Overall Satisfaction with IBM Watson Discovery

We used Watson Discovery to enrich self-serve customer capability by enabling intelligent search and retrieval of relevant content based on intent recognition. Watson Discovery resulted in a much more user-friendly and efficient way for customers to access our FAQs as opposed to having to read through static content.

Pros

  • Web crawl.
  • Create content libraries.
  • Optimises search via machine learning.

Cons

  • The Plus Plan only allowed 3 concurrent Discovery instances which was too limiting.
  • It took a long time to configure web crawl content.
  • Increase in customer self serve.
  • Decrease in inbound support enquiries.
  • Reduction in administration work to maintain updated content.
In terms of performance, IBM Watson Discovery performs well and as expected compared to competitor offerings. Search works well Web crawl, content library creation, and 3rd party integration all possible The main driver for us is that we were already using other IBM services and Discovery worked well within the Watson ecosystem.

Watson Discovery worked well with Watson Assistant. It unlocked the following capabilities: FAQs: Retrieve relevant information based on user inputs/intent recognition.

Rather than have to maintain static content and update it whenever things changed, we simply enabled web crawl or deep linking.
