Rating: 8 out of 10
IncentivizedUse Cases and Deployment Scope
Inbenta Enterprise Search was one of the tools used only by our search results team to power our search backend infrastructure. Most other teams in the organization worked with alternatives like Apache Solr. Inbenta Enterprise Search provided our team with an easy to use interface for semantic search and NLP interpretations.
Pros
- Fairly easy to use interface.
- Quick to onboard new users, both in terms of access as well as training.
- The NLP-based semantic search feature is quite impressive.
Cons
- It is a fairly new tool in the market, so not much market feedback exists for this. This made us apprehensive in using it.
- The documentation and online forums are bare minimum.
- Quite buggy when working with multiple sources.
Likelihood to Recommend
If you are looking for an enterprise search platform that offers an easy to use interface and if high performance is not really your priority, then I believe Inbenta Enterprise Search would fit your use case. For most other situations, I would recommend using a tried and tested search platform like Apache Solr.
