HF, a leading UK insurance law firm, has successfully transitioned to Diktamen Cloud Digital Dictation to enhance operational efficiency and align with their strategic digital transformation goals. Jennifer Thornton, Head of Legal Support, and Adam Bentley, Solutions Architect, share insights on their smooth implementation and the value Diktamen brings to their teams.
A Strategic Move to the Cloud:
HF’s transition from a server-based system to a cloud-native dictation platform was driven by their wider IT strategy. With the retirement of on-premise infrastructure underway, Diktamen provided a future-ready solution that delivered functionality, reliability, and ease of use. Jennifer explained: “Diktamen ticked all the boxes—cloud-based, cost-effective, and simple to use.”
Personal Service and Tailored Support:
Jennifer praised the implementations team for their approachable and responsive service. “It felt more 1-to-1 than working with a large corporate vendor,” she noted. “Our contact Joonas was incredibly helpful—always quick to respond and very solution-focused.”
Supporting Internal Teams and Outsourced Services:
As part of the rollout, Diktamen worked closely with HF to support their use of outsourced transcription provider Document Direct. The platform was quickly configured to match internal workflows, providing seamless compatibility and end-user satisfaction.
Cloud-First Technology for Scalable Legal Operations:
Adam Bentley highlighted the firm’s cloud-first strategy and how Diktamen fit into this: “We’re moving everything to the cloud. It takes away hardware responsibilities while still allowing us to retain control and deliver support effectively.”
Testimonies:
Jennifer Thornton, Head of Legal Support, said:
“Diktamen ticked all the boxes—cloud-based, cost-effective, and simple to use. The team was responsive, supportive, and very easy to work with.”
Joe DiCarlo, VP of Business Development at Diktamen, commented:
“We’re thrilled to support HF as they modernise their legal workflows. Our goal is always to provide a flexible, intuitive solution that meets the needs of forward-thinking firms like HF.”

HF’s Key Outcomes:
