Spotlight

 

Upon the release of ISYS:web 7, we introduced a brand new feature to the world -- ISYS SearchTrends. This search log analysis and reporting tool provides organizations and its employees with a powerful and intuitive interface for better understanding the impact of their search implementations.

In particular, search analytics provides businesses with detailed insight into their users’ search behaviors, patterns and trends, enabling them to both measure and optimize the search experience. Our white paper -- “Beyond Search: Measuring the Impact of Your Search Engine Via Analytics” -- illustrates how search analytics can extend the benefit of enterprise search and deliver valuable insight to:

- Content Managers/Administrators/Webmasters
- Marketers/Merchandisers
- Executive Management

Download this white paper today and learn more about the benefits of search analytics.

Over the last few months, ISYS has had the priviledge of bringing on several new customers. In Europe, Interfleet Technology tapped ISYS to handle its enterprise-wide search needs, while Woking Borough Council selected ISYS:web 7 to enable search capabilities on its public website. The US team brought mega-publisher International Data Group (IDG) on board, as well as the California Board of Equalization, which is using ISYS for its legal department.

At corporate HQ in Sydney, the Office of the Queensland Parliamentary Counsel chose ISYS:web 7 for PDF searching on its website; Blue Care also selected ISYS for website search functionality; and Meat and Livestock Australia is using ISYS on both its intranet and website.

Tech Tips

 

Security in ISYS:web 7
You’ve installed ISYS:web 7, run searches on the Demo index, and marvelled at how easy it was to set up. Now you log into the ISYS:web Admin Console and create an index of your fileserver's 10 Gazillion documents, but every time you search it you get 0 hits in 0 documents.

What's going on? The most likely answer is your permission settings aren't configured properly.

Learn more about security in ISYS:web 7 and the two options you have to rectify this situation. If you haven't yet tried out ISYS:web 7, we invite you to download a free evaluation copy.

Reader Survey
What resource is most important to you when researching IT products?

Be sure to check the next issue of ISYS Update for the results of this survey.

Last issue's results:
In the last edition of ISYS Update, we wanted to find out your #1 frustration when evaluating software.

The results were almost evenly split, which suggests the frustrations we listed in our poll are all valid concerns. "Too much hype and not enough straight talk" narrowly edged out the others with a majority of votes (27%), while "Lack of customer and/or technical support" trailed all others with the least amount of votes (24%).

Given the results of the poll, we're going to call our shot and ask our subscribers to put us to the challenge.

Better yet, put us up against other popular enterprise search tools and see how we compare. After all, why spend a dime on software before you know how well it will perform in your environment?

Test drive ISYS 7 today and let let us know how well we score against your expectations for software evaluation.
