Show System File Results in Global Search

Include system files and folders in your search across network and team drives. This ensures comprehensive search results that encompass all relevant files and documents.

Multilingual search capability allows searches to be conducted across different languages, accommodating diverse user needs and content sources.

Show Deactivated Users in Search Results

Content from deactivated users can be included in search results, providing comprehensive visibility across your user base.

Location-Based Facets

Enable Location Facets

Implementing location-based facets for employees allows companies to tailor internal communications, resource allocation, and support services more effectively. By understanding where employees are located, companies can:

• Optimize office space, equipment distribution, and training sessions, ensuring resources are allocated efficiently and minimizing waste.

• Deliver localized information, such as updates on office closures due to local events or changes in transportation options, fostering community and enhancing engagement among employees in each region.

Key Differentiators from Regular Search Results

• Location Filters in Search Results: Employees can use location-based filters (e.g., "My Location") to refine search results. This ensures they see content specific to their region, improving relevance and usability.

  • For example, a user in Pune searching for "Holidays" might initially see results for both "Pune Holidays" and "Seattle Holidays." By applying the "My Location" filter, they would only see "Pune Holidays." Similarly, a user in Seattle would see "Seattle Holidays" after applying the same filter.

• Personalized Experience: Location-based facets help employees find information faster by prioritizing content tailored to their geographical context, reducing irrelevant results.
