New ActiveNav Cloud Feature: Insights

Unstructured data is a critical challenge in every law firm. IT knows the risk is there, but they don’t know exactly what’s out there or where it’s stored. With millions of files scattered across multiple unstructured and unconnected systems, making confident decisions on data becomes virtually impossible. 

ActiveNav Cloud's new Insights feature closes that gap. 

What is ActiveNav Cloud Insights? 

Insights is a new capability within ActiveNav Cloud that gives IT teams a dashboard view of the hundreds of millions of documents within their unstructured data landscape and the ability to quickly segment, analyze, and make decisions on them.  

Insights queries your files in seconds—summarizing and organizing dark data across repositories by key attributes including: 

• Location 

• Age 

• Duplication 

• Sensitivity 

• Business value 
  
  

At a glance, you can see where your data lives, how old it is, how risky it is, and whether it’s still earning its keep. 

Seeing all your unstructured data organized by attribute in the dashboard is only the start. Insights Builder lets you interact with this information to better understand and prioritize data for review and decision at scale.

With Insights Builder, you can efficiently: 

• View and slice millions of documents into manageable subsets in seconds 

• Prioritize what data subsets should be reviewed first 

• Create workflows that enable confident decision making 
   

Key capabilities 

With ActiveNav Cloud Insights, you can: 

• See the whole picture: Get a consolidated view of your unstructured data across all repositories

• Query millions of documents in seconds: Use a simple interface to quickly report, visualize, and interact with terabytes of data stored in the most common enterprise repositories 

• Design prioritized review workflows: Use the Insights Builder to define review sets and move through them in manageable stages  

• Support defensible decisions: Generate robust documentation that lets you clearly and repeatably explain—and defend—what was done, when, and why 
   

 In short: it moves unstructured data discovery from slow and siloed projects on a repository-by-repository basis to a fast and comprehensive approach for managing unstructured data anywhere it lives.
