The Problem:
Many firms maintain hundreds of paid subscriptions, an increasing number of which are fully or partially Web based. Very few of these services offer any kind of usage statistics, and what information is available is often difficult to find and poorly presented. This leaves firms in the dark as to how effectively these expensive resources are being utilized. Buying decisions can be made based on minimal or even inaccurate information, laboriously collected by research departments. Knowledge workers may continue to pursue inefficient and needlessly expensive research strategies simply because they do not know that more appropriate resources are available.

The Solution:
Using ResearchAgent Auditor, research departments create and maintain a list of sites and services to be audited. When knowledge workers access these services, ResearchAgent Auditor tracks who, when, and for how long. This information leads to informed decisions when it is time to renew your service and can de-bunk the myths of "essential resources", identifying the details of their use. Inefficient research strategies can be identified, and knowledge workers trained on best practices for conducted each type of research.

In addition to tracking time spent browsing, ResearchAgent Auditor enables you to:

• Set specific costs associated with individual subscriptions or URLs
• Create Executive Summary reports using the powerful and comprehensive reports module
• Choose to actively or silently track user's online activity
• Easily export data to spreadsheets or other databases
