Massive amounts of information in the form of unstructured data is buried across the enterprise in the form of emails, files and databases and is extremely difficult to find. Faced with the burden of legal litigation, or regulatory compliance issues companies throw massive amounts of resources to find the data with no guarantees of success. Index Engines solves this problem for businesses that are increasingly facing litigation and requests for documents as part of the discovery process. Index Engines takes an innovative approach to finding this information and transforming this time consuming labor intensive process into a fast, automated approach - eliminating the errors and staggering costs associated with manual discovery.

“Being recognized by CRN as an emerging technology company is a validation of our technology and rapid customer growth,” said Jim McGann, vice president of marketing, Index Engines. “Customers are seeing immediate value with our indexing solution to help them quickly find and organize their critical data assets to eliminate the risk of legal exposure or regulatory requirements. Our channel partners have played a pivotal role in fulfilling this strong demand for our indexing products and we will continue to expand our channel presence in the coming year.”
