Small companies cannot afford corporate search?
In this quite old study
40% of corporate users reported that they can not find the information they need to do their jobs on their intranets."
Jakob Nielsen sayd back in 2004 that "it comes to more than US$1trillion per year that's being wasted by people not being productive when they're on the computer."
The market of corporate search grown 32% and achieved $976m last year accroding to recent IDC study, however it seems that nothing changed for small and medium sized companies since 2004. There are big players on corporate search market (pretty much all of the big players are present on this market now), however the price point for simplest corporate search solutions is just too high for pro-sumers or SOHO users to afford it.
Is it the time for the new killer app? Would it be a hosted application, peer-to-peer or server based app? Is there any study available on small business market for team/company search solutions?
