Wolters Kluwer includes Dixio for instant definitions

CISSonline, its professional query platform, provides context-based definitions through Dixio

Wolters Kluwer, a leader in information, training and software services for professionals in different fields, has included Dixio on its CISSonline platform, the only one that includes all online databases of interest for professionals. This decision is in line with the company’s strategy based on providing solutions designed to support its clients’ decision-making process, although high quality information continues to be its core product.

CISSonline has a semantic search engine with simple user interaction. Users can ask questions in an intuitive and natural manner, and the engine supplies documentation related to their queries. With Dixio, it also provides another tool that helps to interpret all this information. Users can look up the meaning of any word by just clicking on it twice.

Dixio is so fast that it seems simple. The tool, however, analyses the context, detects the language and instantly provides the best definition in each case. It searches more than 100 dictionaries, including Diccionario Jurídico Wolters Kluwer and other renowned works such as Diccionario General del Español de América y España VOX, The Oxford Dictionary or Wikipedia.
