arcplan adds search engine to dynaSight
New user interface available starting with version 4.0

(Langenfeld, 07-16-2003) – Starting with version 4.0, arcplan added a completely new user interface to dynaSight, the successful business intelligence platform for the development of individual management information systems – the dynaSight search engine. With this interface, dynaSight will soon offer innovative access to information, combining the effectiveness of an information system with the attractiveness and the features of a search engine. For the first time, end users will be able to obtain the company data they need in a form that has previously only been known from Internet search engines. The new dynaSight version and the search engine are scheduled to become available in the fourth quarter of this year.

Internet search engines make large amounts of unstructured data easily accessible to the user without the need for extensive navigation. In the same way, the dynaSight search engine makes this possible now for all of a company’s data. The end user utilizes this search engine in the same way as any other search engine. For example, in order to glean information about a product, a customer, or a cost center in a certain period, it is enough to enter the appropriate keywords to get a complete ranking list that contains all available links to the relevant data. Just a mouse click on the appropriate link and the user will obtain the complete information. Therefore the user will not miss any relevant company data. 

It is a significant feature that the search also extends to data in the underlying databases. In addition, the search engine makes it easier to develop dynaSight applications, because the construction of navigation functions can be sidestepped. Nevertheless, the full flexibility in processing information, an essential attribute of dynaSight, is maintained. You can find a demo version of the search engine at www.arcplan.com.
