The 10 most innovative technology companies

InfoTrack’s chief executive John Ahern says the SaaS-driven platform (WebVOI) reduces the risk for lawyers and helps reduce fraud as well, while obviously freeing up more time for them to service client needs.

Understanding customer pain points also drives innovation at legal technology firm Infotrack, says chief executive John Ahern.

“It’s a really simple approach to innovation at InfoTrack and that’s understanding what issues or what problems your customers have,” Ahern says.

“What our people do is spend time in a law firm, understand the problems the firm’s having and then connecting the two together.
