Exalead: Exalead Adds Up To The Perfect Solution For Institute Of Chartered Accountants In Ireland
Jul 22, 2009 (M2 PRESSWIRE via COMTEX) --
Exalead, European leader of search solutions andinformation access softwarein the enterprise and on the web, today announcedthat The Institute of Chartered Accountants (ICAI) has selected CloudView to provide comprehensive and smart access to its corporate data. The solution will enable its 18,000 members to search and rapidly pinpoint a relevant document out of the Institute's 200,000 documents spread across a variety of repositories.
"We needed an enterprise level appliance that could not only access our central website but our entire sub-sites too, some of which are password-protected," explains ICAI Webmaster, Lorna Daly. "We initially looked at several solutions but found that they didn't meet our requirements in the same way that Exalead did."
Founded in 1888, the ICAI is the largest and longest established accountancy body in Ireland, with the power to authorise members to conduct audit, insolvency and investment business work.The ICAI selected Exalead's CloudView Search Edition as it offers a simple to use interface by giving users access to the information they need, when they need it. It also automatically generates a customised table of contents based on each search results page, allowing users to further refine and explore related topics.
"We were particularly impressed with the ability for CloudView to group content by categories and effectively filter results to reach this end," enthuses Daly. "The real-time data discovery helps us boost our efficiency as well as our productivity, and therefore provides an immediate return of investment."
At the core of CloudViewSearch Edition is real-time indexing, which ensures that new content is automatically integrated into the index to make it instantly available. The advanced search options in CloudView help users increase the accuracy of their search results with advanced technologies, including full-text search, unified search and multi-language search. Administrators can also import, reuse and edit existing classifications to leverage existing technology investments or create new classification systems by extracting meta-data from existing documents.
"Organisations such as ICAI are generating content more quickly than ever before. CloudView is easy to deploy and delivers high performance and accuracy, thanks to its real-time indexing and advanced search functions,"explains Exalead UK and Ireland Managing Director, Raymond Bentinck. "Its unique navigation system removes the last barrier to unifying information sources thus enabling employees to make informed business decisions and as well as limiting the overall cost of ownership."
