Vivisimo Velocity 5 Named a KMWorld Trend-Setting Product of 2006
Award Recognizes Company's Innovation in Knowledge Management for Second Straight Year
Pittsburgh, PA—Vivisimo (vivisimo.com), a leading provider of search software and expertise, today announced that the company's Velocity 5 enterprise search platform has been named as a Trend-Setting Product of 2006 by KMWorld magazine. The prestigious list, which will appear in the September 2006 issue of KMWorld, recognizes the most innovative products and services in the knowledge management marketplace and the unique value they offer user organizations. This is the second year in a row that Vivisimo has been named to the Trend-Setting list—in 2005, Velocity's Content Integrator was recognized.
"Assembling the list of Trend-Setting Products of 2006 is a year-long collaborative effort with editorial colleagues and analysts and, especially, users," says Hugh McKellar, KMWorld editor in chief. "Roughly 1,500 products from some 300 vendors were considered, and the ones listed here demonstrate exquisite execution designed for, and with input from, the most important constituency of them all—their customers."
The Vivisimo Velocity platform provides enterprises with innovative search solutions that allow users to find, access, explore and manipulate all available content, regardless of location. By combining the simplicity of consumer search with the flexibility and control of enterprise software, enterprises can reap the benefits of increased user adoption and satisfaction without compromising on performance, scalability, security or the ability to configure a solution specific to its business environment. Based on a service-oriented architecture that enables rapid deployment, Vivisimo Velocity can be up and running in just weeks.

"Having Velocity 5 named a KMWorld Trend-Setting Product so soon after its release serves as validation of our approach, reflects the ability of our solutions to help any type of organization boost the productivity of their users and reinforces the strong momentum we are experiencing in the marketplace."
