GlobalSearch for iPad exceeded the hype!

Square 9® previewed their GlobalSearch app for iPad at the Sharp National Dealer Conference in Las Vegas, NV and at the ITEX National Expo and Conference in Washington, DC this past month. Attendees of the events were clearly impressed with the new functionality and features associated with SmartSearch 3.1 and the Apple iPad app. The key to this application is the new GlobalSearch capability which allows users to run "Google like" searches for documents right from their iPad. Users can search across the entire database for records or only on select Archives to limit results. Regardless of what is selected, GlobalSearch can look across the entire SmartSearch database at lightning speed.

Our booth at both the Sharp National Dealer Conference and the ITEX National Expo and Conference were swarming with people trying to find out more information. The Square 9® GlobalSearch app allows users to keep business processes moving while on the go. Built on Apple's iOS mobile operating system, GlobalSearch gives users the immediate, fluid interface experience provided by most other iOS apps. GlobalSearch users can use gestures such as swipe, pinch and reverse pinch to manipulate documents, and they can switch documents from portrait to landscape mode by rotating the iPad in three dimensions.

“The iPad app for SmartSearch is a true head turner”, said Jeff McWilliams, Director of Sales for Square 9® National Distribution partner OES Solutions. “Dealers were lined up at the ITEX show to watch the Square 9® team access documents from the GlobalSearch app for iPad. With so many technology partners brandishing Smart phones for daily work activities, an iPad application just makes so much sense.”

The Square 9® GlobalSearch App will join the more than 300,000 other iOS apps in the App Store℠ in April as a free download available to members of the Square 9® community who are using the SmartSearch Web XChange option. Anyone interested in a beta participation of GlobalSearch, please email marketing@square-9.com.
