X1 Discovery is having a record-breaking year, with dozens of Fortune 500 companies and leading law firms adopting the X1 Enterprise Platform to transform how they approach eDiscovery collection, early case assessment, and information governance. In an era when overcollection and skyrocketing legal costs strain corporate budgets, these organizations are choosing X1 to gain immediate insight into their data, dramatically reduce costs, and ensure defensible, repeatable processes—all while maintaining complete control over their information. This surge in adoption reflects X1’s position as the industry’s trusted solution for modern, efficient, and targeted enterprise eDiscovery.
The X1 Enterprise Platform is an industry-leading eDiscovery and information governance solution that empowers organizations to search, identify, analyze, and act on their data in-place, wherever it resides. X1 uniquely addresses Microsoft 365—including robust Teams support—laptops, file servers, and other cloud and on-premises sources, giving legal and compliance teams unparalleled reach and control. Dozens of major enterprises and AM Law 100 firms have now standardized on X1, recognizing it as the most effective solution for managing M365 content—often outperforming even Purview Premium—while also covering on-premises data sources seamlessly. By enabling a highly targeted, efficient, index-in-place approach, X1 provides immediate, pre-collection visibility, streamlining search, analysis, remediation, and collection workflows like never before.
Here are the top three reasons why leading organizations are adopting X1 Enterprise in record numbers:
- Significant Return on Investment
Corporate legal departments that implement X1 consistently realize up to 90% in “hard” cost savings. X1’s powerful in-place search and pre-collection filtering enable teams to collect only what is needed, achieve true proportionality, and eliminate massive outsourced processing and project management fees. Many organizations are even scaling back or eliminating costly Purview Premium licenses altogether, all while mitigating risk with a defensible and repeatable collection process.
- Unmatched Speed and Scalability
X1 delivers speed and scalability that no other solution can match. It can search across thousands of laptops and multiple terabytes of M365 or file share data within minutes, quickly pinpointing responsive data for precise collection or remediation. All indexed data stays securely behind the corporate firewall or in a private cloud. Unlike legacy tools that overpromise and underdeliver, X1 is proven to work and scale as advertised, backed by real-world case studies and customer success stories.
- Multiple Use Cases Beyond eDiscovery
Beyond eDiscovery, corporate legal and compliance teams leverage X1 to locate and remediate sensitive personal information (PII), defensibly purge redundant or non-compliant data, support due diligence and data separation during M&A transactions, and handle GDPR Data Subject Access Requests (DSARs) and other data privacy obligations—making X1 a true multipurpose platform for enterprise information governance.
In today’s data-driven world, X1 Enterprise is more than a solution—it’s a strategic advantage. For organizations serious about controlling eDiscovery costs, reducing risk, and gaining immediate insight into their data, X1 is the clear choice.
