Ineffective avid search engine problems

Asked By Cohen Allen 10 points N/A Posted on - 09/04/2012

Avid doesn't have a "did you mean" type of function like google does. So, I have to enter the exact names to get what you want. I put in the exact names as well but the search engine comes up empty. The problem is when I tediously look through the list to find what I am looking for, it exists, but when I search it again it doesn't show up.

Ineffective avid search engine problems

 

If you are noticing inconsistencies with the search engine you are using then transfer to a different search engine to make your searching options more effective. Online search engines are free to use. This only helps you and any other online users to easily find what you are looking for on the web using plain texts or keywords. The keywords you used on the search tab will then be queried on their indexing database and will then display the result that matches your categories.

Web search engines use different techniques and the results from one search engine may differ from the other search engine. You can’t blame them since this is a free online tool. If you are not satisfied then you are free to choose other search engines that might satisfy your needs.
