Run a QUICK & FREE Audit to check that your documents are Searchable

Discover how many of your digital documents are hidden from your search tools by using the FREE Audit Tool with Aquaforest Searchlight…Add Your Heading Text Here

Studies have shown that in most organizations over 20% of documents may not be fully text searchable so will not be located by text search or discovery exercises.

You may have hundreds of thousands, if not millions of documents in your SharePoint or Windows File System repository but do you know how many of these documents are non-searchable or may have errors?

You can find out the answer with Aquaforest Searchlight which comes with a FREE unlimited Audit tool

The tool can identify how many of your documents are :

  • Non-Searchable (scans, faxes, TIFFs and image PDFs)
  • Partially Searchable
  • Fully Searchable
  • Non-searchable due to file errors such as corruption
 

The image below shows the Aquaforest Searchlight Dashboard during an Audit.  Here you can see what percent of your Library is searchable and run detailed reports.

Automatically monitor your document stores to ensure your files are fully searchable.

Aquaforest Searchlight comes with sophisticated document processing and OCR engines that are capable of getting your searchability up to 100%. Document stores are automatically monitored to deal with new and updated documents.

There are 2 main stages when processing a Searchlight library, the Audit stage and the OCR stage.

At its most basic level, Aquaforest Searchlight will:

Audit

  1. Download (SharePoint or Azure hosted locations) or copy (Windows file system locations) to a temporary local location.
  2. Analyze (Audit) the files to identify whether they need to be OCR’d.
  3. Record the results of the audit in the database.

OCR

  1. If the file needs to be OCR’d then it will OCR it.
  2. If the file has been OCR’d then replace the existing document (optionally restoring original file metadata and archiving the original)
  3. Record the results of the OCR in the database.

Audits can be undertaken without the OCR stage to determine how many of your files are not currently searchable and allow you to determine the optimum way of fragmenting your libraries.

Audit (and OCR) results are recorded in a database which means that files that are unchanged do not need to be analyzed again, speeding up subsequent processing.

Download the trial version from Aquaforest’s web site and use the free audit tool to speedily generate an Audit Report on the Searchability of your document repository.
