Sweet, thanks for the feedback. CTO is constantly tweaking the search so we can make it as "free form" as possible. We're trying to get away from "filter drop down" hell

Check out Elasticsearch as a search index. It does a pretty good job of full text searches, and it's free. I use it for a lot of my projects, and I think it's one of the better ones out there. Let me know if I can help! Good luck!

Yup, we use ES and love it! Thanks for the offering, I'll let philipDS know if he hits any stumbling blocks to get in touch.
