Executive Summary

Calling Entopia's K-Bus search a "platform" is a bit of a misnomer, given that the product's strong leaning toward search for collaboration and knowledge management purposes. The product is not currently perceived as a platform for developing search-driven applications beyond this base and has relatively limited market presence. However, Entopia has several highly distinctive capabilities — including implicit ranking techniques like frequency of documents accessed and recent documents accessed — that it uses to drive improved search relevance for end users. Entopia's biggest weakness is that it lacks a broad platform strategy, making K-Bus relevant to only a narrow set of uses.
