Attivio Announces AIE for SharePoint Integration

NEWTON, Mass., Jan. 11, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Attivio, Inc. today announced the availability of its Active Intelligence Engine™ (AIE) for SharePoint Integration, which gives customers a single interface to find and aggregate information across multiple SharePoint instances as well as other information sources, including websites, databases, email, CRM and other systems.

Organizations struggle to provide immediate and secure access to comprehensive information, which is typically dispersed in multiple formats -- across an exploding number of SharePoint sites.  The difficulty of discovering and delivering timely insight derived from all of these resources exposes gaps in an organization's ability to integrate and rapidly update information; providing a single method for users to find the information they need, regardless of its origins.  AIE for SharePoint Integration enables secure access to all types of information by unifying diverse datasets, while avoiding the cost and delays of cumbersome legacy integration stages.

"When SharePoint is brought into an organization, its use spreads quickly and before you know it, the organization has hundreds or thousands of SharePoint pages," said Sid Probstein, CTO, Attivio.  "In fact, in just the last few minutes, new SharePoint sites were likely created at several of the organizations we work with.  The rapid growth of SharePoint adoption facilitates collaboration at a department level, but also raises concerns as it lacks robust built-in search capabilities across servers and there's no simple way to reuse SharePoint content in other reporting mechanisms.  When information exists, but people can't get the insight they need, when they need it, companies can't maximize the return on their information assets.  With Attivio's AIE for SharePoint Integration, we're helping some of the world's largest users of SharePoint easily search, identify and integrate key content and data points more easily than ever before."  

AIE for SharePoint Integration is built on Attivio's award-winning unified information access platform, the Active Intelligence Engine, which integrates all types of information, regardless of source or format, delivering complete information in response to a single query.  AIE delivers comprehensive insight -- identifying new opportunities to maximize revenue; reduce implementation, support and infrastructure costs; improve customer satisfaction and retention; and drive competitive advantage.  

AIE for SharePoint Integration provides important advantages over legacy methods for finding information:

• Delivers high-performance access to diverse information
• Retains data relationships from text sources, ensuring relevancy and comprehensiveness of query results
• Offers text analytics, such as classification, key phrases and sentiment analysis
• Presents results in a variety of customizable interfaces, from lists and reports to interactive dashboards -- most importantly, in and across SharePoint, using Attivio's SharePoint WebParts UI Library
• Automates information delivery and alerts to people, interfaces and designated applications
• Rapid implementation so time-to-value is achieved in weeks rather than months
• Closes security gaps with Active Security, AIE's unique rapid update permissioning, ensuring users see only what they are authorized to see

Organizations that adopt AIE to integrate SharePoint content with other information sources not only improve the results of information queries, they also protect their investment by laying the groundwork  for additional uses of unified information access, so they can move up the value curve to truly optimize all of their information assets.

Regardless of format -- structured, unstructured or semi-structured, Attivio's Active Intelligence Engine delivers vital business information to users, on-demand.  For more information on AIE for SharePoint Integration, please click here.
