Introducing the NextGen Processing Engine — a comprehensive infrastructure upgrade that delivers faster, more reliable document processing. Now available in Nextpoint.
Modern Data Challenges Call for Modern Software Solutions
Legal technology has evolved dramatically since Nextpoint pioneered cloud-based ediscovery. Today’s legal teams face unprecedented challenges:
- Exponentially growing data volumes across cases
- Increasingly complex ESI and modern file formats
- Rising expectations for software speed and reliability
Our Solution: The NextGen Processing Engine
The NextGen Processing Engine establishes a reliable infrastructure that handles large file volumes and expanded file types with improved speed, stability, and scalability — delivering the consistency and high performance you expect from modern software.
Built for longevity, this infrastructure empowers Nextpoint to expand capabilities and deliver features that adapt to the ever-changing legal landscape.
This upgraded PDF-based foundation replaces our legacy PNG imaging system, which required documents to be re-imaged every time an annotation or edit was made. By eliminating excessive “copies” that weighed down system speed and storage, we’ve created a more efficient, future-ready platform.
Now, experience document imaging with crisp rendering, expanded file type support to include modern formats like DWG, HEIC, and PDF Portfolios, and confidence in document quality and usability throughout the review process.
The Speed and Scalability that Defines Modern Software
With the NextGen Processing Engine powering your ediscovery and case building workflows, you’ll experience:
- Expanded file type support — Process modern formats including HEIC images, password-protected archives, specialized CAD and DWG files, and Microsoft Office files with tracked changes, all without conversion tools
- Faster import speeds — Meet urgent deadlines with reduced processing times that speed up case preparation
- Improved document imaging — Review with confidence using clearer, more readable document images optimized for accuracy
- Enhanced PDF exports — Maintain word-level searchability and annotations in exported documents for seamless use outside Nextpoint
- Strengthened system stability — Process large files and complex cases reliably, even during high-volume periods
