Search—It’s All About The User

Ultimately, by focusing on the user, search usage will almost certainly increase. More and more, IT organizations are realizing the importance of usage, because it’s usually a reflection of search satisfaction. And from the IT perspective, nothing is more satisfying than deploying a system that users will appreciate.
