Combined solution makes it easier and faster for businesses to find what they need
At the Gilbane Boston Conference, Sitecore, the leading provider of .NET Web Content Management System (CMS) and portal software, and Coveo Solutions, Inc., a global provider of secure, enterprise search solutions, announced a partnership to integrate superior search engine functionality into Sitecore’s CMS.
Sitecore enables businesses to deliver sites that are highly scalable, robust, secure, and built to deliver results faster. The company’s CMS makes it effortless for businesses to create compelling and rich websites. By integrating Coveo Enterprise Search (CES), Sitecore’s CMS will now provide businesses the ability to streamline the end user search experience, making it easier and faster for them to find the right information from a wide variety of dispersed data sources.
Integrating Coveo Enterprise Search will also bring the additional benefit of guided search capabilities for website visitors and enhanced search optimization reporting for site managers. For website visitors, this solution shortcuts the amount of time it takes to search for exactly what they are looking for, while providing them additional information that can benefit them. It provides faceted navigation, enabling users to easily drill down through a list of browsing categories to find more particular, targeted results. By providing dynamic, guided search capability, this solution makes the search experience intuitive and fast for users, delivering positive user experiences that create lasting customer loyalty.
“We are very pleased to partner with Coveo to provide our customers with superior search engine functionality to help improve the end user experience,” said Darren Guarnaccia, VP of Product Marketing for Sitecore. “By integrating Coveo Enterprise Search into our CMS software, we not only make it easy to build and maintain dynamic, full-featured websites, but also to achieve the ultimate goal of getting users their information more expeditiously.”
For website managers, this integrated solution provides indispensable analytical insight on search functionality. Sitecore’s CMS with faceted search engine functionality enables site managers to optimize their websites and make information easily accessible for website visitors. It provides a host of reporting on how search is performing, what users are looking for, what they didn’t find, what erroneous search results were delivered, and how to correct errors to get optimal search results.
“Our award-winning search technology has seen great success among leading enterprises, and partnering with Sitecore will expand opportunities for us in the digital content market,” said Laurent Simoneau, president and CEO of Coveo. “Sitecore’s CMS compliments our search technology nicely. Our combined CMS and search offerings will benefit companies by providing them with an agile and competent solution that helps them quickly access the critical information they need most.”
