[blindlaw] iManage

Hey Chris,

I think that the accessibility (or lack thereof) of iManage depends on the exact iManage product and version you are using. There’s FileSite, DeskSite, and I think some other sites as well. These are not created equal. My firm arranged for me to use a version of FileSite (which integrates with Outlook) and used a scripter to help label a few fields. We may use the scripter for a few other things as well, but the version of FileSite we are using is accessible enough that I can run searches, as well as save and retrieve documents. I used this for nearly eight years at a prior firm.

I also tried using DeskSite, and that was completely inaccessible, as far as I could tell. When I was using DeskSite, my only real option was to ask my assistant to perform tasks that required iManage. I found this to be difficult with respect to searches, because it’s just easier for me to scroll through a list of search results myself and see what might be relevant. But perhaps I could have gotten used to this method in time.

Do you know which iteration of iManage you will be using?

Best,

Angie

Hi All:

I'm starting at a firm in September that uses iManage, asI understand
most larger firms do. In talking to one friend, I learned it's
virtually inaccessible. So, to those of you litigating at firms that
use it, I'd love to hear your work-arounds.

Thanks,
chris
