Brainware Is on a Back Office Stampede
November 5, 2011
Brainware, Inc., a leading provider of enterprise search solutions and intelligent data capture, and KnowledgeLake, a SharePoint solutions provider, announced a partnership earlier this month.
The companies intend to optimize the ROI for global users for SharePoint and other Microsoft enterprise platforms. This partnership reflects Microsoft’s encouragement of its ISV partners to build on areas of diverse expertise. MarketWatch’s article, “KnowledgeLake and Brainware Join Forces to Serve Microsoft Customers,” tells us more:
‘We are very excited about pairing the KnowledgeLake Capture solution with the Brainware intelligent data capture platform,’ stated Chris Caplinger, CTO of KnowledgeLake. ‘This will provide our customers with a better solution for automatically classifying and performing data extraction on large volumes of documents. This joint effort enables KnowledgeLake and Brainware to leverage the strengths of each other’s products and provides KnowledgeLake customers with another option for intelligent document handling.’
This seemingly complementary solution of connecting companies with different expertise to benefit the Microsoft user community, just looks like another vendor wanting to cash in on SharePoint to me. The companies are pairing up for a better user experience. And for sales.
The advantage Brainware brings is somewhat of a throwback. Brainware can handle paper, which exists even in a Microsoft SharePoint environment. Should other search vendors look at adding this back office functionality?
