 Should you Use SaaS with Enterprise Search?"},"content":{"rendered":"<p>Today SaaS-based Enterprise Search doesn&#8217;t really make sense mainly because there are no real SaaS Enterprise Search options available.\u00a0 Endeca&#8217;s <a title=\"Enterprise SaaS not an pption\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.networkcomputing.com\/servers-storage\/saas-approach-not-for-a-fit-for-enterprise-search.php\">Paul Sonderegger said<\/a> that &#8220;The SaaS approach has had little impact on the enterprise search market to date.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Blossom, Northern Light and Pico are vendors that have tried to offer SaaS Enterprise Search, but haven&#8217;t had success.\u00a0 On the other hand, the big-brand search vendors have stuck with traditional on-premise licensing.\u00a0 They may be doing that partly to protect their margins, but also they have a problem on their hands that their products weren&#8217;t designed with SaaS as a consideration.<\/p>\n<p>But the biggest blocker to SaaS Search is that most documents are spread across the enterprise in various repositories, and trying to find and pull together that data on a remote server for indexing and referencing is a near insurmountable problem.\u00a0 Security concerns about data being moved outside the company are also are top on the minds of potential customers.<\/p>\n<p>Given the current situation, it might be some time before a true Enterprise version of search will be available on SaaS.<br \/>\n<input
