Customer Story: SEC 1.01 AG

1 Likes

Switzerland-based Systematic Engineering and Consulting accelerates discovery and indexing results with its i5 Search Appliance built on OpenTextTm IDOLTm, enabling a 360-degree view of business-related information.

SEC 1.01 wanted to help customers make enlightened business decisions by providing quick search results of relevant intra-company and external information.

A gold mine of data hides within most enterprises. Precious nuggets reside in emails, databases, and podcasts. Uncovering those trinkets can prompt a novel idea or moneymaking product. Outside of the company, business news can help employees spot a trend, tamp down an issue, or figure out the way forward. However, the challenge lies in the time consumed probing colossal volumes of unfiltered, unrelated news and data. Little wonder that businesses yearn for ways to conduct meaningful searches and tap the results they really need.

SEC 1.01 leverages the searching and indexing capabilities of the IDOL Information & Data Analytics platform to drive its i5 Appliance search engine. SEC’s i5 Appliance enables comprehensive discovery of internal company information from 400 data sources – whether in file share, database, SharePoint, Microsoft Exchange Server email, or numerous other formats. Additionally, the i5 Appliance searches data on news websites, online newspapers, governmental information, and social media channels.

According to Meyer, IDOL software provides an easy-to-use, indexing platform for efficient information management.

“We saw that Gartner ranked HP IDOL as the best enterprise search platform,” Meyer notes. “There are capabilities to transform speech to text, analyze images, and conduct OCR (optical character reader) on images and PDFs.”

SEC enhanced and developed a number of application programming interfaces (APIs) to ensure high levels of operability and stability on its i5 Appliance. Meyer says, “We acquired substantial software capabilities on the IDOL platform to build an appliance that we can install in one or two days at a customer site. I see our competitors trying to parcel open source products together, but IDOL is already there with a complete ecosystem of needed components.”
