Densan Consultants developed NewsLink


“Performance, service and functionality are much better than with anything else we've seen”

“We've not seen comparable levels of support from anyone else in a long time.... Keep up the good work!”
Densan ConsultantsDensan Consultants developed NewsLink to meet their client's demands for a flexible, cost-effective electronic media monitoring tool. The concept is simple. Clients subscribe to as many information providers as they wish. NewsLink then provides filters and procedures to integrate the content into a comprehensive, web-based system.

Each NewsLink solution is custom built from a selection of the following software modules:
  • Administrator - software and utilities to receive news feeds, edit content and manage the media monitoring system;
  • Web Publisher - tools necessary to implement the NewsLink solution on an Intranet;
  • Custom Query - software to manage full newspaper feeds and permit client staff to perform custom filtering of the news and wire feeds;
  • Analysis Module - software to integrate with the Administrator module to permit users to analyze information content and produce tables, charts and graphs; and
  • Alerts Module - software to allow users to create their own news profiles with the option to receive the content via email on a daily basis, or run the profiles on-line.
Densan Consultants can tailor both individual modules as well as the entire resulting product to the specific news-monitoring needs of its client.

For full-text searching of retrieved news clippings, Densan Consultants is now migrating all of its clients on to the dtSearch Text Retrieval Engine. "Performance, service and functionality are much better than with anything else we've seen," said Denis Roberge, Executive Vice President, Densan Consultants. Densan is using the dtSearch Text Retrieval Engine to search both content from external news sources as well as media-related content of a client's, such as press releases, speeches, media summaries, and media analysis. Regarding dtSearch developer support, Mr. Roberge adds: "We've not seen comparable levels of support from anyone else in a long time. Keep up the good work!"
