Presented by Chuck Davis, David Malkinson, Francesca Bartoli


Summary

iManage announced a number of end of life announcements- most notably for FileSite, DeskSite, the IDOL Indexer and the COMAPI which will end support in June 2023. This, in combination with Microsoft ceasing support for Basic Authentication for M365, means that firms still on legacy versions of the product now have to start planning the upgrade of both server and desktop to Work10.

Watch this on-demand webinar where Morae’s Chuck Davis, David Malkinson and Francesca Bortoli explored the different choices available to firms planning their upgrade journey, including the Desktop clients, RAVN Indexer, iManage Cloud, and what to do with the integrations that use the legacy API.

This on-demand webinar also showed how firms should reframe this project to stakeholders; this shouldn’t be seen as a disruptive technical upgrade, but as a positive business change that will ultimately enhance productivity, security and the firm’s competitive advantage.
