flexible, easy to use knowledge database

Pros

Easy Set-Up and Trainings. Rollout without any problems. Good usability.

Pros

Search, Dialogs, Conenction with other USU Services. Flexibility for entry pages and "Like-Button" for articles.

Cons

Design could be a little bit more modern and felixble in case of document view. Otherwise everything fine.

A very powerful tool for knowledge management in service environments with excellent vendor support.

Pros

The intuitive handling, the wide area of application as well as the capability to cover complex business needs.

Cons

A full implementation with all available functions in a complex business environment can be a challenge (from administrative POV) because of the detailed configuration possibilities. However the vendor offers great support in this stage.

We are using Knowledge Center as our central information plattform for our customers.

perfect information base for our customers and also our employees in the service center

Pros

Knowledge Center is one of our central components in our support concept. We really like the acitve document technology, especially the active search and the troubleshooting guides. This allows our customer to find all information with just one search.

Cons

There is a learning curve for the administrator, but when you get it it's perfect. No other complaints.

Easy to use. Nearly everything is configurable with less "Clicks"

Pros

- the possibility to arrange knowledge as an interactive Dialog
- the easy arrangement of Infoobjects to build a view for usergroups
- the straight right-management on documents + user (groups) + kategories

Cons

As an Admin:
to use the possibilities of customizing there are (many) different views (UX) and different concepts of doing something to understand (Version 6.7)

Flexible, to customer-service needs designed platform, high standard, very good service /support.

The software helps to enhance the Customer Service situation easiliy: consistent knowledge over all channels, up-to-date content, feedback & notifciations etc. I learned a lot from dealing with the platform because USU enhances the modules and usability in cooperation with their customers (serveral branches). At the end my profit was a very satisfied client who got the best designed technical soltuion for his needs and an optimal price-service ratio. The software is designed for a very good knowledge & contact-management for customer services, incl. interfaces etc.

Pros

I was tasked to find out a professional & suiting knowledge platform to support the customer service environment of a Telco company. The challenge was to find a reliable supplier who offers a combination of knowledge base for consistent content in several support channels & online help, guided-solution option, e-learning capabilities & enhancements for future chatbot-application. Data security also was an important issue. USU offered the best 1 source solution therefore compared to more than 30 other suppliers and it was an excellent cooperation with them from sales to set-up of the project. The user-team just commented that they are happy with USU at present. I would recommend highly: technology foresight, reliability and professional support.

Cons

I had no negative experience during search, personal contact, solution-presentation as well as optimisation, sales & set-up.

We have had good experience with the software by USU. Our employee use that daily and appreciate it.

Pros

I like the automatically resubmission process very well, because it helps to check all the information. This process means, that you can provided the document with an date and the software reminds you to actualize that in an regularly interval. It needs to make sure, that all of our published information are up to date and therefore in a good quality.
Also the very good word search supports people easily find the information they need.

Cons

I exists many components/ modules (knowledge miner, knowledge base, etc.), which cooperate together. Sometimes, especially at the beginning, it seems difficult to operate them. Also the individuality of design should be a little bit better in some cases.
These are little things compared with the great value we created with the software of USU.

Good experience since the beginning of the project. Responsive and system has all requirements.

Streamlined system where all the documents and resources are kept and can be found by users.

Pros

Responsive system and easy to set up. Representative sent by supplier was really helpful and guided us through all the steps of creation and editing of documents. Our agents already feel the positive change from the previous system.

Cons

Some parts (mainly visual) can only be customised by the supplier.
Different systems are used for system/user management.
