eLitigateZE vs Filevine

eLitigateZE is a cloud platform for remote and hybrid depositions, integrated with Zoom as an embedded Zoom App. Case teams can upload, search, preview, stamp, annotate, present, and reuse exhibits across linked depositions. During proceedings, Testimony Tools provide testimony streaming, playback, bookmarks, issues, and notes; the plan says these tools require an Esquire digital reporter. Afterward, searchable ASR testimony can synchronize with audio and video when video is ordered and a videographer is present. Users can download a formatted PDF rough transcript in speaker-designated or Q&A format and create MP4 testimony clips synchronized with written testimony. A deposition supports up to 500 participants. Current Chrome, Safari, and Edge browsers are supported, but Firefox is not. Mobile access uses Zoom on Android and iOS, Safari on iOS/iPad, or Chrome on Android. Media traffic uses AES-256 end-to-end encryption, web traffic uses TLS 1.2, and case files are encrypted on AWS. Audio and video files require screen sharing instead of direct in-app presentation. Pricing is available on request.

Filevine provides tools for complex legal work, including matter and document management, client communication, intake, depositions, drafting, billing and business analytics. Matter Management tracks tasks, contacts, deadlines and calendars. Document Management organizes files, supports advanced search and enables secure sharing. Intake tools capture, qualify and route leads, including through AI-powered features; client intake forms and a client portal are also listed. Deposition tools cover scheduling, live transcription, AI summaries and a searchable library. LOIS AI Drafting generates, edits and reviews documents using matter context, with human-verified output. The Matters package includes time tracking, invoice management and online payments. Native integrations span billing and timekeeping, email and calendars, data visualization, law management and communication. Filevine describes encryption at rest and in transit, governance controls, and identity and access management, and says it is hosted on AWS. Packages are tailored to the organization, with pricing on request. LOIS Explore is free but does not connect to Filevine Case Management.
