"It’s extremely exciting to launch this initiative with Exterro and to provide better tools to our colleagues in the industry working with large volumes of complex smartphone data," said Matthew Rasmussen, ModeOne’s founder and Chief Executive Officer. "It’s validating to have an industry titan such as Exterro align with us to solve core problems for corporate, government, and law firm clients by assuring e-discovery grade protections to custodian data and providing a scalable infrastructure to meet today’s exponential growth in smartphone data demand.”
“Organizations need to manage their data, regardless of whether it resides on internal networks or computers, in the cloud or on mobile devices. Partnering with ModeOne ensures that our customers maintain control of their data and can derive greater insights, ensure compliance, and minimize risk through the ability to review computer, mobile and cloud data together in one platform,” said David Petty, Vice President, Partnerships & Channel, Exterro.
This game-changing solution from Exterro and ModeOne capitalizes on a cutting-edge cloud framework that removes the need for physical collection kits, delivers defensible e-discovery processes, eliminates high-volume requirements, and capitalizes on cloud resource scaling to alleviate long-time difficulties with smartphone data discovery. Together, the companies will give customers consistently faster access to the facts of a matter on a cost-predictable basis.
