Leveraging search to boost efficiency

An Austrian manufacturer has deployed search technology to help its employees quickly access important information. Pöttinger, a maker of agricultural machinery, has implemented Coveo G2B for Intranets, an enterprise search-powered information access solution.

Pöttinger had been looking for a Web-based solution that could index data quickly and allow workers to find the information necessary to do their jobs more efficiently, according to a recent press release from Coveo. The software's security rights management features will help Pöttinger administrators set security levels on documentation and employees, allowing those with permission to gain access to certain data.

"Within a half-hour of downloading the software, we had it indexing 10,000 documents and running smoothly," says Dietmar Wallner, IT systems administrator at Pöttinger. "In addition to being simple to deploy and manage from an administrator's viewpoint, our employees regularly comment on how easy it is to find what they need with the intuitive search user interface."

Coveo reports that Pöttinger plans to expand the deployment to its Web server, which would allow Web site visitors to gain faster access to information about the company and its products and services.
