Aderant will help you transform your law firm’s work allocation with viAllocate – no more Excel
Aderant acquired people management software leader viGlobal in 2022. Since then, the vi by Aderant team has steadily continued our tradition of constant innovation for law firm clients. (Our progress is well-documented on our vi by Aderant website – visit us there any time!)
In August, we launched viAllocate, our new solution that helps law firms transform their work and human resource allocation. Work allocation is incredibly important for law firms – it’s about finding the right balance, making sure people are not under- or over-worked, either of which can lead to attrition.
Historically, work allocation at law firms has been a somewhat unscripted process. As a time-honored tradition, many law firms have used an arbitrary “free market system” where if partners get a new client matter, they’ll just choose their favorite associate for the team. Or they might walk down the hall and ask around to see who’s available to take on more work. Let’s face it – neither of those methods are necessarily the most efficient way to distribute work.
Excel spreadsheets can’t accomplish what viAllocate can!
During a recent webinar poll conducted by vi by Aderant, we discovered 40% of attendees were using Excel spreadsheets to manage work allocation. Since Excel requires an extensive manual component, the opportunity for viAllocate to transform and facilitate these tasks proved to be tremendous.
