Looking for a good open source document management system with full text indexing

Hi Team,

I have spent most of the past days looking for an open source document management system that can do full text indexing (particularly of MS office documents).

I have downloaded the community edition of LogicalDoc but after playing with it the past 12 hours, I wasn't quite happy with its indexing features.

Short of me having to download and install and test many other DMSes out there, i am curious to know this Forum's experience...i.e. technical users who have good technical feedback instead of me just google searching "best open source Document Management System" which i have done and I just got lots of *mostly* marketing material.

Which product have you guys used and anything you can recommend?

Thanks and regards,

Hi Joe,

Thanks very much for your lengthy evaluation above. In the past several days, our head office has mandated us to use the same system they are....which is Microsoft Share Point. It is not exactly what our team had in mind, and I would have very much preferred an open source solution, but that's how things are.

I have been reading about alfresco and looks quite interesting. I will try to read up more on it, for future evaluation.

Thanks and regards.

You're welcome. Good luck with your SharePoint project! Regards, Joe
