Intranet Search
A company needs an easy-to-use, best-of-breed search and collaboration suite for their intranet, specifically creating communities of interest and connecting those teams together. For the small or medium sized company the tools to create an integrated enterprise database or ECM solution are too expensive and time consuming to implement. The solution they choose has to be easy and inexpensive to integrate, host and manage. IQeXplore becomes the tool to search for all content and share/collaborate. A standard hosted implementation could be up and running in a week or two. Instantly, everyone has access to intuitive search tools, seamless access to data stores across the company, ability to pull in public data stores, and marry text data with structured financial information. And, of course, IQeXplore offers some API and Power Tools to add more capabilities or custom configure services as they grow the site.
Enterprise Content Management
By integrating the IQeXplore system into your Enterprise Content Management (ECM) or data warehouse you can add great value:
- Search - Make better use of your existing search technology by allowing you to visualize and explore relationships in your search results... go beyond keyword search, index search, and crawler search.
- Projects - Enhance complex exploratory research and information collaboration on a project or task level with information visualization and analysis tools.
- Knowledge Map - Discover relationships and generate knowledge maps and trees to map knowledge your way for better use and knowledge discovery.
- Knowledge Management - Once you have established knowledge maps and their semantic relationships you can then use this knowledge to monitor new information. Or update the same process to analyze new information for similar relationships.
Keyword search is very effective for finding specific information and facts in ECM. However, for exploratory search in which users need to research and learn, discover, and understand novel or complex topics, there is substantial room for improvement. Exploratory search is used to generate information and knowledge about topics not specifically defined or with evolving terminology over time. For instance, exploratory search would include learning about a company product, identifying industry trends, benchmarking technology, or establishing best practices. These types of searches often start with a limited set of terms and specific knowledge, typically the kind of search where you don’t know what you are looking for until you have found it… So when keyword search and simple facets are not enough, there is IQeXplore to help you explore and make sense of all the information at your fingertips.
