WAND Pre-built Taxonomies and Smartlogic Semaphore Cloud together is the fastest way for companies to begin tagging enterprise content.
Denver, CO, USA --- WAND, Inc., the world’s leading taxonomy
provider, and Smartlogic, the Content Intelligence Company, today announced a
partnership that will make the WAND Taxonomy Library available to users directly
within Semaphore Cloud.
Companies can add WAND Taxonomies to a Semaphore Cloud subscription
directly within the application and immediately begin to use those taxonomies
in the Semaphore Cloud hosted environment.
WAND Taxonomies can be customized using Semaphore Cloud taxonomy
management to tailor them for the specific needs of any company. Pre-built
taxonomies dramatically reduce the time and expense of developing an enterprise
taxonomy model from scratch.
WAND Taxonomies are available for every major industry vertical
and have been enriched with additional synonyms and relationships specifically
for Semaphore Cloud Content Classification Server so the automatic
classification can be started almost immediately.
Semaphore
Cloud works with all major cloud content management services and integrates
with on-premise Semaphore installations in hybrid deployments.
According to Mark Leher, WAND’s COO, “The combination of
WAND Taxonomies and Semaphore Cloud makes it easier and faster than ever for
companies to begin enriching content with taxonomy and metadata.” Leher continued, “The barriers of installing
software on premise and then creating a taxonomy from scratch – things which
have previously caused significant delays to enterprise content management
projects - have been completely
eliminated.”
Jeremy Bentley, CEO Smartlogic said “We’re pleased to
partner with WAND, the premier source for industry, business and specialty
domain taxonomies. Our partnership lets customers accelerate the model building
process using a WAND Taxonomy as a starting point and then including concepts
that address the unique aspects of their business.”
