Knowledge Plaza
November 28, 2008
Whatever, a Belgian enterprise solutions start-up, just rolled out Knowledge Plaza Platform as a Service for search and multi-user companywide knowledge management combined into one shareable, customized interface. The idea is to tap all user data and experience. In theory, no knowledge is lost, and users can learn from others in an interactive environment. See features detailed here, and note the Expert as Search Engine (EaSE), which searches user bookmarks in both the plaza and online so that one employee can search other user assets. There’s also a wiki setup and browser and e-mail integration.
Check it out at http://www.knowledgeplaza.be. They’re scheduling demos now. The product appears to be in the same category as Yakabox, which we talked about here. As I get more information, I will pass it along.
