AUTONOMY COMPLETES INTEGRATION OF IDOL INTO iMANAGE UNIVERSAL SEARCH
Customers Benefit from Pin-for-Pin Functionality, an Order of Magnitude Increase in Performance, and Add-On Connectivity and Functionality
CAMBRIDGE, UK and SAN FRANCISCO - March 24, 2009 - Autonomy Corporation plc (LSE: AU. or AU.L), a global leader in infrastructure software for the enterprise, today announced that Autonomy's pan-enterprise search software, the Intelligent Data Operating Layer (IDOL), now powers iManage Universal Search (IUS). Autonomy iManage's 1,400 law firm clients will benefit from the same powerful enterprise search solution in use by more than 17,000 corporate customers, acknowledged by leading industry analysts as the "clear leader in the enterprise search market." Autonomy announced the completion of its acquisition of Interwoven on March 17, 2009.
"The rapid integration of iManage Universal Search with Autonomy IDOL is impressive, and a sign of good things to come from the merger of Autonomy and Interwoven," said Lorey Arthur Hoffman, CIO of Akin Gump Strauss Hauer & Feld LLP, an AmLaw 100 firm. "The combination of Interwoven's deep understanding of the legal market with Autonomy's advanced enterprise search platform is transformative and will empower our lawyers with advanced capabilities that will reduce operating costs, improve productivity, and build tighter linkages with our clients."
Autonomy iManage, the undisputed leader in legal document management with 75% of the Global 100 and 73% of AmLaw 100 law firms as customers, provides a common platform for law firms and their corporate legal departments. iManage Universal Search 7.0, now based on IDOL, is a pan-enterprise search solution tailored for law firms, delivering an order of magnitude increase in performance over the previous version. This version is pin-for-pin compatible, and delivers a transparent user experience. The product is available now at no additional cost to current maintenance customers.
Customers who wish to take advantage of IDOL's breadth of connectivity to repositories and applications, as well as a myriad of rich functions from the IDOL platform, can do so for an additional cost. The new add-on capabilities include access to more than 400 connectors and over 1,000 file types, including text, audio and video, as well as hundreds of new functions, including expertise location and automatic taxonomy support. A series of new Autonomy iManage's modules leveraging the additional capabilities of IDOL will be released over the coming months.
"To succeed in this new world, law firms and professional services organizations need to take an entirely new approach, and require a platform that enables them to bring meaning to all data, regardless of its format or location," said Anthony Bettencourt, CEO of Autonomy Interwoven. "Autonomy is the only company that is truly in a position to meet the demands of this new reality - and is the obvious choice for any organization looking to standardize on one platform to find, manage, and process large volumes of information quickly and intuitively."
