General Software Discussion / Re: What is the currently best Desktop Search software?
« on: December 16, 2015, 03:18 AM »
Hello, i am a mainframe system engineer, i store all the technical papers, manuals ... on my PC. i need a desktop search software to be able to search a string in thousand of files, so i need a software to index the contents (essentially in office and pdf formats) without size limitation.
I started with CDS (Copernic) , but the indexing processus ends abnormally , contacted the support, they said that i have to exclude some files ...; not a ggod tool
I changed to X1 : very happy, quick , fast , reliable but then i discover that some string are not found and the support tells me that there is a file size limitation of 2Mb (due to the Oracle engine behind)
Thanks to the forum, I have to try now dtsearch or archivarius, archivarius license is very affordable (25 instead of 200 USD for dtsearch) so i normally will go with it if the test is ok
