Exalead Unseats Microsoft Fast

December 22, 2008

Exalead,  the French search and information access company, is gaining clients, specifically from sources like Microsoft FAST, which has seen some upheaval in 2008. Case in point: A recent article in Information Age found here reports that online listings business Fish 4’s IT director described their experience with FAST as “leaving a sour taste in our mouth.” Enter Exalead. After proving their product in action, they’re now powering Fish4’s jobs site search, with more sites to come. You can read the full news release here.  As the search industry is seeing more demand for quicker, more comprehensive, and more accurate enterprise applications, companies are scrambling to prove themselves to clients. Exalead is doing well by letting companies take their enterprise search products for a test drive. The French are invading the enterprise search sphere and winning. Maybe it is 1066 again?
