## Reviews

### "the first and the best opensource search engine" — 5.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *29 November 2018* | Government Administration | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: it is true opensource

very easy to install

full respect of ACLs

capability to record searches and replay them to only be warned about changes : very useful \!
> 
> **Cons**: nothing
> 
> The common IT problem in an organization is to leverage each ERP by exchanging data accross company's silos. It can be expensive and it is very difficult to achieve. A search engine plays the role of a kind of glue on top of all these specific domains by offering a tool to access data even if it is not structured.

Installing the only opensource search engine currently available, was easy, thanks to FranceLabs' Datafari product, and it is a big advantage to rely on a technology that can be tuned or kept by our organization because it is opensource.

### "Un must to have" — 5.0/5

> **Xavier** | *13 March 2023* | Banking | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: La recherche par mot clé est très efficace.Il est possible de créer des requetes de boost
> 
> **Cons**: L'intégration avec O365 et confluence nécessite des droits élevés dans ces produits tiers. En effet les APIs de ces produits ne sont accessibles au niveau habilitations qu'avec des droits élevés.
> 
> Au quotidien, Datafari fait gagner un temps appréciable sur la recherche documentaire dans plusieurs sources de données (sites web, O365, Confluence, Jira)
