Aderant, a global industry leader in providing comprehensive business management software for law firms and other professional services organisations, is now offering Aderant Expert as a cloud service in the United Kingdom and Continental Europe.

The cloud-based option of Expert – Expert Sierra –has seen significant client growth in North America over the past two years and was immediately successful with its expansion to Australia in late 2019. Expert Sierra delivers access to the premier solution that powers the top global law firms, enabling lawyers and staff to work anywhere, any time while taking away the burden of managing on-premise hardware and software updates.

Configured with scalability and reduced infrastructure in mind, Expert Sierra users will benefit from:

• Robust functionality. Available to firms of all sizes, Expert Sierra provides mobile access to the comprehensive Expert financial, time and billing, and case management modules.
• Improved agility. Expert Sierra enables collaboration, automation and mobility, whilst allowing firm lawyers and staff to efficiently work through matters, parties, tasks, appointments and filings, anywhere, any time, on any device.
• Reduced infrastructure costs. Providing Expert as a service in the cloud means firms will no longer require heavy investment in hardware, servers and maintenance resources. Software system security, licensing, upgrades, updates, and more, are managed by our team so you can handle your daily tasks efficiently.
• Security. Expert Sierra is secured through Amazon Web Services (AWS), the gold-standard in cloud infrastructure. Through AWS, Aderant manages your Expert system from deployment, to upgrades, to security. Expert Sierra provides the most security and availability to your data, with flexible scalability and reliability exceeding industry high-performance standards.

“After two successful years of growth in North America and Australia, we are happy to offer Expert Sierra in the United Kingdom and Continental European markets,” said Josiah Chaves, Aderant’s Director of Expert Sierra. “Firms of all sizes will now be able to experience Expert as-a-service, without the administrative overhead of ensuring availability, security and infrastructure performance of this critical business system.”

“Given current circumstances, it becomes even more important for firms to consider anywhere, anytime access to critical systems when they are not in the office,” said Eric-Jan van Alten, Aderant’s Director of Sales for EMEA. “Expert Sierra’s cloud-based infrastructure provides lawyers and staff with those abilities – including file access, time entry and paperless billing.”
