Although petrifying documents to static image formats (tiff & jpeg) had become the standard document review method for almost two decades, native format review has increased in popularity as a method for document review since around 2004.

This is also true in the ECM (Enterprise Content Management) storage markets which are converging quickly with ESI technologies.
