Additionally, we rolled out our new website.  Collectively, these milestone moments kick off a new phase in our formidable history.  The year ahead for ISYS will be characterized by aggressive growth on all fronts, most importantly on the product development side of things.  We invite media, analysts and customers to contact us to learn more about our direction and what the roadmap looks like.

Over the years, Microsoft has been routinely criticized for its poor search, and much of the current commentary is directed at the confusion over Microsoft’s multiple search offerings. To be sure, that confusion will eventually fade as SharePoint’s penetration increases and the FAST technology that Microsoft purchased finds a home in the Microsoft search ecosystem. But that clarity isn’t arriving tomorrow, or any time in the near future.

More pressing for our customers is the complexity of setting up medium- to large-scale SharePoint search deployments. As Arnold points out, scale is a real concern with SharePoint’s built-in search system. ISYS opted to introduce its SharePoint Web Part a year ago as a result of customer demand for third-party search that would bring an added layer of sophistication. What users of ISYS SharePoint search get are added content analytics tools, such as entity detection, categorization, Boolean and proximity search, tag clouds and more, all out of the box.

These capabilities are key, but most important are the fundamental aspects of our tried-and-true indexing methodology, which Arnold cites as key to overcoming SharePoint Search’s scale issues. Read on.
