Organizations around the world rely on a multitude of software solutions everyday to connect teams, increase productivity and reduce costs. But disconnected tech can have the opposite effect. The average legal team uses at least five different tools, and it’s common for companies to use more than 130 SaaS solutions! With all that bouncing between systems and duplicated effort, it’s no wonder process and collaboration feel hard and unproductive.

As a legal team, it’s critical to collaborate effectively with stakeholders while managing your team’s time and workflows efficiently. Cue the LawVu legal workspace, designed specifically for in-house legal teams and the way they work with the wider business. LawVu is a secure, centralized workspace that lets you manage all your legal work in one place and seamlessly connect with the systems and tools your business lives in – helping you to maximize your technology, delight stakeholders, and focus on the high-value work that underpins your organization’s success.

LawVu’s legal workspace provides unmatched efficiency, data and visibility. However, legal is not an island – which is why our integrations with a broad range of popular business tools are essential for modern legal teams who want to further optimize the way they work, centralize more data and make collaboration effortless. Extra efficiencies come from integrations with the likes of Outlook and Gmail, Slack, Teams, Salesforce and e-signature software, plus low-code workflow automation tools for greater customization and time savings. And integrations such as embedded document comparison tools, Microsoft Word, and SharePoint can speed up work and facilitate compliance with wider business processes, all without you having to leave your legal workspace.

In short: from intake, collaboration and automation to document and contract management, the LawVu legal workspace connects with the tools you and your business use so you can focus on the work you need to do.

The latest enhancements to five popular integrations

LawVu’s integrations are essential for our customers – and we are constantly building and enhancing capability and partnering with specialized technology providers to ensure that modern in-house legal teams and their businesses can work in the way they need to. Keep reading to learn how the latest enhancements to five popular integrations can help your legal team streamline workflows and drive incredible outcomes across your entire business.

Salesforce: Make legal requests a breeze for your sales team

Salesforce is the lifeblood of sales teams, and a vital system for many organizations. LawVu’s integration simplifies collaboration between legal and the business, saving everyone time and reducing double handling. It’s easy for your stakeholders to create legal requests directly from Salesforce, and they can keep track of key information and status updates in relation to matters and contracts too.

But convoluted intake forms can diminish this value, adding unnecessary friction and frustration. Our latest updates make legal requests a breeze. It’s now easy for you to define conditional logic in LawVu and apply it to your Salesforce integration – so that intake forms automatically populate sections, fields and choices based on the information someone enters.

It’s a win-win-win! Sales can focus on sales, legal gets everything they need upfront, and everyone benefits from speedy, hassle-free contract and matter turnarounds.

SharePoint and Drive: Sync contract documents with your main repository

Many organizations rely on Microsoft SharePoint or Google Drive as their primary repositories. By connecting LawVu to your business systems, you can streamline document editing, enhance collaboration, and automatically store copies of valuable files in these repositories to meet internal policies.

In addition to files, you’ll now have the option to sync each contract in LawVu with SharePoint or Drive, making it quick and easy for the wider business to view and engage with contracts and ensure compliance. This seamless synchronization means that files uploaded to matters and contracts in LawVu are mirrored in your business repository. Similarly, files and agreements added to the corresponding SharePoint and Drive folders are replicated in LawVu, complete with version history.

BlackBoiler: Get instant redlining within LawVu to speed up contract review

Many in-house lawyers spend more than three hours daily on low-risk contract drafting or review work, which is why we’ve partnered with BlackBoiler to enable their seamless integration. This AI-powered contract review tool automatically returns a marked up version of a contract after its creation in LawVu within minutes! BlackBoiler provides a quick and simple way to review low-complexity contracts such as NDAs, reducing errors and turnaround times and saving time and money.

BlackBoiler’s latest enhancements include a new playbook builder, making it easy to create and configure your own playbooks which automatically apply to contracts as they are added to LawVu. And their new Microsoft Word plugin means you can access tracked changes and access more context while you’re drafting agreements.

Outlook: Capture and track emails and attachments in your legal repository

Busy inboxes are inevitable for legal professionals, and a majority report spending more than two hours per day  searching through emails to determine contract and matter history or to find advice from outside counsel. LawVu’s Outlook plug-in helps you spend less time in your inbox and enables you to create one secure, real-time record of requests, attachments and work in progress across your legal team. You’ll gain greater visibility across requests, work in flight and historic conversations, and free up valuable time to focus on strategic work.

This popular integration continues to delight in 2024 with a suite of compelling new features. LawVu’s enhanced Outlook add-in streamlines authentication and improves workflows, with bulk email filing and cross-user email tracking to boost efficiency, reduce duplication and help your entire team effortlessly manage their email filing.
