rich text format of Lotus Notes E-mails, a continuing complexity of its competitors.

Westlake Village CA July 28, 2004 -- Trenched within the Electronic Evidence world, clients of Franklin Data continue to call on their expert resources to provide the best E-Discovery Processing available today, Franklin Data being a top choice. The Electronic Evidence Discovery business is a business that continues to throw curveballs to traditional litigation support service bureaus in each litigating market, curveballs that can halt a discovery process dead in its tracks. While steps are taken by each company to keep ahead of the curve, certain technologies are typically left to the technologists.

Today, Franklin Data has demonstrated break-thru technology once again to help clients capture rich text formatting for Lotus Notes e-mail, whereas other firms just reside to the fact that they can only provide plain text formatting. While the plain text formatting provides the text-only body of the message, certain formatting is omitted such as bold characters, italics, and some message headers. In short what is provided isn't what resides on the media holding Lotus Notes data. Lotus Notes is a wild animal and requires Franklin to have select and dedicated resources to help capture and make it work. I'm extremely proud of the success weve had as an Electronic Data Discovery company and take a lot of pride in the challenges we continue to overcome, including Lotus Notes, says Matthew Blake, Managing Partner and Founder of Franklin Data.

During the litigation process, it's been proven to be burdensome, costly, and exhaustive to defend emails not captured as they exist in their native format, including and demonstrated by Lotus Notes. Clients today continue to seek help in this field but to no avail, until now. Coupled with finding a firm to process Electronic Evidence, clients are on the continued look-out for quality, speed, and economics as part of their discovery needs search. Franklin Data meets each of these criteria's for clients looking for the best Electronic Evidence Outcome by a company that utilizes Best-of-Breed Technologies and Methodologies. Franklin Data maintains their standard pricing model based on the raw-uncompressed original size of data to be processed for Lotus Notes. Clients typically save upwards of 70% by outsourcing to Franklin Data. Franklin Data accounts over 95% repeat customers across the United States in each major market. Geography has never been an issue for Franklin Data resources or project delivery.
