Eric M. Elfman, CEO of Onit, to Lead Discussion on Cloud Computing at the In-House Counsel Summit
(firmenpresse) - HOUSTON, TX -- (Marketwire) -- 05/16/12 -- Onit, a leading provider of business productivity and process management Apps, today announced that the Texas Lawyer's In-House Counsel Summit has invited its CEO, Eric M. Elfman, to present on cloud computing. The summit, which will be held in Houston on May 17, helps corporate counsel explore best practices in multiple areas ranging from legal technology to intellectual property.
Elfman's session, titled "Cloud Computing and Legal Technology," kicks off the summit presentations at 8:30 a.m. CT on May 17. In it, Elfman will examine the basic principles of the cloud, its legal implications and its contractual considerations. The thorough discussion will include information on:
Cloud basics, including pricing, terms and types
Common concerns when operating from the cloud
Benefits of adopting cloud computing
A real-world example of cloud computing in action
Best practices in cloud contracting, including scope, ownership, termination, warranties and limitations of liability
How cloud-based apps improve a law department's efficiency and promote cost savings
"Due to the complexity of deploying and maintaining traditional, enterprise-level solutions, many corporate law departments are saddled with inadequate tools to manage workloads and workflows. Cloud computing offers an affordable solution that meets the unique demands of in-house counsel operations with painless deployments and simple maintenance. This session will work to acquaint legal professionals with what they need to know to take advantage of this asset," said Elfman.
Additional panelists include Ed Cavazos, a partner with Bracewell & Giuliani LLP, and Onit Customer Development Executive Paul Zengilowski.
