Profound users can now spend less time finding data, and more time analyzing and applying it. With AltaVista-powered searching, Profound provides 80 percent of defined searches within 10 seconds, and 95 percent of all searches within 35 seconds.
Profound users can also monitor the status of their searches with a new display counter.
The new release also features substantial improvements to Profound s navigation, search input, and search output review capabilities. In response to customer feedback, it also features table of content pricing, allowing users to monitor and control their spending more effectively. Pricing for Profound and Newsline has also been standardized on a worldwide basis. With this launch, Dialog can at once increase technology and business intelligence offerings to best meet customer needs.
