Best in Class conceptClassifier for SharePoint Selected as KMWorld Trend-Setting Product of 2013
McLean, VA, US and Stevenage, UK (PRWEB) August 26, 2013 -- Concept Searching, a global leader in semantic metadata generation, auto-classification, and taxonomy management software, has been awarded KMWorld Trend-Setting Product of 2013 status for its conceptClassifier for SharePoint. This year, more than 700 offerings from some 300 vendors were assessed by the judging panel, which consists of editorial colleagues, analysts, system integrators, vendors themselves, line-of-business managers and users. All products selected demonstrate clearly identifiable technology breakthroughs that serve the vendors’ full spectrum of constituencies, especially their customers.
“conceptClassifier for SharePoint was selected by the panel because it demonstrates thoughtful, well-reasoned innovation and execution for the most important constituency of them all: the customer”, stated Hugh McKellar, Editor in Chief, KMWorld Magazine.
Concept Searching’s flagship product conceptClassifier for SharePoint has been chosen by KMWorld as a Trend-Setting product for four years, and the Smart Content Framework™ achieved that accolade in 2012. This repeated recognition demonstrates Concept Searching’s growth and development, and its standing and significance in the information governance arena.
“The selection once again of conceptClassifier for SharePoint in KMWorld’s Trend-Setting Products of 2013 is always a great honor,” said Martin Garland, President of Concept Searching, “and the award recognizes our continued investment in developing our SharePoint suite of products 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. It is very rewarding that for the fifth year in a row, Concept Searching’s products have been recognized as best in class.”
In 2012, significant enhancements were made in the core product. These include the ability to operate in an on-premise, cloud, or hybrid environment. This extends the capabilities so organizations may enforce a seamless information governance and content lifecycle management strategy regardless of where the content resides. In addition, the enhanced conceptClassifier for Office 365 is fully integrated with the Office 365 product, and is currently the only product in the marketplace that offers a full range of capabilities to proactively manage content aligned with the organization’s information strategy.
“As our clients have implemented our technology suite to solve many and varied organizational challenges, we realized that what we solve goes far beyond delivering enhancements to enterprise search. Our clients are using conceptClassifier for SharePoint as a key infrastructure component in their information governance plan. Since the technologies are flexible, we are able to solve search, records management, compliance, migration, and data privacy challenges with a single solution in any environment. This leverages enterprise information assets, increases organizational performance and protects our clients’ investment in technology,” concluded Garland.
