[Sigia-l] RE: Google Appliance
Thunderstone, founded in 1981, received its first big assignment in 1986
when it was chosen by NASA to index all of the Challenger debris resulting
from the Challenger Disaster.
I think all of what you claim below about the site is true, yet this is a
case where you do not judge a book by its cover.
Look at their client list
(http://www.thunderstone.com/texis/site/pages/Customers.html); how many
Universities, Fortune 100 companies and State departments do you see listed
there?
As I said, Thunderstone has begun and has evolved for the last 24 years as
an enterprise search vendor.
I use them and love them-- hence the recommendation.
If you actually value the quality of your project and could use an
enterprise-level search solution, then I suggest you get past the
superficial glance at their website and learn something ;)
Good luck!

product and customer experience are different...
