Simplified Information Sharing and Search

infoRouter not only helps you quickly find the right documents but also streamlines information sharing across your organization. By simply typing a search term into the search bar or search box, you can retrieve the exact document you need without the hassle of navigating through multiple folders or directories. Whether the search returns a single document, or hundreds of documents, you will quickly be able to identify the document that matches your search term exactly. The search fields in the "advanced search" screen will give you plenty of search criteria options to narrow down your search and return a document list that you can work with. This intelligent search function greatly enhances efficiency and prevents a common issue in many organizations—document duplication.

When users struggle to find documents, they often abandon the search and recreate files that already exist, leading to inefficiencies and unnecessary duplication. Studies show that 83% of employees have recreated documents that were difficult to locate, wasting valuable time and resources. infoRouter addresses this problem by serving as a central hub for all your documents, ensuring that everything is stored in one easily accessible location. This centralization guarantees that employees can quickly access the documents they need without resorting to recreating content that already exists.

  • Phrase and proximity search: Find documents that match exact phrases or are near specific keywords.
  • Boolean searches: Use AND, OR, and NOT operators for more precise search results. Using the Boolean operators like "OR" and "AND" you can match all words or match any of a list of words or phrases.
  • Word stemming and synonym search: Locate documents using variations of your search queries.
  • Search within emails, Office documents, PDFs, and any indexable document: Search across a wide range of file formats.
  • Customizable search criteria: Search by author, date modified, language, documents by name, file name, file type, document status, and more.
  • Custom properties: Apply unique properties to documents and folders to enhance your search experience.
  • Saved searches: Administrators can create and manage saved searches for commonly used search criteria.
  • Rank and Abstracts: Search results display a document list sorted by the relevance (rank) of each document and a short abstract to help you quickly identify the correct file.

Secure and Precise Search Results with Custom Properties

infoRouter’s advanced search mode ensures that users only see the documents they are authorized to access, maintaining strict security while delivering fast and accurate search results. This feature is essential for protecting sensitive data, as it restricts access based on user permissions, ensuring confidential documents remain secure. Searching through multiple files, infoRouter suppresses documents that are not available to the user performing the search.

Additionally, infoRouter allows users to search by custom document properties, offering a highly efficient and precise method of narrowing down results. For example, if you’re searching for invoices, you can specify criteria like "Amount > 1000" to instantly filter results based on specific financial values—something that is impossible to do with a standard search engine like Google. By setting custom properties such as "Project Name", users can dramatically reduce the number of documents returned and quickly locate the most relevant files. This targeted search not only saves time but also ensures that users find exactly what they need, without wading through irrelevant results.

As you navigate through your folders, you can use Search filters, to filter down your documents to quickly identify and find documents quickly that match your search criteria.

Moreover, infoRouter’s search results indicate where the search criteria were found, whether in previous versions of the document or within metadata, providing full transparency and allowing users to efficiently review results.
