It’s “year-end list season”, and Jim Gill of Hanzo is a man for the season with the top 20 Hanzo posts of the year over two blog posts!

Last week and this week, Jim has highlighted the top 20 Hanzo posts of the year, which is saying something because they’re pretty prolific! Here’s one from last week’s post:

Google Ediscovery Best Practices: Drive API vs. Vault

Just because an API is available, doesn’t mean it may be suited for the task at hand. Some APIs are limited in the data and metadata they capture. So even if there is an API and a solution can connect to it, doesn’t mean you’ll get what you need. In other cases, there may be more than one API available for a particular data source, where one may be more effective for a particular use case than another. A good example of this is with Google Drive.

And that’s just two of 18 total posts! Want to check out the rest? Check out Jim’s recaps of the top 20 Hanzo posts of the year here and here! It’s just one more click! 😉
