and help file system. It offers an additional vehicle for minimizing customer
support calls and provides end-users with an interactive method of obtaining
answers to immediate questions. SearchDisc's information retrieval service
empowers every organization to provide their customers with accurate

Corporate Marketing Publication
CD-ROM or DVD publication of corporate marketing materials affords portable
access to all of the relevant information concerning a company, its products
and services. Leverage the power of ASTAware SearchDisc's cascading feature
and ensure that the information contained on the corporate publication remains
fresh and accurate.
Database Distribution Publication
Publishing any database to a multi-platform environment can be very
complicated and expensive. Most companies seek outside service bureaus to
output their data and the best they can hope for is a single platform solution.
HTML Meta Tag technology enables organizations to output their database as
HTML and convert database fields to custom Meta Tags, thus allowing for the
distribution of a database on a CD-ROM or DVD to any customer with a
browser. Deploying ASTAware SearchDisc's custom Meta Tag information
retrieval system offers organizations a cost effective means of generating
enhanced profitability from their data mining business.
