Funnelback Enterprise is an effective, high speed, industrial
strength search solution that can search your enterprise behind the
firewall.
Within an enterprise, vast amounts of structured and unstructured information assets are created, stored, accessed and updated every day. It's vital for businesses to be able to find and use this information.
For an enterprise to gain the greatest leverage from its information assets, employees must be
able to share and reuse information. Funnelback Enterprise makes this information available via a single web interface in a timely, consistent and
convenient manner, leading to faster, more informed decision making.
Funnelback Enterprise
can search
across a myriad of data repositories
which include web sites, intranet,
shared drives and databases. Common characteristics of these
deployments include a need for
document level security and fresh
indexes.
The volume of enterprise information is growing
at a staggering rate. Organisations are trying to
deliver more with fewer resources. There is a
growing need to avoid duplication of effort and
to make better use of the information stored within an organisation.
The key value for enterprise search is productivity
gains for employees.
An Accenture survey of 1,000 middle
managers found they spend as long as two
hours a day searching for information and
that more than half the information they find
during searching is useless.
The Butler Group claims as much as 10% of
a company’s salary costs are wasted through
ineffective search.
According to IDC, the amount of information
created and copied in 2010 will surge more
than sixfold to 988 exabytes (988 billion
gigabytes), representing a compound annual
growth rate of 57 per cent.
Funnelback Enterprise Search will help boost
staff productivity by assisting your employees to
quickly and easily find the information they are
searching for within your organisation.
Funnelback Enterprise Search - accesses many repositories enterprise-wide
with a single query. Funnelback creates separate indexes for each
repository crawled but allows users to choose which repositories they wish
to search over. Funnelback can extend across your internet site, intranets,
databases and shared network drives, as well as electronic
document management systems and portal systems. Funnelback indexes
all popular file types and can also integrate with 3rd party file adaptors to
reach file formats that are not widely used.
Security controls - restrict access to sensitive information in
repositories and business applications to authorised users. Funnelback
indexes everything and only returns the results that users have permission
to access according to existing access controls. Funnelback also offers
collection level security and can be integrated with legacy document level
access control systems. Funnelback supports NTLM authentication for
searching TRIM and NTFS based shared drives.
Index Freshness - ensures mission critical information is available and up to date when searched. Crawls can also be set to update only parts of the
index which may have changed since the last crawl and create a balance
between freshness and infrastructure load.
Scalability - enables the search service to handle large amounts of
information and high query loads. Funnelback can scale up to many millions of documents and runs on a variety of
platforms allowing you to leverage off of your existing systems.
Multimedia - search across this increasingly prevalent medium found in
the information assets of a large and growing number of organisations. Funnelback Enterprise Search can index the metadata and thereby search
corporate presentations, interviews, web casts, video meetings and
training sessions thus increasing the value of these assets.
