SharePoint 2013 eDiscovery provides a centralized solution for managing eDiscovery cases across multiple systems. Key features include a case manager for creating and managing discovery projects, placing content on hold from a central location, and conducting searches across SharePoint and Exchange. In-place holds allow content to be preserved while still allowing changes. Analytics capabilities allow collection and analysis of eDiscovery activity data. While SharePoint 2013 eDiscovery provides an integrated solution leveraging existing technologies, it does not provide a fully end-to-end solution and some content sources cannot have in-place holds.
