Vivisimo has won the award for the second year in a row. "We are honored to again receive the highly-coveted Technology of the Year award from the InfoWorld Test Center editors who have developed strong methodologies for emulating real-world scenarios in their labs to get to the heart of customer needs," said Raul Valdes-Perez, CEO and co-founder of Vivisimo. "Today's announcement is an important validation of our value proposition and a testament to our commitment to providing high-performance search solutions to our customers." InfoWorld's annual Technology of the Year Awards identify significant technologies of the past year that promise to make the greatest impact on enterprise IT strategies, and honor the products that best exemplify the implementation of those technologies. The Technology of the Year Awards are not open to outside nominations and final selections are made by InfoWorld's Test Center analysts and editors.
"Vivisimo Velocity 5 delivers what other search products generally lack: a pleasant experience, characteristic of consumer search, that's supported by enterprise security and customization options," stated Mike Heck, contributing editor of InfoWorld magazine in his review of the software in September of 06. "The system federates searches of structured and unstructured content, which are organized into clusters. Therefore, this retrieval platform is appropriate for any organization needing to understand large—and disparate—information repositories. And with the pressure on IT projects to deliver results, Velocity can be deployed rapidly."
"Our annual awards highlight progress across nearly the entire enterprise IT landscape," said Steve Fox, InfoWorld's editor-in-chief. "InfoWorld's 2007 Technology of the Year Award winners represents the best products defining, and often redefining, the role of IT and resulting business impact."
