With Microsoft Search in Bing you get search results both from the web and from your organization—in any browser and on any device.

Your browser does not support video. Install Microsoft Silverlight, Adobe Flash Player, or Internet Explorer 9.

In addition to web results, you can find work or school results, including:

  • People

  • Files

  • SharePoint and other internal sites

  • Links to internal resources and tools

  • Conversations

  • Acronyms

  • Groups

  • Office and campus locations

  • Floor plans

  • Classes and assignments (school users only)

You don't need to learn special terms or commands. Bing understands common words and tries to understand what you really want to find. Just ask naturally.

Quickly find people you collaborate with:  Microsoft Search in Bing easily understands searches like 'my manager,' 'my teacher,' or 'Gail Tanner'. You don’t have to enter a specific name to find the person you’re looking for, or even spell it right.

See more with the expanded view: For searches with relevant results, you'll get the top result for it along with a link to a work or school page where you can see more.

Get search suggestions: To help you quickly find answers, people, and building locations, Microsoft Search in Bing search suggestions appear under the search box or address bar. Just start typing the name of the person, place, or thing and you'll see relevant suggestions appear in the list. Suggestions include an icon to make them easier to identify.
