Search Tools

Add search to a website, intranet, or collection of documents with indexing and retrieval software.

Tools here can gather pages or files, build searchable indexes, and provide a web interface for finding information. Some combine crawling, indexing, and search components; others collect information from multiple sources or focus on a search front end. Choose a site crawler when you need to index your own pages, and check source support when searching files or remote collections. Compare indexing scope, query features, language, and deployment requirements in each record before selecting a search system.
