File Search Assistant

I use File Search Assistant to find information in my word documents. I keep a daily journal of tasks that I perform along with pertinent information about the tasks. FSA allows me to find information in these files quick and easily.

I like FSA so much that I bought the full PRO version. I hate opening documents one at a time to find information that I need in my daily journals. FSA allows me to find all instances of these tasks quickly and easily without opening a single document. I can pinpoint the information that I need by perusing the summary from the search and then only get the detailed information from teh one or two documents where I KNOW the information that I need actually resides. FSA is a great tool that works as specified and saves me a great deal of time and effort that can be applied to more productive tasks.

File Search Assistant helps to engineer:

I have been able to use File Search Assistant on several data calls that allowed me to search through a large number of archived files that document my company’s experience. The index files that get created are very fast and very accurate. I have run several search tests that can be compared with finding a needle in a haystack. I have other people that I work with that would be interested in FSA.

PDF Search Assistant helps to find required data:

PDF Search Assistant is a great tool as it allows me to find detail
within a PDF without having to open and read each PDF document. I have
(hundreds)of PDF’s.  It allows me to find a particular PDF document that
may have been created years ago with a particular piece of information
that is needed to conduct business today and without it would reflect
badly in my operations of my business.

PDF Search Assistant as useful tool:

PDF Search Assistant is a tool that I may not use every day but when I do it’s a life saver.

I am an assistant professor in historical linguistics. I recently purchased FSA for the following reason. An increasing number of articles in my field is being published as PDF’s nowadays. In order to retrieve accurate information contained in those PDF’s I needed a good indexing tool which would give me a quick access to relevant passages, not for once, but also on future occasions.

Many of my collegues are also looking for a good program to do the job. After browsing the internet I thought File Search Assistant would be a good choice, which is why I decided to have a go at it. I haven’t had time to explore all features yet, but enough to see its potential.

I am a computer numerical control programmer with a company that produces tricone rockbits, raisebore cutters and HDD bits for the mining and construction industries.

File Search Assistant allows to cut down time spent collecting information

In my work we have to do A LOT of work with text files, and FSA has really cut down our time spent collecting information. For instance, if we need to know how many 12 1/4″ bits use a 1″ boring bar in production, we can search for all the 12 1/4″ first, then we can search inside those results for the 1″ Boring Bar. This has really had a BIG impact on our time spent researching things like this. The ability to search results from a previous search is HUGE for us.

We purchased FSA about 4 months ago, and I’ve used it every single day since we added it to our software package. As a CNC programmer, I do a ton of work with text files, and FSA has really helped me be quicker and more efficient at collecting needed information from all our programs. The ability to search the results of a previous search is HUGE for us, and has made winnowing out information a heck of a lot easier. And as good as it’s been for us so far, we’ve only just scratched the surface of what FSA is capable of. It has a ton of great features that anyone who deals with text files every day will love. It’s a great tool that doesn’t break the bank.
