The well promoted and absolutely free GDS Enterprise can be fine-tuned and laden with additional features only via installing plug-ins. This is how support of archives is implemented. In addition, to be able to enjoy all features of this information retrieval system is full operation, developers recommend that you acquire Premium Support. And it costs, by the way, "next to nothing", $10000 a year for every 1000 users. Without well-paid experts Google will find deploying a full-fledged working enterprise information retrieval system not quite impossible, but extremely difficult. Therefore, in view of rather satisfactory speed characteristics of the document retrieval application and its user-friendly IE-like interface we would do it justice by labeling it as a great "desktop" full text search tool, and give Google its due for attempting to put into practice the dream of Bill Gates, namely to come into every home. It is excellent branding, isn't it?
