Elastic Acquires SaaS Site Search Leader Swiftype
(Thomson Reuters ONE) -
Swiftype's Site Search and Enterprise Search products further extend Elastic's
vision to offer tailored solutions on top of the Elastic Stack
MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif. and AMSTERDAM, The Netherlands, Nov. 09, 2017 (GLOBE
NEWSWIRE) -- Elastic, the company behind Elasticsearch, and the Elastic Stack,
the most widely-used collection of open source products for solving mission-
critical use cases like search, logging, and analytics, today announced that it
has acquired Swiftype, a San Francisco-based startup founded in 2012 and backed
by Y Combinator and New Enterprise Associates (NEA). Swiftype is the creator of
the popular SaaS-based Site Search and the recently introduced Enterprise Search
products.
Swiftype is an early adopter of Elasticsearch, using Elasticsearch to index and
store searchable content and power the search experience for its Site Search
product. Used by more than 900 organizations including Asana, AT&T, Dr. Pepper,
Engadget, Hubspot, Marketo, Shopify, SurveyMonkey, and TechCrunch, Site Search
offers users the ability to create customized search experiences; a user
interface to configure advanced features, such as relevance, autocomplete,
faceted search, and custom result ranking; and real-time analytics, reports, and
dashboards. Effective immediately, Swiftype's Site Search product will be
offered with a new introductory subscription plan starting at $79/month that
allows customers to grow at their own pace. In addition, Site Search provides a
straightforward migration path for Google Site Search (GSS) customers.
Released earlier this year, Swiftype's Enterprise Search product helps
organizations manage content across disparate data sources and seamlessly
connect to cloud-based applications like Atlassian, Box, Dropbox, Github, Google
Apps, Microsoft Outlook, Salesforce, Slack, Zendesk, and more. Effectively
immediately, Enterprise Search will be moved to beta and available for trial
upon request. The combined Elastic and Swiftype engineering teams will integrate
more capabilities of the Elastic Stack and X-Pack into Enterprise Search and
will make it available as both as a hosted service and on-premise solution.
"We've long invested in Elasticsearch to help power the Swiftype platform, given
its superior technology for building real-time and scalable search solutions,"
said Matt Riley, Swiftype Co-Founder and CEO. "Joining forces with the Elastic
team and merging our collective best-in-class solutions will drive success for
customers, making way for natural opportunities for new and improved products
and solutions."
"Swiftype has built an amazing company and a rich set of SaaS products
leveraging the power of Elasticsearch as a generic search engine," said Shay
Banon, Elastic Founder and CEO. "By joining forces with Swiftype, our customers
will be able to address their simple website or application search needs, and in
the future, more complex enterprise search use cases with a highly tailored and
curated SaaS or on-premise experience."
