Best in Class conceptClassifier for SharePoint Selected as a KMWorld Trend-Setting Product of 2011

Oct. 5, 2011 - PRLog -- The leader in developing automatic conceptual metadata generation, automated classification, and taxonomy management software announced today that their flagship product, conceptClassifier for SharePoint, has been selected as a KMWorld Trend-Setting Product of 2011.  

The annual award compiled by KMWorld recognizes products that are best in class. This year more than 800 products were assessed by the judging panel, which consists of editorial colleagues, analysts, system integrators, vendors themselves, line-of-business managers and users. The Trend-Setting Product awards began in 2003, and the criteria for the awards are products that demonstrate clearly identifiable technology breakthroughs that serve the vendors’ full spectrum of constituencies, especially their customers.

conceptClassifier for SharePoint integrates natively, reading and writing in real time, to the SharePoint 2010 Term Store and fully supports Managed Metadata Properties, solving business issues beyond mere search and retrieval. Utilizing Concept Searching’s automatic conceptual metadata generation, automated classification, and taxonomy management, and also fully integrated with Microsoft enterprise search products including FAST, Microsoft Office, and Windows Server 2008 R2 FCI, the technology maximizes the strengths of SharePoint to uniquely solve enterprise content and search challenges.

conceptClassifier for SharePoint was recently identified by a leading global analyst firm as a “strategic purchase” for any company looking to deploy SharePoint and make use of the Term Store to build taxonomies.

Utilizing innovative technology, conceptClassifier has the ability to identify multi-word terms that form a complex entity, or concept. The automatically generated conceptual metadata can be used by any search engine index to extract more precise and relevant information. The flexibility of the technology renders it valuable to a wide range of enterprise challenges and has been deployed by clients to improve search, migration, Enterprise Content Management (ECM), records management, compliance, ediscovery, litigation support, and as a tool to identify unknown data privacy exposures.

“The selection of conceptClassifier for SharePoint in KMWorld’s Trend-Setting Products of 2011 is a great honor for Concept Searching,” said Martin Garland, President of Concept Searching, “and the award recognizes our continued investment in developing our platform to apply intelligent metadata tagging to address a wide range of enterprise content management challenges, and utilize the strengths of the SharePoint platform to deliver real value to our clients. To have conceptClassifier for SharePoint recognized as a best in class product for the third year in a row is very rewarding.”
