The rise of smart phones and tablets is an unprecedented opportunity for enterprise search to escape traditional limits and become the single best way to access all enterprise information.

New features enabled by mobile devices include geo-location, still image and video input, voice search and unprecedented personalization.

Lessons from ecommerce and other consumer-oriented mobile designs will provide practical strategies on managing the high-risk mobile search investment and growing the scope of enterprise search offerings.
