(The) Winter (eDiscovery Business Confidence Survey) is Coming: eDiscovery Trends

Winter is Coming!  And, by “winter”, I mean the Winter 2017 eDiscovery Business Confidence Survey created by Rob Robinson and conducted on his terrific Complex Discovery site.  It’s the second year of the quarterly survey and we covered all four rounds of the survey last year (those results are here, here, here and here).  Now, it’s time for the Winter 2017 Survey to start a new year!

As before, the eDiscovery Business Confidence Survey is a non-scientific survey designed to provide insight into the business confidence level of individuals working in the eDiscovery ecosystem. The term ‘business’ represents the economic factors that impact the creation, delivery, and consumption of eDiscovery products and services.

This year’s survey consists of nine multiple choice questions focused on factors related to the creation, delivery, and consumption of eDiscovery products and services and may be useful for eDiscovery-related business planning.  It’s a simple nine question survey that literally takes about a minute to complete.  Who hasn’t got a minute to provide useful information?  As always, individual answers are kept confidential, with the aggregate results to be published on the Complex Discovery blog upon completion of the response period, which goes through Tuesday, February 28.

The more respondents there are, the more useful the results will be!  What more do you need?  Click here to take the survey yourself.

Now that we have entered a second year for the survey, we can start to evaluate year over year results to differentiate those variations from quarterly fluctuations.  Knowledge is power!

So, what do you think?  Are you confident in the state of business within the eDiscovery industry?  Share your thoughts in the survey and, as always, please share any comments you might have with us or let us know if you’d like to know more about a particular topic.
