Browning Marean: 1942 - 2014

Browning Marean: 1942 – 2014

August 26, 2014

Browning Marean passed away this past Friday (August 22) at the age of 71 from complications after a several months battle with esophageal cancer. As described in several wonderful tributes that I read today, his death was not only a huge loss to the eDiscovery and legal technology community, but to any individuals that had the opportunity to know him and work with him. Here are links to those tributes, I encourage you to take some time out today and get to know him through the eyes of others like I did today.

Also, here is a link to a video of Browning as eDiscovery Board Member of Bryan University. His love of technology, his belief that eDiscovery is here to stay and his belief in the importance of strong project management skills is evident in his comments. Rest in Peace, Browning.

WHAT CLIENTS ARE SAYING ABOUT CLOUDNINE

Great value product.

“Offers the major features we were looking for, at a fraction of pricing of other competitors.”

I used CloudNine as part of fraud investigation for email searches.

“…The tag function made it easy to flag the search results. I was impressed with the ease of use for a first-time user. The speed and ease of loading data and being able to review it immediately is a tremendous advantage over other Cloud-based platforms.”

Excellent tool with outstanding support

“CloudNine Review is excellent, it takes the best of the (market leader) review solution and leaves out all of the fiddly bits that make that product excruciating to use. Their upload and processing is automatic, and their pricing structure is the best I’ve seen.”

Great software that is easy to log on, user-friendly, has a great layout, and is easy to navigate.

“…CloudNine is great at searching documents, including tagging, and exporting. Software tailored to our business needs and streamlined the task at hand.”

Discovery Production

This software is easy to use and allows us to upload and download documents as they become ready, saving us both time and money.
