Perceptive Enterprise Search finds what you want, when you want it, no matter the file format or its location.
Perceptive Enterprise Search is designed to enable rapid retrieval of information contained across disparate corporate data sources. A single Perceptive Enterprise Search query lets you simultaneously search across a wide range of structured, semi-structured, and unstructured formats, including email, SQL databases, word processing documents, spreadsheets, PDFs, XML data, web pages, Lotus Notes, and enterprise software systems in less than a second.
Perceptive Enterprise Search features encompass:
Indexing - Perceptive Enterprise Search recognizes and indexes more than 400 different file formats. You select the computers, folders, and files to incorporate into your index, as well as specify where the index is located, when updates will occur, and how frequently.
Searching - Perceptive Enterprise Search supports both simple and sophisticated searching mechanisms to enable you to find the precise document you need as quickly as possible. Search methods include Natural Language Query, Fielded, Phrase Matching, and our popular Menu-Assisted Query, for easily constructing advanced Boolean and proximity queries.
Navigation - Perceptive Enterprise Search automatically categorizes your documents as they are indexed, giving your results more context, and allowing users to navigate and refine a results list with a simple click of the mouse.
Discovery - Perceptive Enterprise Search enables users to better understand the who, what, and where of a given result list, thanks to Perceptive Enterprise Search Entities. Perceptive Enterprise Search automatically extracts entities such as names, places, email addresses, and more, and displays them alongside results.
