INCREASE YOUR PRODUCTIVITY AUTOMATICALLY
Relevant People And Documents Appear As You Work
In a large organization, finding the information and expertise you need quickly is difficult and costly. Instead of working, you and your employees spend hours searching, sorting through vast amounts of information, looking for internal expertise across geographically dispersed resources and navigating external networking sites for the answers you seek. The result is lost productivity, duplicated efforts and inefficiencies that adversely affect both the cost of your operations and the quality of service you deliver.
Answers finding you
Better productivity, collaboration, communication and innovation
Instead of spending time searching, your enterprise SharePoint portal will proactively deliver highly relevant content and introduce you to subject matter experts while integrating popular social networking features. By analyzing the content created by users, information they access, and the nature of their communications with other personnel, DiscoverPoint is able to identify their interests and areas of expertise. Based on this understanding, it then automatically creates connections to relevant key experts, resources and published content including documents, presentations, blogs, wikis and more within your SharePoint environment. Most importantly, this is accomplished without requiring the manual collection and maintenance of a skills/assignments database. With DiscoverPoint, you will see better productivity, collaboration, communication and innovation within your organization.
Features & Benefits
DiscoverPoint Software delivers the following benefits to organizations:
- Speeds the ability to find both relevant information and related subject matter experts for faster collaboration and sharing of information
- Proactively Discovers and delivers new and critical information, which reduces time spent searching
- Facilitates creation of communities of interests based on knowledge worker's areas of expertise and related searches
- Discover colleagues and data to expedite decisions in real-time, regardless of their geographic or organizational characteristics
The key difference between DiscoverPoint and other technologies? Automation
Automation ensures the data is timely, accurate
DiscoverPoint, supplemented by technology such as Autonomy's IDOL Server, eliminates the requirement for users to manually update or maintain separate forms or databases to describe their areas of interest, and current assignments. Automation ensures the data is timely, accurate, and avoids the time/cost needed to administer such information. Knowledge workers spend less time doing administrative tasks and have more time to apply their areas of expertise.
Once a user's interests are understood, information delivery happens automatically. For example, as the system encounters new highly relevant data, it compares the content to the users' profiles and automatically delivers information to users through their SharePoint My Site pages. Additionally, since the system has an understanding of the entire user community, it is able to suggest appropriate information, colleagues and authorities on the data recommended. Additionally, and most importantly, Discover facilitates real-time collaboration between subject matter experts.
More time applying expertise = faster and better quality results. It's that simple.
DiscoverPoint is an information discovery and collaboration environment that delivers immediate, significant results, with a measureable return on investment. It allows Autonomy and SharePoint users to achieve benefits that are considerably greater than the two applications running independently. It couples the strengths of these industry-leading technologies, while adding features and functions that enable organizations to accomplish their information discovery goals, become proactive and expedites the ability to make decisions based on thoroughly analyzed data.
