“We are a medium-sized law firm in the Pacific Northwest with two locations. Our primary location has about 300,000 documents. Needless to say, the ability to find documents rapidly and have the results come back in a useful format is VERY important.”

“I decided to give dtSearch a look. I knew it was used in computer forensics but I had no idea how well the engine really worked!”

“I set dtSearch on it’s way indexing all of the documents, which it did just fine. The key, however, was to have dtSearch look at the metadata associated with the Word documents: client, matter, title etc. I was shocked to find that it did that just fine. This gave us the ability to search and retrieve documents via the metadata in the document much faster with better results!”

“The next step was to get an interface that my users could use. I was, once again, shocked that there is a simple wizard which setup a web site which my users could use for searching. True, it does not have a fancy interface but I could always pay somebody to modify it if it was important enough.”

“I setup a link for my users to get to the engine and they have been thrilled with the results. The preview window even allows them to examine the documents of interest before opening them in a word processor.”

“So I bought another copy for our other office.”

“dtSearch has saved me from my users AND it is insanely fast!”
