If a document changes frequently, Ultraseek Server will automatically check that document more frequently without intervention. In addition, users can instantly add a URL without requiring the administrator to do it for them. Ultraseek Server easily handles firewalls and password-protected sites, and makes effective use of bandwidth so it doesn't bog down busy servers. The administrator has complete control of where the Infoseek Spider searches, including password protected sites. You literally set it, and forget it.
Users have the benefits of powerful search and a real-time index.
The concept of constantly re-building a new index from scratch, which is how other search products handle indexing, is simply not tolerable on a large Intranet. The user can submit queries with specific phrases, keywords, or even conduct field searches. The most relevant results are always ranked and the user has the option of drilling down and querying the results of earlier searches. Ultraseek Server recognizes documents that have been deleted or changed and updates indices in real-time. The same engine that powers Infoseek's public search service, handling millions of queries every day, is the same engine behind Ultraseek Server.
