Stronger, Better, Faster -- MaxxCat's New Search Appliance Aspires to Be Google Search Appliance Killer

PITTSBURGH, PA--(Marketwire - March 11, 2009) - MaxxCat enterprise search solutions has its sights set on Google with a new product line that is up to 16 times faster than Google's search appliances. MaxxCat is aspiring to be the Google Search Appliance killer, boasting unlimited lifetime use, no artificial document size limitations, significantly lower price points, and a higher level of relevancy customization than any other search appliance on the market.

MaxxCat search appliance offers fully scalable, enterprise-level search solutions for organizations of all sizes. The MaxxCat search box can crawl and index data from company databases, file systems, servers, and portals. It can be integrated into corporate intranets or websites in minutes.

MaxxCat product developers cite "poor performance and intrinsic limitations of Google Mini and Google Search Appliance" as the impetus to develop the device. The enterprise search appliance, EX-5000, is over seven times faster than Google Search Appliance (GSA) and the small business search appliance, the XB-250, is 16 times faster than Google Mini.

Prospective customers should visit the MaxxCat search appliance comparison to see how MaxxCat's querying capabilities stack up to its competition.

The MaxxCat enterprise-level search appliance, the EX-5000, can process 2,800 or more queries per minute, can index search results at the rate of 1.28 GB per minute, and boasts unlimited document search capacity. Both appliances can be configured to produce customized query results and can search over 200 file formats.

Besides its fast performance, the MaxxCat search appliance can be assembled out-of-box in just three minutes -- a gift for those short on time. Its open template architecture makes search customization simple, too. The customization level is so high that you can custom tailor relevancy for your organization with a few clicks of a mouse.

Cost savings might be the biggest advantage of all. One enterprise-level MaxxCat box costs less than one-third the price of Google GB-1001, the comparable GSA box. And, MaxxCat boasts unlimited licensing, while Google Search Appliance requires a renewal payment every two years.

MaxxCat anticipates a wider launch of its search appliances in Spring 2009. The company is currently scheduling live demos and free trials of MaxxCat. Customers can e-mail sales@maxxcat.com to schedule an appointment.
