Searching the Corporate Network with Google Desktop for Enterprise


Google's other desktop search application, Google Desktop, is also available in a corporate version. Google Desktop for Enterprise offers similar features to the standard Google Desktop program, supplemented with the following enterprise-specific features:

  • A Windows-based Installer package that lets administrators install and configure the program for employees across a corporate network

  • Standards-based administration lets administrators manage all user preferences using Microsoft Group Policy settings

  • Integration with the Google Search Appliance and Google Mini lets users search across a corporate network

  • Ability to find email messages from Microsoft Outlook Express, Netscape Mail, Mozilla Mail, Mozilla Thunderbird, Gmail, and IBM Lotus Notes

    Note

    Learn more about Google Desktop in Chapter 32, "Using Google Desktop."


  • Support for shared workstation environments, so users can have secure searches across just the files they have access to on shared workstations

  • Ability to encrypt all user data and search index files using Encrypted File System (EFS)

Like the consumer version of Google Desktop, Google Desktop for Enterprise can be downloaded for free. See desktop.google.com/enterprise/ for more information.
