Recent dtSearch press coverage

dtSearch has recently been reviewed in three publications and received some very positive comments including a rating of 5 out of 5.

  • dtSearch 7 Desktop with Spider (The index is mightier than the sword)
    From Windows IT Pro, September 2008.
    "dtSearch has made this skeptic a believer by providing easy-to-manage indexes and blazingly fast search functionality all rolled into one nice, tidy bundle called dtSearch 7 Desktop with Spider. "
  • dtSearch 64-bit Version (Search Technology Optimized for the Corporate Computing Environment)
    From asp.net PRO, August 7, 2008
    "dtSearch not only continues to remain a player in the market, but, more importantly, is one of the major players in the customized content search systems for corporations. In addition to a strong local desktop search product with a high degree of flexible query customization, the product’s Server and Spider editions provide a programming API that developers can incorporate into their own programs. This can turn dtSearch’s powerful but overwhelming (at least for non-technical users) interface into a clean Google-like text box optimized for the corporate content searches at hand."
  • Find What You Need: dtSearch Makes Data Center Searches A Cinch 
    From Processor, August 15, 2008. Vol.30 Issue 33. Page 11 in print issue.

Inmagic Genie v3.2 released

Email download notifications for Genie version 3.2 have been sent out by Inmagic, Inc. to clients on the Inmagic maintenance program.

Genie v3.2 features include:

  • Self-Service Lending. Patrons can now check materials out of the library and/or renew their own outstanding loans, either from a public terminal or from their own browser.
  • Edit screens can now have NEXT/PREV buttons to navigate to the next or previous record.
  • Checkout pages now automatically display information about the borrower and items when you move off the field. 
  • Additional configuration options such as:
    • The ability to pre-set the default Boolean value of a button on a query box.
    • The ability to specify the sort order for item records appearing in a Catalog full display report.
    • Labels for printing can be sorted.

The install is straightforward if upgrading from version 3.x.  Be sure to read the installation notes which include sections on the features that are not enabled by default (such as self checkout), and instructions on how to edit your config files to add the next / previous links to edit screens.

Please contact us if you would like assistance implementing these new features or are upgrading from a version earlier than version 3.0.
