Sunnyvale, CA, October 12, 2004 - (PromotionWorld) - Net Snippets, the leader in Internet Post-Search solutions, continues its innovation in the space with the release today of the new version of Net Snippets Professional Edition. This new version ushers in the next phase of Post-Search for the industry, with enhancements that include support for Mozilla and other browsers, integration with Microsoft Word, a slick desktop bar, and superior report customization capabilities. Net Snippets enables users to effectively process, use and re-use search results by transforming vast amounts of unstructured results into a manageable and readily available resource.
"We believe that the coming year will be the year of Internet Post-Search - the next big thing following the focus on Internet Search," said Yael Elish, Net Snippets CEO. "Online information is now a primary resource for end-users, who are spending more and more time researching information online. There is a growing recognition that they need solutions to manage their research findings. We have already seen the search engines adding basic Post-Search tools in response to this building trend. Net Snippets has taken an even more significant step forward in the Post-Search space. Our solutions are designed for those looking for more flexibility and broader functionality, but who still want the Post-Search process to be as simple as an Internet Search."
Marc Strohlein, Vice President and Lead Analyst of Outsell, said, "We often stated that knowledge workers are the next big opportunity in productivity enhancement. Net Snippets addresses a key facet of this opportunity by making it very simple for knowledge workers to collect, manage, integrate and share content from the web, email and a variety of file formats"
Architect Alejandro Bustos, Net Snippets Professional beta customer, said, "I've been using Net Snippets 3.2 for Firefox and I must say this is the greatest thing I've ever used! I love the ability to capture specific items and save them for later use. It works flawlessly in Firefox and I use it daily. I mostly use it to "snip" things for blog posts and e-mails. Being able to capture entire websites is the best thing for me."
Since the launch of the first version of Net Snippets in 2002, Net Snippets has been setting the standards in the Post-Search space. The new version continues Net Snippets' forward-looking thinking by addressing another industry trend - the growing market share of Mozilla, which grew by almost 50% in the last six months to about 15% of the market in some market segments. In addition to Mozilla for Windows support, the new solution adds support for Netscape, and includes several major enhancements, including a new desktop bar and a Net Snippets toolbar for MS Word, enabling users to effectively integrate their research findings in their favorite word processing application. There are also advanced report creation and customization capabilities that allow users to instantly transform their research findings into professional, branded reports.
The Net Snippets Standard Edition has also been updated with support for Mozilla, integration with MS Word, and a desktop bar.
Net Snippets' solutions allow users to save relevant information from multiple sources and formats and store it in one easily accessible location. Users can also combine information from non-web sources, such as e-mails and Office documents. Net Snippets' solutions address a broad range of Post-Search requirements - from those of the individual user to the high-end business and professional markets. They are all based on an open-standard, flexible architecture, rather then a proprietary format. Net Snippets' 1.5MB products are optimized for performance and by far the most stable and flexible technology available in the Post-Search space. All products run on all Windows operating systems without slowing the computer or browser.
Cost for the Net Snippets Professional Edition is $129.95, for the Standard Edition, $79.95. Prices are per user. Both are available direct from the Net Snippets website: www.netsnippets.com.
