CISearch.Net is an amazing piece of software. In a nutshell it installs on one of
your servers and then sets about indexing and cataloging all of the content in
your network file system.
Users can then search the central catalog via thier browser.
Unlike Windows Desktop Search, CISearch allows all of your users to search your entire network file system through one centralised catalog.
This saves huge ammounts of network
traffic and load on your servers. Instead of each workstation maintaining its own
catalog of the files on your system, you just have one central catalog.
And unlike Google's search appliance,
or Microsofts Search server extension for sharepoint CISearch doesn't cost the earth.
