LexEDO is an electronic document management system (DMS) specifically designed to generate legal websites. LexEDO seamlessly integrates all of the functionalities required to manage large sets of documents and to disseminate them on the web: acquisition, retrieval and association of metadata, document conversion, indexing and search, website generation. Its identification and association filters can automate most of the manual tasks commonly associated with the handling of legal information. For this reason, LexEDO can take care of tens of thousands of legislative, judicial and doctrinal documents faster than any generic DMS. In addition, because content management flows exclusively from web interfaces, LexEDO fosters collaboration within the working environment.
