Far from simply search

Intelliseek reports that Enterprise Search Server (ESS) 4.5 builds on the software's already proven ability to simultaneously search, through real-time federated search architecture, a variety of disparate sources and includes the added ability to rank findings by date. ESS 4.5 searches even more data than before and now supports the real-time analysis of HTML files, Microsoft Word, Excel, PowerPoint and Adobe PDF documents.

New features to help businesses stay on top of relevant knowledge include:

Enhanced results analysis: The ESS Results Analyzer is said to improve the quality of results returned to the user by downloading and analyzing every document for accuracy. The new release transparently tackles analysis of multiple document formats (including popular office document formats, PDF files, etc.) in multiple languages in the real-time filtering process to guarantee freshness and usefulness of search results delivered to users.

Personalized search Users can personalize their search experience to target those groups of sources in real time that are useful in their individual job functions and save these groups for future searches. Additionally, Relevance Tuner controls how results are ranked and displayed.

Enhanced alerting: To watch a specific research issue or monitor arrival of new information related to a specific competitor, users can now schedule alerts to run more frequently or run them on demand using improved Search and Page Alerts.

New administration tools: Engine Watch automatically tests information sources for accuracy and generates a report indicating the reliability of each source broker.

Deep search analysis:A new search analysis capability provides a one-page summary of information requested and returned for each query, including the number of results retrieved, duplicates, and results that did not match the query, allowing users to ensure search integrity.
