Expresso 2.0 from Coveo Available

June 3, 2010

We learned about Coveo’s release of Expresso 2.0 in a news item sent by one of my two or three readers. The story “Coveo Launches Coveo Expresso 2.0 Beta” stated:

At no cost, Coveo Expresso offers enterprise-class, advanced information access for small- and medium-sized businesses or corporate departments, for up to 50 users, 1 million email items and 100,000 documents. Coveo Expresso is easily expandable to accommodate a larger number of users, at a price point significantly lower than any other enterprise search platform on the market, including appliances, and with far superior functionality. Coveo Expresso has already been downloaded by hundreds of organizations at www.coveo.com/expresso

Expresso includes expanded access to enterprise information including desktop content, SharePoint files, and file shares, through the Coveo Outlook Sidebar. Users can search across enterprise systems without leaving Outlook, allowing them to "search where they work." 

One interesting innovation is what the company calls its “Outlook Sidebar.” This is an enterprise search Outlook plug-in, also includes conversation folding, related conversations, related people, and related attachments, as well as faceted search, allowing users to more quickly find information, helping to speed productivity. We look at a large number of search systems and cannot recall having seen this approach before.

More information about Coveo is available from www.coveo.com.
