Google unveils new features for its Enterprise Search
20.08.09
Today Google added two new tools for Google Enterprise Search: Side-by-Side
search comparison and new connectors for the GSA. Side-by-Side search lets users test and rate results from two
different search queries (Policy A vs. Policy B) on the same data, to
see which gives better results. Employees can vote on their preferred
results, by clicking on either the Policy A or Policy B button and the
administrator can then use that information to choose and set up the
right search solution for the business. The GSA connector lets businesses connect to
different types of data, both online and offline, for search
functionality. It has been updated to search across
content management systems of enterprises (such as SharePoint, FileNet,
etc). Google also now provides a connector specifically for Salesforce
data, so the GSA can include internal Salesforce data in search
results.
