A Top Custom Development Provider for dtSearch® Engine Clients, Contegra Releases a New Version of its KaleidoSearch™ Application Embedding the dtSearch Engine

Contegra works with Fortune 500 and other dtSearch developer customers to tailor instant concurrent search implementations across terabytes of online and offline data

BETHESDA, Md. and WHITE PLAINS, N.Y., April 15, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- dtSearch is a leader in enterprise and developer text retrieval software and document filters. Contegra Systems is a long-time provider of custom development services for the dtSearch Engine developer market, working with customers ranging from small businesses to Fortune 500 corporations as well as non-profits and government entities. Contegra's new KaleidoSearch upgrade embedding the dtSearch Engine adds more user interface layout options to ease document review when a search returns a very long list of matching files. The upgrade also seamlessly integrates with Contegra's recent server-side PDF hit-highlighting release.

dtSearch's core product for developers, the dtSearch Engine, has over 25 full-text and metadata instant concurrent search options including special forensics-oriented features and extensive international language support. dtSearch's proprietary document filters work with online and offline data spanning popular "Office" formats, website data, databases, compression formats and emails with attachments. With 64-bit versions for Windows, Linux and macOS (including 64-bit Intel for Windows and Linux as well as 64-bit ARM for Windows and Apple Silicon ARM), the dtSearch Engine SDK can run on-premises or in a cloud environment such as Azure or AWS.

Contegra developed the KaleidoSearch interface after years of custom development experience for dtSearch Engine clients. The initial release focused on user-friendly faceted search implementation. Contegra subsequently added new display options and expanded file tagging and file download capabilities as well as adding Active Directory support, a word wheel and enhanced query builder options. A prominent litigation practice was the impetus behind this most recent release. "The litigation practice needed to streamline their document review when a search request returned thousands of files. The new interface saves review time and reduces screen fatigue resulting in much greater efficiency," said Rob Wiesenberg, President, Contegra Systems.

The KaleidoSearch upgrade also seamlessly integrates Contegra's updated server-side solution for highlighting search result hits in PDF documents. "Our PDF highlighter offers a simple and efficient way to highlight search result hits in PDF documents without the need for end-users to run specific PDF review software, added Mr. Wiesenberg. "The PDF highlighter can work with KaleidoSearch or independently with other dtSearch developer products."

In addition to its enterprise products, dtSearch offers developer solutions including multiplatform APIs. dtSearch does not, however, do custom development work. "The Contegra team has undertaken many high-level custom development projects for our dtSearch Engine customer base," said David Thede, President, dtSearch. "We've seen even companies with substantial in-house development teams achieve major benefits from working with Contegra because of Contegra's specialized search design expertise." (dtSearch suggests third-party development providers solely as a courtesy to its customers. dtSearch does not assume any liability or warranty for such recommendations, and does not accept commissions or other fees on such referrals.)
