"Compared to our previous federated system, which demanded a lot of staff time to configure and customize the interface, WebFeat is a breath of fresh air. Not only is it easy to set up but WebFeat is easy for our users to search. The interface is intuitive and provides quick access to the native interface. In addition, maintaining our WebFeat system does not require a lot of staff time."

We were especially impressed that WebFeat had our customized system up and running in about 30 days. Despite the short implementation time frame, WebFeat met or exceeded all of our needs.

"We are thrilled with the WebFeat solution. Our library recognized the benefits of Google-like searching--ease of use, always present access, and fast results--but we needed to find a scholarly solution. Given the vast amount of unique databases offered by Pitt libraries, we didn't think we would ever find one tool that would be compatible with all of our databases, be able to handle simultaneous searching of so many resources and return quality results with such a fast response time. WebFeat has far exceeded our expectations of what a search system could be."
