The forth portlet, called Quick Text, allows users to easily show specific content pages from your TitanWEB content repository.

CrownPeak Unveils CrownPeak Search

CrownPeak unveiled CrownPeak Search, an on-demand web site search system to automatically learn from both the behavior and content on customer’s web sites and automatically deliver the most relevant search results. Two years in development, CrownPeak Search monitors every search request and every user interaction to learn and improve over time, adapting future searches to ensure fast, relevant results. It is built specifically to add value to web content, helping organizations enhance the site search experience for site visitors. Like the company’s CrownPeak CMS content management solution, CrownPeak Search is offered as “software-as-a-service,” so there is no hardware to buy, no packaged software to install, and no changes needed to existing environments. CrownPeak customers get a dedicated account manager who works with them every quarter to perform a “tune-up” on the search system. This tune-up process is included in CrownPeak’s standard monthly software fees. CrownPeak Search customers have as much control over their own content as they choose, while machine learning capabilities minimize administrative demands by automatically making necessary adjustments based on semantic analysis and various learning techniques. CrownPeak Search begins to re-prioritize results based on how new the content is, what search queries are performed, how popular the content is, and what types of content visitors select from results. CrownPeak is offering an implementation guarantee with CrownPeak Search. If a customer isn’t satisfied with the system, CrownPeak will modify it until satisfaction is achieved.

Davisor Introduces Webisor 1.0

Davisor introduced Webisor 1.0 for converting dynamic HTML into PDF. Webisor 1.0 is a tool for creating PDFs and printouts, such as invoices, order confirmations, personalized offers and marketing materials, reports, and forms pre-filled with information from databases. With Webisor 1.0, companies create personalized materials from any HTML-based applications quickly. Webisor 1.0 is the latest addition to the Davisor Offisor product family of Java- and XML-based products, and contains an HTML parser that converts even non-standard HTML into correctly sized PDF. Webisor 1.0 does not require any changes to be made to the existing dynamic web application in order to produce the PDFs. And as Webisor runs on the company’s server, the end-users need no other software than a browser and a free Adobe Reader plug-in. Webisor 1.0 creates PDFs, which look exactly like the original HTML page or it can be easily customized to publish the PDFs using a standard corporate layout. This way you can e.g. define consistent headers and footers on every page, regardless of what the original HTML pages looked like. With Webisor 1.0, companies can make full use of their various HTML content and applications to produce personalized materials on the fly, and integrate information from databases. Davisor Webisor 1.0 is available today, with pricing starting from USD $5,265. Webisor can be licensed both for in-house and for OEM use. www.davisor.com/webisor/index.html
