INFORMATION PROFESSIONALS -- THE RAMBOS OF RESEARCH


The Internet has made us all researchers. And although it's easy

to search on Google and sift through the results, there's a huge

difference between casual queries and professional research.

I consider myself fairly knowledgeable about on-line research,

but after spending 4 days with the pros, I realize how much more

there is to learn.

ASKSAM AT WORK IN THE POWER INDUSTRY


"We were asked to assist a power company in Oregon with their

de-regulation project.  Because of de-regulation, changes were

required to many of the major data systems within the company.  

We were responsible for developing a Load/Stress test to

simulate a heavy day's processing, in order to see if their

information systems were ready to handle the load.


In projects like these, where information is kept in many

formats, askSam is an extremely powerful and valuable tool.  

It is the only tool of its kind that allows sophisticated search

techniques to locate information."

"askSam is an essential part of my software tool chest. I can research and collect data from anywhere and any source. Once it is in askSam I can edit, rearrange, organize, and search the information easily. Then I can present it and make it totally useful for other people via the web or CD. Fantastic!"
