Read our SmartAdvocate evaluation guide for package questions and operating requirements. Use the PI software comparison and printable demo checklist to bring the same acceptance tests to each vendor meeting.
Who should consider SmartAdvocate Connect 2026?
SmartAdvocate users, attorneys, administrators, and firm technology teams.
Decide which capabilities your firm owns but does not use reliably. A user conference is particularly useful when the problem is configuration, data quality, or adoption. Separate staff training needs from requests for new integrations or advanced automation.
Questions to bring
Use these questions to plan sessions and conversations around your firm's needs. These are our preparation suggestions, not promised sessions on the organizer's agenda.
- Which fields and stages must be consistent for reliable reporting?
- Where can automated tasks reduce missed handoffs without alert fatigue?
- How should permissions and review apply to AI-assisted work?
Plan the trip and the follow-through
List the recurring tasks and reports your team cannot reliably complete today. Bring examples without client-identifying information and identify an internal owner for follow-through.
Create a short training and configuration plan with an administrator responsible for each change. Test a controlled workflow before applying changes across active matters.
