"ABSOLUTELY AWFUL! DON'T GO NEAR IT!"

April 16, 2024
1.0
It is impossible to put into words how really bad this program is. No way to save a document directly to the program. Have to save to desktop and then drag to Lex. Unbelievably awful in so many ways.
Pros:
There is nothing good about this program
Cons:
It is so bad that I cannot tell identify what I like least. Just absolutely, completely terrible

"Simple, Easy, and Affordable"

August 16, 2023
5.0
The platform is easy to use, affordable, and doesn't have too much complexity, which is what our firm was looking for.
Pros:
We have an older generation of attorneys in our firm and LexWorkplace has been simple and easy to use for all of our team members.
Cons:
I don't like that there isn't much customization for sorting by alphabetical order or date. This can be frustrating when searching through folders with a lot of documents.

"Best replacement for Worldox out thereQ"

September 20, 2023
5.0
From the moment I reached out until just moments ago when I was asked how everything was going, it's been wonderful. Everyone is invested in making LexWorkplace the best DMS out there.
Pros:
Ease of use and functionality. I also love that the developers want client input and actually implement requested changes, new features, etc.
Cons:
The big miss for our office is lack of custom fields - in our case a custom date field but it's under review as a new feature.

"Version control alone makes it worth it"

April 12, 2022
4.0
Pros:
Version control and having everything accessible online (as opposed to a server in the office) are the best parts of the software
Cons:
The inability to set preferences (e.g., what columns to show and to organize folders in files alphabetically automatically) is incomprehensible and constant source of frustration

We also play to make sort orders and column widths persistent in a future update, stay tuned! We hope that LexWorkplace continues keep your practice running smoothly.

"Easy to use and reliable"

February 18, 2022
4.0
We have had a very positive experience with LexWorkplace. It gives us peace of mind that our files are electronically stored in a safe, stable environment that can be accessed from anywhere and at anytime. The relative low cost makes up for the lack of bells and whistles that we would probably never use in any event.
Pros:
LexWorkplace is to access, simple to use and simple to organize. It allows thousands of documents to be stored in an organized manner with complete flexibility for organizing clients and matters. The "tag" feature and other file labels are customizable to allow for information about the status of a matter to be known at a glance. Perhaps the best feature of LexWorkplace is that is is a very stable platform with virtually no downtime. The developers are not constantly tweaking the interface so that there is no need to constantly adjust your interaction with the platform.
Cons:
There is only a limited ability for users to save emails in an efficient manner. Emails sent on different dates with the same name are flagged as duplicates even though the content is not the same. Unless LexWorkplace also hosts your email, there are no automated prompts for saving emails.
