The present study consisted of four stages of implementing the search strategy, collecting articles and their initial review, final review and selection of studies and analysis of articles. Finding: By comparing the measured models, it seemed each of the models dealt with some effective factors on evaluation of knowledge and identified indices measuring knowledge with their certain approaches. Studying indicators presented in a variety of models, and interviews with experts, strengths and weaknesses of each model can be identified which are presented in this research. Conclusion: During studying different models of measuring knowledge indices of each were extracted and then semi-structured interviews with experts, strengths and weaknesses were identified. None of the methods had the ability of identifying reasons and weakness in knowledge status of organization and during measuring process we cannot realize what process improved or declined the final result.
