& & LAS VEGAS, NV — From the Technology Services World Show&

• Today, Coveo introduced Coveo 7.0 with Multi-Channel Text Analytics, the first solution to apply text analytics across an index of vast amounts of data concurrently in enterprise systems and social channels. With Coveo 7.0, users discover information relationships across diverse data sources, behind the firewall and in social channels, to better serve customers, increase product innovation and quality and support decisions made across the enterprise. &
&
• Coveo 7.0 provides customers with the most advanced tools on the market to deal with "Insight Deficit" -- the inability to leverage important business information siloed by systems, departments, geographies and type. The inability to get at the right information creates negative business impacts ranging from dissatisfied customers to longer sales cycles and lower levels of product innovation. &
&
• Coveo 7.0 gives users the ability to search and navigate, consolidate, correlate and analyze information wherever it's stored, via a single, intuitive interface. Coveo's configurable role-based Insight Consoles give users insight into customers, products, projects and people. &
&
• With Coveo 7.0, organizations can correlate unstructured information from multiple sources to recommend next best actions or specific content. Within Coveo's Insight Solutions for Customer Service, this enables more consistent and satisfying customer experiences across all channels, from social interactions on Twitter and communities to email, calls, chat and more.

Key Coveo 7.0 Features:

• Multi-Channel Text Analytics: Integrating high-scale, high-relevance, multi-channel text analytics across the consolidated Coveo Index allows the discovery of related themes and information which can highlight trends before they become issues, enabling more nimble business operations and better customer service. &
&
• New and Updated Connectors: Coveo 7.0 includes two new connectors: Twitter, allowing companies to consolidate customer feedback with product and brand information from the social channel with other enterprise information to identify issues and trends and proactively take steps to resolve them; and JIRA for R&D and engineering. Updated connectors include ODBC for databases and Salesforce.com for CRM and collaboration. Coveo connectors pull information from virtually any system into the unified index and provide superior functionality and integration, including integration with the native security model of each system. &
&
• Self-Optimizing Index: With Coveo 7.0, the unified index continually defragments itself without requiring administrative intervention and reduces the index footprint by 50 percent. This ensures rapid query responses and enables accurate 24x7 access to billions of pieces of data. &
&
• Advanced SmartFacets™: Even more intuitive refinement of information is now available in role-based Insight Consoles by allowing searches within facet values, improved multi-select capabilities, breadcrumbs showing navigation paths and more. &
&
• Multi-Role Administration: Administrator roles can be segmented according to the tasks required for each administrator, resulting in higher security, enhanced governance and improved configuration. &
&
• Java User Interface and Components: Programmers can leverage the Java development language, providing more flexibility for user interface and component development. &
&
• Security Framework: Coveo 7.0's out-of-the-box security framework increases integration with secure repositories, providing additional flexibility to ensure users access only the content their permissions allow, including the ability to leverage Active Directory and LDAP users and groups to easily access these role-based permissions. &
&
• Additional Language Support: Coveo 7.0 offers support for indexing and searching 45 languages and includes stemming, which automatically broadens search queries by associating additional forms of search terms.

Coveo 7.0 with Multi-Channel Text Analytics Use Cases:

• Customer service teams gain better insight into their customers, customer issues, products and upsell opportunities. Better insight helps them to more quickly and efficiently serve customers; executives are able to understand trends across the entire customer base as well as obtain complete views of individual customers. &
&
• With Coveo 7.0, organizations can combine for example, what customers are saying about a new product release on Twitter, with the support cases being logged on that product, and any bugs or defects issued from an engineering database, providing a deeper level of insight. &
&
• R&D and engineering teams can leverage current and past projects across teams, geographies and product lines, as well as gain insight into expertise. They can better determine where knowledge exists, how it can be used and how it can be captured even after employees have left. These abilities speed time to market with more innovative products, identify product issues before they become pervasive and avoid such issues in the first place by leveraging past experience and globally distributed expertise.

Multi-Channel Text Analytics on top of this combined data provides an even deeper level of insight to uncover key trends, identify issues before they become known to customers and more. This ultimately helps organizations know and serve their customers better, save costs and increase profitability." &

• Laurent Simoneau, President and CTO, Coveo: "Unstructured data is growing exponentially in not only size and complexity, but also geometrically, as the number of enterprise systems and social channels continues to proliferate.

This level of insight has yet to be seen in today's market." &
