Linetime in the News as published in highly acclaimed 'Legal Technology Insider' October 2004
Linetime has become the latest UK legal systems supplier to nail its colours to the mast of Microsoft's .NET technology. The company moved over to a SQL Server platform some years ago and, more recently, shifted its development work into a VB.NET environment. Now, this month, the company has launched MyView.NET, which it describes as a user access portal.
"The objective," says Linetime director Philip Snee, "is to give practice managers and department heads first thing in the morning access to information on all those things that keep them awake at night." MyView.NET does this by delivering a selectable and customisable series of key performance indicators directly to the desktop. Snee adds that because the Linetime Liberate system is an integrated case and practice management system that uses a common database, the KPIs can relate to anything from matter handling to financial reports. "Because this is a real-time feed (users can opt to have data refreshed as frequently as every minute) we are giving firms the tools to proactively run their firms, so managers no longer have to wait until month end to have a problem brought to their attention."
In other Linetime news... Mason Baggott & Garton in North Lincolnshire is now up and running Liberate practice and case management software (including a STARS interface for volume conveyancing) across four offices.
And, after its recent merger with AIM Evolution users Cohens, Hewitts in the North-East has standardised on Liberate across the firm. Practice manager John Elmes said the firm voted 5-0 in favour of Linetime, with better management reporting cited as a crunch factor.
The Insider web site's KM section also carries a new case study on Clarke Willmott's use of Linetime debt recovery software.
