FileHold Systems Inc. is the designer, and developer of FileHold document management software. The software saves companies time and money in electronic document management and helps ensure regulatory compliance. The software allows companies to implement a complete document archiving, organization and document recovery solution.



FileHold software is used in all industries, including finance, legal, medical, construction and engineering, and by government agencies of all sizes. The software supports all popular document types. It also offers a powerful workflow component, and extensive security features.

The company slogan “Document and Record Lifecycle Software” reflects the software's ability to manage documents from creation to disposal. Users can easily access the system using a standard web browser (both Internet Explorer and Mozilla Firefox are supported). It comes complete with all of the essentials customers need to manage document and record lifecycles.

For fast searching within the latest version of FileHold, the company chose the dtSearch Text Retrieval Engine. “We selected dtSearch after conducting an extensive evaluation of full text search engines to replace a search engine we had previously used,” said Larry Oliver, President, FileHold Systems.

“We found dtSearch to be a very easy company to work with,” continued Mr. Oliver. “dtSearch provided us with all of the evaluation tools we needed, and their technical department was very responsive to any requests we made. The integration of the dtSearch Engine into FileHold has given us the search performance we were seeking.”

VANCOUVER, BC and BETHESDA, MD (July 12th, 2006) - FileHold Systems Inc. is a developer of advanced document and record management software. dtSearch Corp. supplies enterprise and developer text retrieval software. Both companies announce the release of FileHold’06, including the dtSearch Engine for Win & .NET for searching document collections (scaleable to any size) in the FileHold’06 system.

FileHold’06 document management software allows corporate and government customers to create, share and collaborate electronically on documents, while maintaining tight version control, managed workflow and high-level security. The result allows companies and governments to create a secure library for critical documents and records, and manage those documents throughout their lifecycle.

FileHold’06 was designed and developed from the ground up as a result of the company’s many years in providing consulting services in the document management domain. The application is based on the Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) paradigm, allowing the software to scale to thousands of users and millions of files. The ability to search the library to find documents is an essential feature of document management software. FileHold has embedded the dtSearch Engine, for instant search and display of even the largest document collections.

The dtSearch Engine can index over a terabyte of text in a single index--as well as create and simultaneously search an unlimited number of indexes. Indexed search time is typically less than a second, even across terabytes of data. The dtSearch Engine provides over two dozen search options. After a search, the dtSearch Engine can display retrieved documents with highlighted hits. The dtSearch Engine supports distributed or federated searching across multiple data sources, and includes access to dtSearch’s built-in Web Spider.

“Using the dtSearch engine we have implemented a rich search solution that analyzes both the text and metadata of a document allowing the search results to be prioritized in a meaningful way,” said Larry Oliver, president, FileHold Systems. “The integration of the dtSearch Engine into FileHold has given us the search performance we were seeking.” “We welcome the opportunity to work with FileHold in the development of this document management system,” said David Thede, president, dtSearch Corp. “FileHold’06 sets a new benchmark in document and record management handling,” said Ron Crawford, president, RCC Consulting, Canadian distributor of dtSearch products. “After a thorough evaluation of text retrieval software, the company chose dtSearch as the best full-text search engine to integrate with their application. FileHold has been an excellent company to work with.”
