LexisNexis Australia Launches NexisDirect??

Intuitive search across comprehensive news, business and industry information from LexisNexis helps professionals gain key business insight

LexisNexis? Australia, a leading global provider of content-enabled workflow solutions, today announced the launch of NexisDirect?, a supplement to Nexis?, the core business intelligence offering from LexisNexis.

NexisDirect provides users who are not trained information professionals with an easy way to search premium and authoritative content from one of the world?s largest sources of news, business and industry information. Professionals can quickly and easily get the facts they need to make smart business decisions with confidence.

“NexisDirect combines the simplicity of a Google-like search engine with the power of Nexis, the largest collection of premium sources on a commercial database. Users can access critical information in just minutes,” said Marc K. Peter, Director of Technology at LexisNexis Pacific. “Designed for those with little or no training in research and analytics, NexisDirect is an important development because it offers access to high quality, reliable information unavailable for free online and without having to waste time inputting complex search queries.”

From a single search box, NexisDirect users have immediate access to information from more than 15,000 LexisNexis news, business and industry sources in Australia and around the world, including leading newspapers and newswires, trade press, key blogs, industry newsletters and company snapshots and profiles. Users can simultaneously search both current content and archives dating back as many as 35 years. NexisDirect provides advanced options to refine searches, filter results, email, print and download documents, and more. Due to the intuitive design of the interface, no training is required.

Users such as consultants, analysts, business developers and marketing/public relations professionals can quickly and easily get to the facts they need to track competitors, keep abreast of industry trends, monitor their brands and research new business opportunities. NexisDirect can also minimise risk stemming from business decisions being made based on poorly-sourced information that has been obtained outside of proper licensing arrangements, is out of date or incorrect.
