Intellexer Categorizer 1.2

Overview

We already praised EffectiveSoft, the developer from Eastern Europe, for Intellexer Summarizer. This time, we chose to try out the Intellexer Categorizer, and obviously this piece of software requires prior knowledge of what a categorizer can do for your business. Categorizer is a convenient solution for companies with large amounts of documentation that creates a mess. Categorizer is a semantic solution designed to help management categorize the company’s documentation.

This professional software sorts documents. Intellexer Categorizer is a desktop solution designed to assist managers in sorting out and compartmentalizing documents on their hard drive. At the beginning, a user needs to specify titles of categories and set their models to be used as samples when Categorizer will look for the similar documents. This is a commercial software with 15 days trial period. We strongly recommend users take advantage of the trial version to see whether this application is the right solution for their documentation organizing needs.

Intellexer Categorizer implements semantic analysis instead of a single word analysis of the contents of your documents when categorizing them. This provides greater categorization quality and accuracy. Categorizer is capable of resolving the information overload problem for middle-sized companies. Companies that need business information management, patent analysis, evaluation of business competitors, gathering intelligence and many other projects may require this sort of powerful categorization for further analysis.
