What it is

What It Does

Softlink (Softlink IC / Softlink International) builds library and knowledge-management software, not a dedicated legal product. Its systems run special and corporate libraries — cataloguing, resource discovery, and serials management — and are used by legal, government, corporate, and research organisations, including law-firm and in-house libraries. Its integrations are library-sector services (EBSCO, ProQuest, OverDrive, OneLog, Power BI).

What We Found

Softlink was founded in 1983 in Brisbane, Australia, and has operated for over 40 years. It was acquired by Volaris Group (Constellation Software) in 2013 and continues to operate under the Softlink brand. Its relevance to legal is as a tool for law-firm and corporate-counsel libraries rather than as practice software. We found no legal-practitioner community reviews.

What We Haven’t Verified

  • Most listed integrations are vendor-claimed, not tested.
  • Pricing — not published.
  • Positioning is library/knowledge management broadly, not law-specific software.
