Announces New Product Search and Content Enhancements to Global
Business Browser 06/05/2007
Concord, Mass., June 5, 2007
- OneSource Information Services, an infoUSA® company and a
leading provider of business information solutions, announced
today significant enhancements to the company’s flagship
Business Browser solution. Aimed at improving user productivity
and value, the new release brings all regional editions of
Global Business Browser together into a single unified product.
Users who subscribe to more than one regional edition of Global
Business Browser (US, UK, Europe or AsiaPacific) can now search
across all content in their subscription from a single
interface. OneSource also announced two new content partnerships
that will deliver 100,000 Chinese company profiles and more than
50,000 Australian and New Zealand company profiles to OneSource
subscribers.
Unified Global Business Browser Streamlines Sign-On
and Search Process
The new Business Browser release is part of OneSource’s ongoing
commitment to improving the user experience. With unified Global
Business Browser, users who license two or more regional
editions now see those regions consolidated into a single Global
Business Browser product. With a single sign-on, they can search
across all licensed companies and executives from within the
find companies and find executives sections of the product. The
search capabilities have also been streamlined to increase
productivity and flexibility.
To give users a complete view of a company’s structure, the
Corporate Family Report now displays all companies in a given
corporate family tree. Users can link directly to any company in
the tree that is included in their subscription.
More Global Coverage with 150,000 New AsiaPac
Companies
In addition to the product interface enhancements, OneSource
announced two new content partnerships combining to deliver
150,000 new company profiles from the Asia Pacific Region. The
two new providers include:
-
Xinhua Finance,
China’s premier financial information and media service
provider. This partnership extends OneSource’s regional coverage
with 100,000 new Chinese company profiles.
-
IncNet,
Australia and New Zealand’s leading big business database. This
partnership adds 50,000 company profiles from Australia and New
Zealand.
“The changes we’ve made to Business Browser - delivering
all licensed content in a single product, increasing the
usability and performance of Find Companies and improving the
Corporate Family tree – substantially improves the value
subscribers obtain from Global Business Browser,” Phil Garlick,
president, OneSource Information Services. "In addition, our
approach of working with the top local information vendors
ensures that our subscribers get the most accurate and
up-to-date information from vendors who stake their business on
covering their local region. We are pleased to deliver this
added global value to our subscribers.”
