Break out of the hierarchy of SharePoint sites:
Sharepoint by default provides one level of taxonomy only: the site navigation structure. But users think different. Multiple topic based views of the same content are required - independent of the storage location, list/library or content type.
Retrieve items and documents much quicker:
For quick retrieval tagg / categorize your content based on suggestions or automatically on item / document level and then navigate by category: cross-site, cross-list, cross-type - based on an easily browsable hierarchical directory (taxonomy) using new content discovery components: additional site navigations, web parts for category tree view, A-Z directory index, tag cloud, metadata lists and related links. Don't waste time for search -simply BROWSE your knowledge and distribute relevant content to people.
Finding a common language - information turns into knowledge with Web 3.0:
Create a semantic layer in SharePoint for taxonomy-driven rule-based content classification, content relationship management and search enrichment by category tagging to browse relevant information by category independent of its storage location and type - typically required for intranets, document management, media libraries, knowledge bases etc.
Unlock the power of your SharePoint data, capture and retrieve existing knowledge:
Allow editors to create a map of the subjects in their domain of expertise and display these taxonomies as additional navigations, e.g. by product groups, by services, task and process based (e.g. my first day in the company), by target groups (e.g. partners, students) or as organizational view.
Subscribe to new and modified content - category based:
SharePoint by default allows list-based and search-based subscriptions. With this extension you can subscribe to any content by category. It will keep you informed of all changes in chosen category - cross-site, cross-list and cross-type. To show all changed content regarding a product or solution in the last weeks simply chose the category in navigation and select the view, e.g. "By-Modification".
Enhance your existing WSS/SharePoint search with categories:
Information about SharePartXXL categories, category assignment and metadata - it's all in SharePoint. So it's easy to enhance the default WSS/SharePoint search, use the CQWP or search procedures from other vendors like Ontolica or BA-Insight together with our content categorization features to improve findebility.
Based on open industry standards:
ISO13250, Topic Maps, XML, XSLT, SOA HTTP web services. 100% native SharePoint solution uses SharePoint API only, no direct SharePoint database access or modification, no external databases, no external index, no additional applications.
Industry standard products and services taxonomies available:
