Visibility, clarity and efficiency for research operations
Manage your research information and workflows efficiently and effectively
Converis™ integrates the management of research information and internal workflows, bringing together data from external and internal sources into a single platform.
Manage workflows
Customize and manage various research workflows, tasks, delegations, and approvals.
Make actionable decisions
Aggregate data and create live dashboards, charts, and tables for internal and external stakeholders to advise budgeting, expenditure, and forecasting decisions.
Track publication data
Collect, validate, and report on research publication; track bibliographic metadata as well as full text, including Open Access repository integration.
Manage awards
Track a project from the initial idea and award application process through the research itself, up to the final outcome including publications and citations of published work.
Make your work visible
Promote and publicize the research, researchers, and activities of your institution via a public, searchable web portal.
Flexible research management
Different stakeholders have different needs – that’s why Converis offers more than just information on projects and publications. Converis offers a holistic approach, covering the complete research lifecycle from pre-award workflows to research output management. Converis comes with a powerful reporting tool, including embedded reports to view the information directly from within Converis, in addition to advanced reporting options and dashboards via Converis Research Analytics.
Linking institutional systems
Converis serves as a central integration hub for joining repositories, personal libraries, and institutional databases and systems, e.g. HR and finance. Converis links the various systems, capturing research-related information, creating standardization for profiles and CVs, and reducing the need for repeated data entry.
Strong configuration capabilities
Offering unmatched configuration capabilities, Converis gives you control of the data model, workflows, user rights and integrations. Providing individualized analysis, you can assemble complete professional profiles for a comprehensive, up-to-date collection of all teaching, research and service-related activities.
Facilitating essential research workflows
Use Converis to direct and manage common workflows such as approvals associated with research activities and achievements; budgeting, expenditures, forecasting and compliance with ethics guidelines; assigning and delegating tasks and deadlines; or validating processes for an open access repository and bibliometrics.
Managing multiple types of research data
Manage various types of research information in one place, including details of researchers and their organizational affiliations. Our automatic publication matcher can enrich the research data by automatically extracting new publications from Web of Science and matching them to your researchers.
Types of research data:
Metadata, abstracts and full texts of publications
Projects including associated documents
Financial overviews and activity plans
Project applications including specific funder requirements
Workflows and approval processes
Patent and licensing information
Research activities
Study plans and supervisory meetings
