Build your modern intranet with SharePoint in Office 365 – Microsoft Ignite 2018 announcements
@Mark Kashman @Wicus van den Berg
I have enrolled Cloud2 in Microsoft Search and have been trying it out today. It's great as far as it goes, but it still completely misses the point Wicus and I keep making, which is that Modern Search needs to respect and leverage the enterprise information architecture (so Content Types and site wide metadata. Without that it's just a better Google, rather than a clever SharePoint/O365 solution, and not suitable for enterprise use. It don;t see this need on the roadmap (though I could have missed it - still a bit jet lagged)
Our current approach is to use Modern Search at the team site and occasionally the Hub site level, but to revert to a customised classic search for all global (home page) search until this issue is adequately addressed. Clients can't understand why it isn't there already.
Nice meeting you both briefly last week btw.
