eLitigateZE vs MyDepo

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.

MyDepo is a web application for organizing deposition proceedings and their associated records. It covers deposition calendars, transcripts, exhibits, video, and other documents. Users can schedule, review, and change current or future proceedings online. A dashboard links the user’s calendar, jobs, cases, job details, and case jobs. Calendar views can be filtered by case, deponent, or job number and shown by week or month. Completed transcripts and exhibits can be viewed or downloaded in major formats. Colleagues in the same firm can receive shared access to cases, jobs, calendars, and invoices. Optional email notifications can flag scheduling changes and transcript uploads. Invoice searches support case, client matter number, or job number, with totals by case or client matter. The vendor says desktop and mobile devices can be used for scheduling, calendar management, and transcript downloads. Remote depositions, in-person support, exhibit management, and transcript coordination are listed. The service is free, but an account must be requested from the vendor.
