Looking for an alternative to FAST Search Server 2010?
Get to know Lookeen. If you are looking for an alternative or successor to FAST Search Server 2010, you need enterprise search that brings files together with the Microsoft world of email, Exchange and Microsoft 365.
Why Lookeen for enterprise search
What Lookeen does differently and what that means for your daily work.
Built for Microsoft environments
Lookeen Server indexes Exchange Server, Exchange Online, shared mailboxes, OneDrive and PST archives together with your file servers – connected to Active Directory.
On-premises, from Europe
Lookeen Server runs in your own network and the index lives on your drives. The vendor is Lookeen GmbH in Karlsruhe, Germany – with no access to your indexed content.
Emails and archives in one search
Outlook, Exchange and Exchange Online, PST and OST files and online archives – with attachments, appointments and contacts. Search works even when Outlook is closed.
Permission-aware results
Lookeen takes over rights from Active Directory, the file system and Exchange. Nobody finds more through search than they could already open.
Typical use cases
This is where Lookeen plays to its strengths, each with its own page and details.
