THE PROBLEM:
Lost Productivity and Increased Risk
Employees spend as much as 25% of their work week searching, and often failing to find,
critical data across the enterprise.* As a result, companies incur hidden costs of thousands
or even millions of dollars every month in lost productivity.
Meanwhile, IT organizations are under pressure to make information more available to end
users without compromising information security. Regulations such as HIPAA, Sarbanes-Oxley
and others can impose serious penalties when vital data is mismanaged.

Components
X1 Professional Client
The award-winning X1 Professional Client is the unifying user experience for the X1 Enterprise Search Suite.
It provides a single interface to Find, Preview, and Act on information of any type, in any location.
The Client supports more than 400 file formats and provides full fidelity, interactive content previews; meaning content is shown in
its original formatting, even without the source application. In addition to its robust file format support, the Client supports all
major email clients and servers as well as .PST archives and Exchange Public Folders.
Through its powerful yet intuitive interface, users can search, filter, and sort by virtually any metadata attribute using simple or advanced search
methods including keyword, Boolean, range, and proximity based searching.
X1 Enterprise Server
The X1 Enterprise Server provides a secure and highly scalable indexing and federation engine for network based content sources and
IT managed applications and repositories. Through the embedded Federation Engine, the Server can combine results from its own
cluster of distributed indexes with results from foreign repositories and indexes to deliver a single integrated set of results.
X1 Content Connectors
Content Connectors are packaged software modules that extend the reach of the X1 Enterprise Search Suite.
Content Connectors provide access to and the ability to take action on content stored within remote data sources and applications.
X1 delivers packaged Content Connectors that integrate enterprise repositories, messaging and email management servers, enterprise search engines, and web
services enabled applications into the award-winning X1 Professional Client.
X1 Software Development Kits (SDKs)
X1 Client and Server SDKs let developers create customized client integrations and client or server based Content Connectors that access content
housed within unsupported or proprietary data sources.
The X1 Client SDK lets developers access, extend, and customize the X1 Professional Client. With the X1 Server SDK, developers can
extend the reach of the X1 Enterprise Server through the creation of indexing or federating Content Connectors.
