After I compared e-discovery self-collection tools in August, readers asked why I didn't include software delivered over the network or the internet.

AccessData, BIA, Guidance Software, and PinPoint Labs responded, describing how their network-enabled products provide real-time management tools to monitor and report on multiple collections — which are not available when you simply deliver a hard drive. With network software, reports during collection can be viewed and downloaded in Microsoft's Excel or .csv format.
