Google Desktop Search for companies

Google have released an interesting addition to their desktop search line with an Enterprise edition.

Google have released an interesting addition to their desktop search line with an Enterprise edition. Like the personal Google Desktop Search (GDS), it is a free download but there’s also a Premium support option available.

The enterprise edition is interesting for companies – but also for individuals. It lets you run GDS for more than one user on the same computer – which is great for shared computers at home.

There’s also various configuration options for administrators that are probably not of interest to individuals but I suspect that these options will reveal some of the workings of Google Desktop for other developers to exploit.

And there’s also support for Lotus Notes in the enterprise edition.

Google Desktop for enterprises is available here.
