Vantage
Vantage is the product of over 6 years’ consulting and development by our expert technical team. Mason & Cook wanted to deliver a technical resource management solution for the legal industry that at its very foundations meets the exact needs of our clients. To achieve this, its foundations, processes and functionality have been designed and developed through engagement with numerous clients across the legal sector.

Configurable
Making the process work for you
Every legal firm is different and each operate in their own way. We didn’t build Vantage to a set template. Vantage has the foundations that all firms require and can then be built upon, tailored and configured to enable it to work how your firm needs it to – whether you’re a large multi-national organisation, a legal department within a bigger company, or a smaller, regional firm.

Integrated
Maintain the fidelity of your data across systems
Vantage can accept data feeds from your Practice Management, HR and Time Recording systems, data warehouses or custom applications so that data across the firm is consistent and reliable. When automated integration is not required, Vantage offers the capability for you to import your organisation’s data, for example using csv files, without the overhead of manual entry or bespoke development.
Efficiency
Managing your most valuable resource
Vantage provides a toolkit ensuring the Management processes can be carried out as quickly and efficiently as possible, while delivering new benefits to your people – your most valuable Resource.


Engaging
User-focused, on all users
Vantage engages with the user and lawyers and as such helps to engage them in the resource management process.
Responsive
Anytime,

Desktop, tablet or mobile – access the power of the Vantage platform conveniently, wherever you are.
