Specialist Legal Application Hosting Provider, C24, showcases the latest in business intelligence software to Legal Firms.

C24, an Applications Hosting Provider, showcased their Business Intelligence analytics platform, BI24, to legal firms at the Alternative Legal IT Conference 2014 earlier this month.

Held annually at the Belfry in Sutton Coldfield, leading technology suppliers to the UK Legal sector were present to meet with law firms and demonstrate how the sector could benefit from next generation technology solutions.

C24’s Business Intelligence analytics platform was on display, with C24’s technical specialists offering live demonstrations to clients throughout the day. Demos included showing how legal firms were using their internal data to understand how they could achieve savings across Work In Progress cases, who their top fee earners were and general fee trends and operational statistics to help make better business decisions, amongst many other topics. BI24 is a business analytics platform that centralises data and information and provides search engine functionality across the entire organisation, and is particularly helpful to legal customers who require holistic visibility of client and internal operations.

C24 has worked with numerous legal clients to deliver innovative business intelligence and hosting solutions. A recent win at Wright Hassall, a leading UK law firm, uncovered a number of challenges common to the legal sector, such as increasing demand from clients for more granular visibility of case activities and the need to drive further efficiencies across the organisation.

Martyn Wells, IT Director at Wright Hassall LLP, commented, “Expedient and insightful analytics are now essential in an industry where data hungry clients demand precise and granular views of activities conducted on their behalf. It is becoming increasingly clear that the days of monolithic data warehouse are over, and we sought a much more contemporary and agile solution; one that our users would understand and use intuitively.”

David Ricketts Head Of Sales and Marketing at C24, commented “C24’s on-going focus on the legal sector means that we are continually developing a significant portfolio of legal and professional services clients, and events like the Alternative Legal IT Conference and the Thomson Reuters Vantage Show enable us to connect directly with our legal clients and showcase the next generation technology in the law industry. The response to the business intelligence demonstrations using live data that we delivered at the show was fantastic and we are already speaking to a number of large law firms about how they too can benefit from increased visibility and business insight across their organisation”.
