eLitigateZE vs LiveLitigation

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.
