This document concentrates on providing an overview of the benefits of the OmniFind Enterprise Edition, which is a fundamental component of the IBM WebSphere Information Integrator portfolio. OmniFind brings together a unique combination of high quality search, enterprise scale, ease of administration and analytic extensibility.
We feel that the following elements distinguish IBM from other enterprise search vendors.

• IBM information integration and content management solutions provide the ability to access, manage, and integrate content across diverse repositories, giving You a single view of business critical information and enabling you to efficiently leverage and protect your existing investments.
• IBM views search as an extension of its comprehensive information integration infrastructure that includes information management, content management and information retrieval technologies required for building enterprise applications.
• IBM has proven the success of OmniFind as an enterprise search technology on the IBM corporate intranet since September 2003. 
• IBM helps lower information integration infrastructure cost by offering open and modular solutions for easy integration into Your existing enterprise.
• IBM has extensive, global industry expertise in delivering content management solutions that enable highly reliable, scalable and security-rich solutions.

After reviewing this OmniFind Enterprise Edition solution overview, we look forward to discussing its various elements with you in more detail.

Sincerely, Daniel Altmann
