Senior Product Manager

PSS Systems’ software enables companies to conclusively determine what information they need to retain in response to both laws and lawsuits — and therefore what information they don’t need to retain. When companies can’t determine what to retain, they are often forced to retain everything — an increasing cost and frustration factor in the executive suite, litigation group, and IT department alike today. PSS Systems pioneered the legal holds and retention management software category in late 2004 when it installed its first version of Atlas. After four years in production use in the world’s leading corporations [managing over one hundred thousand holds and over a million custodians and data sources in preservation and collection], Atlas is the “gold standard” in a $2 billion dollar market.
