New Features
General File Sharing
Introduces a secure, centralized capability within our Vendor Portal that enables clients and vendors to exchange key operational documents within the system. With this new functionality, both clients and vendors can upload, review, and maintain visibility into shared documents tied to their business relationship.
This enhancement addresses a long-standing gap in legal operations where foundational agreements and documents are often managed through disconnected email threads or external portals. These fragmented processes create inefficiencies, increase compliance risks, and reduce transparency.
Ultimately, this capability strengthens operational alignment, enhances compliance, and builds trust between corporate legal departments and their outside counsel while reducing administrative overhead and improving user experience.
