ForTheRecord releases new version of TheRecord Manager suite

Phoenix, AZ, October 19, 2011 — ForTheRecord (FTR), a global leader in digital recording and content management solutions for judicial and public safety venues, today released a new suite of products as part of  TheRecord Manager family, namely the Access Edition^TM, Guardian Edition^TM and Warehouse Edition^TM.

TheRecord Manager, suitable for courts of all sizes, facilitates a multitude of tasks such as dual archiving, replication, on-demand and automated reformatting of recordings to alternate formats, sealing and encryption. Plus, now, with the newly included Access Edition, TheRecord Manager delivers an array of reformatting capabilities, offering clients broader access to content as well as automatic, scheduled format conversions.

Alternatively, the Guardian Edition enables clients to seal and or encrypt their recorded content, thereby restricting access to authorized personnel only.  Lastly, the Warehouse Edition product leverages the latest in software advancements to provide an enhanced user experience with near-instant access to all FTR content, including across a virtual private or wide area network.

Additionally, TheRecord Manager suite helps US Federal Courts automate the conversion of individual hearing recordings to single-channel MP3 files for posting into the CM-ECF/PACER system, saving valuable time and improving process efficiencies.

“The new additions to TheRecord Manager product suite are a result of our dedicated and focused effort to provide new and existing FTR clients with a robust content management solution that meets their specific needs,” said Daniel Bennett, Executive Vice President of FTR.  “It is a platform on which we will continue to build and deliver expanding capabilities to benefit our clients in the years to come.”

ForTheRecord (FTR) digital recording solutions implemented in 352 courtrooms across Slovenia

Phoenix, AZ, June 20, 2011 — ForTheRecord (FTR), a global leader in digital recording and content management solutions for judicial and public safety venues, today announced that all 352 court rooms in Slovenia have been outfitted with the FTR Gold suite of products. Project “Audio Recording in Courts” is part of E-justice projects in Slovenia, and is co-financed by the European Social Fund.

FTR Reporter and FTR Mixer were the key products from the FTR Gold family that were leased by the Ministry of Justice through FTR partner and audio integrator, AVC Group based in Slovenia.  In addition, the courts also leased copies of TheRecord Manager and FTR Monitor software solutions to facilitate superior management of their digital recordings.

Jani Medic, from AVC, who led the team that designed and project-managed the complex installation said, “The FTR suite of products met the requirements of what we were looking for almost perfectly.  We needed to record up to eight independent channels, all of which had to be fully backed up.  In addition, the recordings were required to be shared amongst judges, lawyers and transcription services, while providing security, usage tracking and archiving. The FTR solution had all of these components and was able to be customized.”

According to Daniel Bennett, Executive Vice President of FTR, “The courts in Slovenia were looking for major productivity gains along with enhanced services for the judiciary and legal practitioners.  The FTR system was tested against stringent requirements and proved to be able to deliver the type of results that the Ministry was looking for.”  Further, he added, “Slovenia now has one of the world’s most efficient court recording work flow systems and is well placed to meet future demands for open and transparent administration of justice.”

ForTheRecord launches new FTR-as-a-Service Program for Law Enforcement

Phoenix, AZ, Apr 29, 2011 — ForTheRecord (FTR), a global leader in digital recording and content management solutions for judicial and public safety venues, today launched the FTR as a Service (FTRaaS) Program – the-first pay-as-you-go monthly software service model for the law enforcement digital recording market.

FTR has introduced this alternative monthly pricing program in response to the current economic climate and resulting budgetary constraints faced by the law enforcement agencies across the country.  The FTRaaS Program enables clients to subscribe to FTR software solutions and treat them as an ongoing operating expense, instead of an upfront capital investment, thereby providing greater flexibility in how they utilize available funds.  Further, since the program automatically includes 24×7 telephone support and free future software upgrades, law enforcement agencies can be assured of having the most comprehensive solution package for their interview rooms.

Joel Wax, Sales Director at Electronic Business Systems and an FTR Partner, said “The FTRaaS Program has been launched at a time when agencies are facing significant budgetary challenges.  We believe the monthly pricing option can alleviate these concerns and are ready to market this program aggressively.”

“ForTheRecord is widely known for its product and technology leadership in this industry,” said Daniel Bennett, Executive Vice President of FTR.  “Through the FTRaaS Program, we are innovating to help law enforcement clients overcome budgetary challenges and acquire solutions that will increase productivity and process efficiencies.”

The FTRaaS Program includes the FTR Interrogator product suite – a two-channel, digital audio-video recording and management solution for law enforcement agencies.
