VMS Deploys State-of-the-Art Media Intelligence Solution - Across All Media - Including Data Mining, Sentiment Analysis and Conceptual Search Capabilities
NEW YORK, April 29 -- VMS, the worldwide leader in integrated media intelligence solutions, today announced the latest module of its next generation InSight platform - the market-leading, web-based media monitoring and management solution.
This launch will change forever how VMS clients look at their news coverage. This latest release of InSight will let them quickly and easily manage, analyze, and understand data from all media types -- in near real time -- offering them unique perspectives and insights into their media coverage.
VMS has partnered with Autonomy , one of the world's most successful software companies and the leader of a new movement called Meaning Based Computing, to deliver Insight. Autonomy's unique technology can automatically identify meaningful concepts in all forms of data. This allows marketers to make sense of the oceans of new data generated about their company and their competition every day on traditional media as well as blogs, social media, and video.
"By combining VMS's deep expertise in brand and reputation analysis with Autonomy's meaning-based technology, we can deliver insights in real-time from all forms of media content," said Nicole Eagan, Chief Marketing Officer at Autonomy. "Businesses can gain a greater understanding of sentiment about their organization and their competitors -- as it plays out across everything from radio to TV to social media -- so marketers can act on the information in time to make a difference for their business."
We've integrated Autonomy's technology into our InSight platform, giving businesses actionable insight into all the content VMS delivers across all media types -- including television, radio, web print, social media and web video," noted Peter Wengryn, CEO of VMS.
"We are taking the analysis of media coverage to the next level," noted Wengryn. "We're deploying state-of-the-art content visualization tools -- including idea clouds, cluster charts, and heat maps -- that will help PR professionals mine vast amounts of content quickly and easily. And we're introducing an exciting new capability that will help ensure today's PR practitioner can identify emerging trends before they become tomorrow's news -- conceptual search."
"Essentially, our strength is to help clients discover what they don't know," continued Wengryn. "By help them to anticipate news or understanding emerging trends before they're front page headlines, our clients will have a greater opportunity to either capitalize on the upturn or protect their brands and minimize economic damage."
Using conceptual search, users can easily uncover consumer sentiment, highlight emerging trends, monitor its impact on marketing, and quickly focus on key issues they might not have been aware of otherwise. This will help provide them with a better understanding about the discussion across the media about or related to their product, service, company or competitor.
"Imagine if fast food restaurants had had a tool like this when oversize portions were in the limelight," observed Wengryn. "The buzz was building about trans fat in foods and the link to obesity in children. When the news started to focus on the unhealthy meals at fast food restaurants, it was already too late."
"If these companies had been able to identify -- using conceptual search -- how the negative coverage in the traditional and social media was beginning to grow, they could have introduced healthy menus sooner, avoiding all the negative publicity."
In addition to conceptual search, the key visualization tools included in this release of InSight are:
-- Idea Cloud: The "Idea Cloud" analyzes media coverage to reveal key
topics and related items, from a potentially unlimited number of
articles or clips, and displays them in a "cloud" of words or phrases.
Users can easily see and better understand the key concepts that span
thousands of articles or clips, without having to review each one,
dramatically increasing productivity.
-- Cluster Chart: A cluster is a group of documents that are similar
based on the "concepts" contained in each document. Clustering allows
user to automatically identify important themes or information
groupings from large sets of data. Users can quickly identify the
topics that are the most popular, and adjust their PR tactics
accordingly.
-- Heat Map: The "Heat Map" presents the combination of the amount of
the coverage and the sentiment or "tone" of that coverage. This will
help users visualize the relationships between all their coverage and
its tone, so they can identity hot spots and react more quickly.
-- Spectrograph: This is a virtual timeline that will let users see how
coverage of a story changes, and how concepts develop they can adjust
their media plans in real time.
"At VMS, we are committed to building the most comprehensive media intelligence solutions for our clients, leveraging the best software technology available, all delivered at an affordable price," concluded Wengryn. "This next generation of our market-tested InSight platform will be the benchmark that all other solutions in our market will be compared against."
"With this announcement, simple "monitoring solutions" will no longer suffice. Only VMS is delivering the answers to tomorrow's media intelligence challenges - today," concluded Wengryn.
VMS will be announcing additional new modules and enhancements of InSight, and will continue to expand their content offerings, throughout 2010.
