If you’re considering moving off Everlaw, the trigger is usually one of two things: matter scale has pushed you toward the platform that BigLaw and the litigation defense bar runs on, or your matter shape has become small/repeated enough that a lighter platform fits better. Everlaw is the strongest mid-market ediscovery platform in 2026 with the most credible AI roadmap — but it’s not the right fit for the extremes.
Relativity
The dominant enterprise ediscovery platform, the de facto standard for BigLaw, the litigation defense bar, and the largest in-house teams. Relativity’s customization depth, integration ecosystem, and support footprint exceed Everlaw’s at the top of the market. Cost is materially higher and the operational overhead requires dedicated ediscovery staff.
Migrate from Everlaw to Relativity when: your matter scale has grown to terabytes-per-matter routinely, you’re co-counsel on matters where Relativity is the standard, your firm has the dedicated ediscovery ops capacity, and your service-provider ecosystem already uses Relativity.
Don’t migrate when: the complaint is feature gaps that Everlaw’s roadmap is closing. Relativity’s edge at the top of the market doesn’t extend down into mid-matter motions.
Logikcull
The light-end platform built around speed and self-service. For small matters, internal investigations, and legal hold management at smaller scale, Logikcull is genuinely faster to spin up and cheaper to run than Everlaw. The trade-off is customization and AI depth.
Migrate from Everlaw to Logikcull when: your matter mix is dominated by small matters and internal investigations, your team is non-specialist (not dedicated ediscovery counsel), and the speed-to-review matters more than processing capability for big matters.
Don’t migrate when: you have any meaningful big-matter work. Logikcull is not built for that and you’d be back on Everlaw within a year.
Stay on Everlaw when
Your matter mix is mid-sized — bigger than Logikcull comfortably handles, smaller than Relativity is necessary for
Your team values the unified UX and modern AI features over Relativity’s customization depth
The Storybuilder and predictive coding workflows are doing real work in your review motion
Your service-provider ecosystem supports Everlaw
For these teams, Everlaw is the right tool and the migration urge is usually noise.
Verdict
Relativity is the right migration for ~20% — top-of-market firms whose matter scale has crossed the threshold
Logikcull is right for ~15% — small-matter-dominant teams where speed and cost matter most
Staying on Everlaw is the right answer for ~65% — most mid-market litigation teams haven’t outgrown it
The single mistake to avoid: switching ediscovery platforms because of one bad matter. Tool fit is decided by your matter mix, not by your worst quarter.
