Alacra, Inc., a leading provider of online business information solutions, announced today the launch of a new Ajax-driven Keyword Search in the Alacra Store
Tutorial Details:
This enhancement, combined with Alacra's easy to use interface, enables business professionals to search for and discover reports from all of the premium database providers in the Alacra Store. Users can now search simultaneously for premium content from every publisher by keyword, date range, report price, content category, and database publisher. Additionally, users have the option to query and gather data on any company found within Alacra's expansive company universe.
On the Alacra Store homepage at www.alacrastore.com, users are presented with a simple search form that enables federated searching across all of the Alacra Store premium content. After submitting a query, relevant results are displayed clustered by content category, including company profiles & financials, credit & investment research, market research, economic data, and news. The search results also include the ability to display the keyword in context (KWIC) for all text documents on the search results page. The KWIC feature allows users to see the frequency and context in which their search terms appear in the relevant documents, increasing users' confidence in their purchasing decision.
"We are thrilled to offer our customers the ability to leverage the latest technologies to identify the premium content they are seeking", said Steve Goldstein, CEO of Alacra. "Since our new Keyword Search uses Ajax technology, the entire Web page does not have to be reloaded each time the user makes a change to the search criteria, resulting in a flexible, interactive, and streamlined user experience."
Launched in August, 2005, the Alacra Store currently contains over 200 million reports on more than 350,000 public and private companies from over 35 premium business information publishers such as CreditSights Datamonitor The Economist Intelligence Unit, Fitch Ratings, The Freedonia Group, Newstex, Snapdata International, and Thomson Financial. Using the latest in Web development techniques, the Alacra Store now offers an interactive search experience where users can continuously refine their search criteria to yield the results they are seeking.
