There are over 300 organizations (many with multiple users) now using X1 Social Discovery. The list includes several dozen law enforcement agencies, about 80 law firms (including 20 of the AMLAW 100) and over 100 eDiscovery and computer forensics consulting firms. We are aware of our software being successfully used in many criminal and civil cases but do not have an official list or any written opinions, although we can provide you more specific information off line. We do have a some very favorable recent peer review in the New York State Bar Journal: MADE FOR EACH OTHER SOCIAL MEDIA AND LITIGATION; New York State Bar Journal; 85-FEB N.Y. St. B.J. 10, February, 2013. We are unaware of our software being unsuccessfully used in any cases, and we have a detailed whitepaper on evidentiary authentication that would serve as a foundation for a legal brief should any challenge arise. Another key point is that are cases where mere screen shots have been disallowed, but other cases where screen shots have been admitted into evidence. With X1 Social Discovery representing best practices over any other technical process for collection and preservation of social media, and far and away over screen shots, we believe that it is unlikely that the software will even be challenged, let alone successfully.
