"The expertise and the level of service provided by prMac is simply indispensable for me. The writing services are impeccable and I doubt if the press release process can be made any simpler. For independent Mac software developers, this service is a like a bottle of refreshing spring water after a long run."

DEVONsphere Express makes the Mac smarter
February 20, 2012 in Software
[prMac.com] Coeur d'Alene, Idaho - DEVONtechnologies, LLC today is pleased to announce the release of DEVONsphere Express, a brand new application that makes Mac users more productive by finding the hidden relationships between files, webpages, and more.
DEVONtechnologies starts 2012 with a new product line all about searching the computer, intranets, and the web: DEVONsphere. DEVONsphere Express adds smart search technology to the Mac. DEVONsphere Server (see separate press release) is a server application that indexes documents and websites and makes them searchable through a highly configurable web interface.
DEVONsphere Express changes the way one works with documents on the Mac. It constantly focuses on whatever the user is working on and provides them with related items: documents with similar content, emails and messages from the same contact, songs from the same artist, and so on. For the current webpage in Safari and most other modern browsers, DEVONsphere Express also shows other related webpages (e.g. more mango chutney recipes, other shops selling similar clothing) as well as local items.
DEVONsphere Express shows related documents and data when a file is selected in the Finder, when it receives text from other applications via the Services menu, and when files are selected in the Finder. The user can directly preview all results directly in the popover or via Quick Look, open them in other apps, and add web results to Safari's reading list.
In addition, DEVONsphere Express is also a powerful tool for searching the Mac. It supports advanced Boolean operators, wildcards, ranges of characters, and parentheses to find anything the user has allowed it to index: from documents and email messages to contacts, bookmarks, images, songs, movies, programming code, and items in DEVONthink Pro databases (both currently open ones as well as ones indexed by Spotlight).
DEVONsphere Express runs as a menu extra showing all results in a menu-like pop-over window which can be also torn off and placed anywhere on the screen as a panel. A user-defined hot key makes it comfortable to quickly access DEVONsphere Express' pop-over from the keyboard, and easy-to-understand preferences allow to tailor it to the user's very needs.
"Whatever you're doing at your Mac, DEVONsphere Express gives you more input when you need it. No longer search for related stuff, it's already there for you. And if you really need to find that needle in the haystack, DEVONsphere Express will find it, too. But no worries that it's complicated to use or to configure: its carefully designed, minimalistic user interface hides what you don't need until you do," says Eric Bohnisch-Volkmann, President of DEVONtechnologies.
Pricing and Availability:
DEVONsphere Express 1.1 requires OS X 10.6.6 or later and 2 GB of RAM. It is immediately available on the Mac App Store for an introductory price of $4.99 USD (until end of March 2012). Customers find more information about our apps on the DEVONtechnologies website.
