BA Insight Flexes Its Muscle in the SharePoint Sector
July 17, 2011
“BA Insight Offers Instant Search Result Preview as a Service to Hosted SharePoint Providers,” declares the press release at Government Newswire. BA Insight encourages SharePoint hosting companies to offer this new tool to their customers. The write-up describes the product’s advantages:
“BA Insight’s new subscription-based service provides hosted SharePoint users with instant, fully formatted previews of all search result content, regardless of file type. Because the new offering enables SharePoint users to view search result content without the need to download the file, and automatically directs users to the most relevant page of their search content, Longitude Preview for Hosted SharePoint makes finding enterprise information more rapid, precise, and resource-efficient.”
Ken Toth at the SharePoint Semantics blog has also taken note of this development.
The highlight of this product, of course, is the ability to peruse a document without spending the time and bandwidth to download the entire file. Another advantage is the rigorous security, courtesy of the underlying Microsoft Azure infrastructure.
BA Insight works with their customers to get the most out of their Microsoft SharePoint and FAST applications. They serve over 300 clients, including a number of Fortune 500 companies and major government agencies.
