The Perfect Concept-Based Search Engine: WizDoc for Office
As attorneys we all know that information is power, however for us to ever use this power in a sensible manner, we must first be able to quickly, reliably, and easily obtain the necessary bits and bytes of information that we need.

Well now a new company ' Wizsoft (www.wizsoft.com) ' introduces us to a new and better way to search, called WizDoc for Office.

It can also index Acrobat files, Web pages, text files, and even non-computer files, like brochures or business cards that you have previously entered. Also you must keep in mind that with your initial indexing job the more files you have the longer it takes to get this step done. Once this initial indexing completes, then WizDoc runs in the background and making additions to the index as needed.
