Xakia vs Onit
In the world of legal operations platforms, Xakia and Onit represent two fundamentally different philosophies. While Onit offers extensive customization through its enterprise-grade workflow platform, Xakia delivers immediate value through purposeful simplicity. Let's explore why growing legal departments might prefer Xakia's approach.
Beyond the enterprise complexity
Enterprise platforms like Onit are designed for massive legal departments with dedicated IT teams and implementation partners. Xakia takes a different approach, believing that powerful legal tools shouldn't require professional services to make them useful. We've created a solution that delivers what in-house legal teams need.
Consider your needs before choosing an enterprise legal management tool
When evaluating legal operations platforms, it’s essential to choose a solution that aligns with your team’s specific needs. Onit delivers a broad enterprise ecosystem with advanced AI capabilities and deep customization, suited for large legal departments with complex workflows.
In contrast, Xakia offers a streamlined, powerful alternative — purpose-built for in-house legal teams that need to get up and running quickly. While Xakia delivers robust matter management, it also includes integrated tools for spend management, contract workflows, and reporting. Our platform is highly configurable, but doesn’t require heavy customization or dedicated technical support to deliver value. Xakia is designed to reduce implementation time and accelerate your team’s productivity, regardless of size or structure.

No, Xakia is an affordable legal operations platform with fair and transparent pricing designed to provide excellent value. See our pricing here.
Xakia offers a straightforward subscription-based model that makes sense for teams of all sizes. Onit operates on an enterprise pricing model with significant implementation costs and module-based pricing that typically requires a much larger budget. For most in-house legal teams, Xakia provides better value without sacrificing essential functionality.
Xakia focuses on delivering core matter management and legal operations tools that work immediately, while Onit offers a comprehensive enterprise platform with AI integration that requires significant configuration and resources to implement. Xakia's approach prioritizes simplicity and rapid adoption for teams that need essential functionality without the enterprise complexity.
Yes! Both Xakia and LawVu are designed to accommodate growing legal departments, though they take different approaches to scalability.
Xakia focuses on delivering reliable, practical functionality rather than cutting-edge AI features that often require extensive configuration and training. We believe in providing tools that solve real problems today rather than promising futuristic capabilities that may require significant additional resources to implement effectively.
