Empowering Innovation: Gerber Ciano’s Inspirational Cloud-First Transformation with Aderant

In 2017, Gerber Ciano embarked on a visionary journey to redefine legal practice through technology. With a bold decision to launch as a fully cloud-based firm, they prioritized agility, scalability, and security—setting a new standard for modern law firms.

In the early days, cloud solutions tailored for law firms were scarce. Prior to Aderant, Gerber Ciano had chosen a different cloud platform because of its affordability and ease of deployment. However, as the firm expanded to more than 75 lawyers, the need for more sophisticated workflows and deeper integrations became evident.

Discovering Aderant: A Strategic Move Toward Innovation and Growth

Driven by a commitment to innovation and excellence, Gerber Ciano explored Aderant’s cloud solution Expert Sierra. The firm was inspired by Aderant’s cutting-edge technology, powerful workflow capabilities, and strategic pricing. Their choice to migrate to Expert Sierra reflected a desire to align with a partner that could support their rapid growth and forward-thinking philosophy. Gerber Ciano approached the migration with precision and teamwork. Drawing from past experiences, they emphasized system consistency, regular collaboration, and comprehensive training. With support from AAC Consulting, the firm conducted rigorous beta testing and developed internal resources to ensure a smooth transition—completed in just nine months with minimal disruption.

“The powerful workflow capabilities and strategic pricing of Expert Sierra have allowed us to support our rapid growth and forward-thinking philosophy seamlessly. Our decision to migrate to Aderant’s Expert Sierra was driven by our commitment to innovation and excellence.”
