"The system performed quite well on my test queries; for example, "What are the current financials for Parker Hannifin?" returned two results with the data I wanted. I will try to get Mr. Schiettecatte to participate in the Search Wizards Speak interview series. Give the system a whirl."

This year we also want to mention a newcomer in search, MyRoar. Formed by technical folks who understand the financial services market, MyRoar is a natural language question machine. They claim that their technology does not need to be trained like vendors InQuira and Q-Go; we're hopeful to do more with them this year so we can report back on our findings.
