VentureBeat: Lookeen offers a new way way for Outlook users to search

  • rokhayakebe · 1 year ago
    Does one thing "well" (I have not tried it)
    They have an upfront business model ($39 something)
    I do not think they will eat Xobni's lunch, but they can generate a healthy revenue from their product. There is room for competition.

    There's also ParadiSearch which does the same for free.

    i considered paradisearch - crashes over and over ;(

    looks a lot like X1, which I still cant live without.

    Just downloaded it and tried it out - I like it alot...fast, nice dialog box. I'm always searching Outlook and drumming my fingers waiting.

    Hope it doesn't start crashing Outlook, like Xobni did in the early days.

    Am I missing something? Outlook 2007 has excellent search built-in, Vista can search in Outlook items (not just mail) -- what's the point of this software in 2008?

    wait a minute. with windows desktop search, outlook 2007 has a solid (if not perfect) search solution. and it's free. xobni is still free. lookeen wants $39. does anyone else see a problem here?

    how is this different from lookout (acquired by MSFT). lookout v1.3 is still available on the web and is a speedy, simple search engine built over lucene.

    As a corporate client with exchange server with over 100.000 mails I can tell you: There IS a difference between build-in search and Lookeen.

    i had problems with xnobi,even if it is for freei...i wasnt really satisfied with my search results and my pc and outlook got really slow because of xnobi, so i tested lookeen and i have to say its much more better than xnobi...its fast (and even my outlook and pc are fast). It gives me that what i am searching for...so for that i have no problems to pay 39$ once, because it saves me so much time and as we all now time is money too! :)

    I use Lookeen and it is the best search tool i ever tried.
    If you need a professional search tool it is worth too pay for it!
