Predictive search
Make your Universal Intranet Search even more useful with suggestions, also called "autocomplete predictive search". To get started, type a search query and you'll see the first search suggestion in the search box with more queries suggested right below the search bar. All suggestions are based on an employee's search logs or content descriptive metadata and have information from Pages, Channels and People.
-
Hashtags
Hashtags are a great way to categorize content across our intranet platform and to search and find it conveniently. You can add hashtags to posts and comments that are shared in Channels and Pages to make posts searchable. Hashtags can also be used in the search bar to find related Posts, People, Channels or other information that contain the same hashtag.
-
Elasticsearch
Ever wondered how tools like an intranet are able to handle and search all kinds of data? This is where Elasticsearch comes in. Happeo uses a custom Elasticsearch cluster to index Posts, Comments, Pages, users and groups. Elasticsearch makes it possible to search and analyze big amounts of data in realtime and also enables search suggestion and autocomplete search fields.
-
Unified access to several data sources
Happeo provides unified access to several internal and external information sources from a single interface, including content from your intranet’s Channels, Pages and People. Employees can also access shared and private information from the connected Google Workspace app like documents, PDFs or photos from Google drive, Gmail and Google calendar. And it doesn’t stop there. With Happeo’s Federated Search, you can also search through various apps. That’s right, one search bar with results spanning from across different mediums and locations.
-
Advanced search features
Unified access makes it possible to leverage valuable content and deliver it to employees and by giving permissions to Channels and documents it’s easy to control who has access to information. Afraid that you can’t find the information you’re looking for? Happeo’s hashtags and advanced search features predict and autocomplete your search queries and help you find information faster and easier.
-
Semantic search
Organizations are forced to deal with a growing amount of information and it becomes increasingly hard for employees to find the information they are looking for. Semantic search focuses on analyzing and understanding the meaning of a query. It then not only shows results based on the keyword but also results that are relevant, including the ones that contain synonyms of the search term. Happeo provides this technique to show more meaningful and relevant search results.
-
Search Analytics
Besides searching for information and data, Enterprise Search is expected to help management gain actionable insights from the search data. Happeo’s Advanced Analytics feature shows exactly which keywords employees search for and what content and pages are most popular. Analytics like this can measure the effectiveness of an intranet and be of great help in making improvement to content and important business decisions.
-
Data security
Happeo makes intranet security a priority and takes several measures to implement it. As a trusted Google Cloud Partner Solution, organizations benefit from Google Cloud's technology and world-scale infrastructure. All documents and files are stored securely in Google Cloud and backed up on servers in secure data centers. Even more safety is guaranteed by controlled document access, which makes it possible to define the access rights for each document.
-
User friendliness
Happeo’s Universal Search has a simple user interface and is very easy to use, which provides an excellent user experience. Even with only partial keywords employees can find documents and people quickly. With semantic search more relevant and personalized results are provided for users.
-
Usage of categories
The autocompletion of queries completes words and phrases when users start typing and improves the user experience. What makes the search result page especially user-friendly is the usage of categories. View the search result page and click through the category taps to find your content even quicker. Categories include Pages, People, Channels, emails, posts, files, and calendars.

Use your Universal Intranet Search successfully
Show me content from platforms outside my Happeo
With Happeo’s Federated Search you can search across all your favorite apps, all from within Happeo. No matter if you’re searching for a Slack message, a file, a document in Sharepoint, all the relevant results will show up in your Happeo.
Show me the email address and calendar of our marketing director
It's sometimes hard to know who's responsible for what. Universal Search is a way for employees to find colleagues and their contact details, to connect with each other, and gain insight into a company structure. Searching for a colleague is especially easy because the whole profile card is searchable. Look for a name, email address, position, manager name or location and find your colleague-just like that.
Get me the latest version of my company's policy documents
Organizations typically use an intranet to provide access to documents and to keep employees informed and engaged. Use Happeo's Universal Search to make your company policies and procedures readily available. Allow employees to find documents quickly by simply entering a keyword, keyphrase, author, or related search term. Having easy access to policies and procedures helps employees stay up to date with business-critical information.
Show me the PDF of our marketing plan
Organizations produce content in different document types. PDFs are one of the most popular document types and it should be easy for employees to find them. Happeo's Universal Search finds unstructured data like PDFs, making it easy to manage and access them.
Show me photos of the last customer roadshow event
A social intranet isn't really social without rich media. "Remember that last company party? Let's look at the photos!" It finds photos based on keywords in a title, content or file name. With Universal Search, no company event will ever be forgotten.
Show me company updates and news from last month
By now you know that Happeo keeps employees informed through its news feed. But what if you were away for a few weeks? Universal Search makes it easy to go back and find the latest department news, team achievements or anything else you may have missed.

All you need to know about Universal Search.

What is Federated Search?

Enterprise search vs. Google search?
While both Universal Intranet Search, enterprise search and Google search are used for the purpose of searching, they are still not the same.
