I. Overview

As the economy grows, large companies and groups are facing more and more market complexities. New problems and situations that affect the market trend emerge one after another and market information multiplies. In the mean time, application of the quantitative method to the industry research at a high speed demands higher efficiency and accuracy of information collection. The mode of manual information collection has been unable to cater the market and technological growth. To know the market changes in a full, accurate and fast manner, to adapt to the new technological development and free people from onerous collection work to concentrate on in-depth study, a modern information center system is becoming an imperative.

Knowlesys Information Center System aims to provide a platform for collecting external information to the marketing and PR departments of large companies and groups, including the information about the companies, their competitors, the industries, prices and their partners, various information posted online by users, and research and technical information. It allows a number of people to quickly access all related information at present or in the past on a single platform, avoids the heavy burden from manual search of multiple sites. Its alarm function allows the related people to be aware of the information as soon as it occurs.
