Apptus, Europe's leading developer of search and content enrichment services for online directories, today announced that they will offer all users of the FAST Enterprise Search Platform to replace it with their own platform Theca at no cost for licenses. The announcement was made as a response to the spring news that FAST's present owner Microsoft will abandon all further Unix and Linux platform support for FAST.

"It seems that Microsoft wants to focus on enterprise search and integrate FAST with their own platform. A move that will make it difficult for online directories and digital marketers who needs the benefits of a combination between deeper content and better search." says Michael Mokhberi, CEO at Apptus.

Apptus will now offer companies using FAST a safe passage to their own platform Theca, which today is used by many of the major online directories in Europe. At no cost, Apptus will analyse the companies present search situation and the online directory’s specific needs.

"We offer all online directory companies a safe passage to our leading and stable platform without any additional license costs. We have been in the market for over 10 years and have obtained a leading position in Europe with our cutting edge technology in search and content enrichment. This means that we have a long term commitment and will continue to develop our products based on our customers needs, rather than our own.” says Michael Mokhberi.
