Report Excerpt

The Search & Information Access Report 2009 looks at... Coveo: Enterprise Search

"Mainly known for its SharePoint integration, it performs quite well in stand-alone settings, but its Microsoft-centric approach and reliance on the .NET framework could pose challenges for many licensees."

(p. 213)

More about The Search & Information Access Report 2009

Our customers say

"The Search & Information Access Report is a useful tool for anyone working on an enterprise search project. The descriptions of how search works, recommendations for how teams and projects should be structured, as well as the information about hidden costs and how to control them make the report worth your time.

3rd-Party Search for SharePoint

20-Jun-2005 --

Enterprise Search vendor Coveo has launched a "Sharepoint" edition of its search product. Why create a commercial search engine specifically for SharePoint when the Microsoft portal comes with its own "Search Services" for free? As Enterprise Search Report readers know, SharePoint Search is relatively simple to configure, but somewhat complex to customize in depth; out of the box it is quite functional but not exactly feature rich. Check out this screenshot or this one from Coveo to get a sense for their value-add. At some point, Microsoft will surely add advanced search features to SharePoint, but in the meantime, you might want to try out Coveo's free trial.
