 Verity
Ultraseek delivers superior relevance and a rich end-user
experience that quickly locates information across your
enterprise and beyond. With little or no customization,
one- and two-word queries return extremely relevant results,
while selectable options let you enhance result list presentation
and functionality to meet specific end-user needs.
Superior
Relevance
End-users
quickly find the right information with one- and two-word
queries thanks to Verity Ultraseek's high out-of-the-box
relevance. Search options include keyword, phrase, wildcard,
field, range, implied Boolean and advanced operators.
Relevance is determined through an optimized combination
of enhanced linguistics techniques, stemming, link analysis,
and weighting based on term location, frequency, and
rarity. Thesauri and custom dictionaries can also be
integrated to support specific industries and business
objectives.
Intelligent
Indexing
Enterprise
information is typically found in hundreds of document
formats that are spread across Web servers, .le systems,
secure systems, and other repositories. They may be
written in one language or many, depending on the content,
the company and the country. Verity Ultraseek's intelligent,
adaptive spider indexes all of this content into a common
Ultraseek Index that makes it searchable with a single
query. Ultraseek can even spider Javascript, allowing
it to find and index dynamically generated Web pages.
Structured and unstructured information sources can
also be brought together in the index through Ultraseek's
optional lightweight database connectivity.
Relevance Tuning and Editorial
Control
Verity
Ultraseek's search results can be .ne-tuned to match
information structure and end-user needs with relevance
tuning options that deliver comprehensive control over
the relative weighting of metadata fields.
In addition, Ultraseek's exclusive Quick Links feature
provides editorial control over search results, allowing
keywords to be manually associated with specific URLs
that are returned above normal search results. For example,
a query for "printer" on an e-commerce site could return
a Quick Link as the first result, directing users to
the "Buy This Printer" page.
Contextual
Summaries
End-users
can quickly determine the context of query terms in
Verity Ultraseek results lists by scanning document
descriptions created by intelligently extracting relevant
passages in matching documents. This both accelerates
the information discovery process and reduces load on
your network by allowing users to identify the most
relevant documents without actually having to open and
read them.
Spelling
Suggest
Many
unsuccessful searches are the result of incorrectly
spelled query terms. Verity Ultraseek automatically
suggests alternative spellings for misspelled queries,
using a dictionary dynamically built from the index.
This can dramatically increase user satisfaction in
information environments with complex terminology, and
decrease abandoned shopping carts on ecommerce sites
by ensuring customers find products even if they aren't
sure of their spelling.
"No-hits"
Forwarding
Getting
no results to a query can be just as bad as getting
too many. End-users can broaden searches that don't
return any results by clicking less restrictive queries
that are automatically presented by Verity Ultraseek.
Results
Grouping by Site
Grouping
results by website or .le folder location helps users
quickly sort through results list to locate the most
relevant information for the task at hand. It can also
save time in the future by showing end-users which sites
or folders are the most useful sources of information.
Automatic
Title Replacement
Most
documents created in the day-to-day business of a company
either have no title listed in their properties or metadata,
inherit titles from previous documents or have titles
that are intelligible to most users. Verity Ultraseek
can intelligently replace incorrect or missing document
titles with meaningful, automatically generated titles
to help users find the right document faster
