MatchWork Roadmap 2008/2009
MatchWork’s Roadmap Process for 2008-2009 builds on the new architecture and the expanded range of possibilities our new platform provides to us and, therefore, to you, our client partners.
Highlights
2008 will be a year in which MatchWork
- brings shorter response times for new website releases and for bringing upgrades of existing websites to market.
- makes it possible for our partners to upgrade to a new platform which will include major new features such as suggestive search, predictive text, guided navigation, relevancy sorting and contextual display of content/ads.
- will validate and streamline our products to ensure optimal support for the user processes for the four basic user types: publishers, recruiters/agencies, advertisers and jobseekers.
Roadmap Activities 2008/2009
New products and services scheduled for launch in 2008-9 will deliver a range of improvements and opportunities which can be categorized as:
- improvements to the user experience for advertisers (both employers and agencies) and consumers (jobseekers)
- new revenue-opportunities
- time and cost efficiencies to make life easier for our partners
Vision
Our vision for 2009 also includes an external interface in the shape of adapted and customized SOA (Service Oriented Architecture) features for partners with a strategic requirement to maximize the ownership and flexibility of their websites. To achieve this, the new products will be upgraded to offer external interfaces (web services) that will allow publishers full control of their sites, while still getting the benefit of the MatchWork technology.
More information about our new products and services is available in the full-scale Roadmap document and there will be further information releases throughout the year.
