CDx is basically not a stand-alone product, but rather an extension for your existing CDP. CDx offers you the possibility to define document structures, to configure a multi-facet search, to configure similar content and to have it calculated. If you also use a product model for finding content, you can integrate it into your CDP. With CDx you enable the display of the product model, a multi-facet search through the product model and similar content based on the product model structure. In addition, you can merge several product models into one large image in order to clarify relationships even better. If you already use an ONTOLIS product, you can have CDx configured in your existing ONTOLIS environment and get started right away. In the other case you get an ONTOLIS system with minimal configuration and the necessary ONTOLIS.Base features to map the above features. Directories for documents and product models are managed as models in tree structure. Multifacet search and similarity calculation are also modeled. The metadata used for this can come from external to ONTOLIS and are mapped, or you maintain them directly in ONTOLIS.
Configure a multi-faceted search for your CDP. Use specific filters and filter values so that everyone can find exactly what they are looking for. Offer similar content and define what criteria make content similar. Use your own metadata from a third-party system or manage your metadata directly in ONTOLIS.
Place your documents in the right order or hide them from the table of contents of your CDP. Define yourself which document should be displayed at which position.
Bring the product model to the customer. Use the product model for advanced navigation through your content. Bring multiple product models, such as components of a product, to display in one product model in your CDP. The product model provides a view of the world that pure content can hardly represent.
With the right metadata, an efficient multi-facet search can be set up, the filtering of which can be used intuitively by users. The text search becomes a secondary matter. Thanks to the similar content offered, searches can already find what they are looking for here.
Present your users a new view of your world - of your product. The product model can simply visualize your existing documentation or even show a completely new view of your product. The product model can also be displayed very roughly in the CDP, in order to always be able to keep the overview.
Your view and the view of your readers do not always have to be the same. For the case that you want to bring your documents afterwards in a more understandable or clearer structure, the document directory helps you. Build your own chapter structure or hide some documents completely.
