The basic prerequisite for any knowledge base is fast and easy access to knowledge it contains. And this is what our OnePlace solution really can do. Right on the home page there are tiles with links to Popular topics, News, Instant messages or the most frequently visited topics. The user can get to the knowledge needed through the category tree or they can use the full-text search box. It is easy to find the answer to a question in clearly organised results.
To enable the users search for knowledge, first someone has to insert it to the knowledge base. We try to fully meet the requirements of the users and we offer an easy editorial process, the possibility of bulk import and other actions such as moving, deleting or publication of more topics simultaneously. There is an HTML editor available, in appearance similar to MS Word to which most users are accustomed.
The fundamental pillar of OnePlace is the possibility to determine the responsibility for inserted knowledge. Every user in charge of a part of the knowledge base is responsible for the content quality and knowledge topicality by setting its validity. Then ordinary users only see the currently valid knowledge and only that they are authorized to. All the rest, including inaccessible categories or functionalities of the application, remains hidden for maintaining clarity. Hand in hand with the validity goes the high clarity of the user interface. If it is necessary to come back to the historical knowledge, the „reader historian“ user enables an ordinary user to access the knowledge the validity of which expired and in such a way, that it is clear at first sight which knowledge is no longer valid.
Reports provide information about most frequently searched terms, visit rate and evaluation of topics, detailed history of their processing and confirmation of read instructions.
We regularly visit our customers to find out what could be done better. Our customers have designed an application that meets their most demanding needs. In regularly irregular cycles we issue new versions that always bring new functionality, optimizing or improvement of control, appearance and behaviour of OnePlace.
I am an operator and a customer asks me about something I do not remember.
Where should I find the information?
Is what I found correct and valid?
How was it in the previous version, what is new about this piece of information?
What is new today, what are we supposed to tell the customers?
Who should I let know that some information is missing or incorrect?
I do not want to read long documents, I need to find quickly only the essentials.
