Albatross Review: Cloud Legal Workspace for Lawyers

Albatross Cloud Suites can include hardware, infrastructure (i.e. network equipment), platforms, applications (like Adobe, Microsoft 365 and QuickBooks), Security, Monitoring, Help Desk, Training, and even Development services.

Although many workspaces, like AWS, charge by the amount of time you use the machines, Albatross simply charges a monthly fee. The initial price of $250/month is for a base usage of two users. They then charge for each additional user ($75/user/month), and for optional help desk services ($25/user/month).

Although no platform or service is one-hundred percent secure, Albatross provides industry standard, or above, security that is monitored and regularly maintained. All information is encrypted while in-transit and at-rest, and regular back-ups are maintained in secure locations on well hardened servers. Specific information can be found on Albatross’ website.

Although Albatross Cloud does not limit itself to the legal industry, it does focus on it with its Legal Workspaces suite product.

Although they can likely handle Apple products, Albatross Cloud Suites are built on Microsoft and Linux systems. Since they offer vendor support, they generally are an asset to managing your legal tech stack.

Yes. As should be done by all Managed IT providers, Albatross will assist your law firm in dealing with other vendors that they or their products interact with.

Albatross Legal Workspaces certainly can be helpful for solos, although many solo attorneys will not find the need for the level of networking and infrastructure provided.

While Albatross Legal Workspaces can likely handle Apple products, they are set up for Microsoft and Linux systems. They are very familiar with Microsoft 365, including their Azure (directory) services, SharePoint set-up and maintenance, and a host of other Microsoft services. You will likely find more success sticking to the PC services.
