The product comparison function complements the parametric search and sales
assistant. At any point within the intelligent catalog, the buyer can decide to compare the
products meeting criteria specified from the search process.
The Advance Catalog Tools customize each mode of shopping. For product exploration,
the tool is used to select the attributes for the search criteria. This tool lets attributes vary
by category, allowing for additional features to be searched at sub-category levels. The
sales assistance tool is used to easily create a question and answer hierarchy. Each
answer refines the search and its association to selected product specifications.
All of the tools are easy to use, and do not require any programming or HTML knowledge.
The format and look-and-feel for all of the intelligent search methods can be customized
and tailored to fit the design criteria of the catalog. The shopping metaphors can also be
tailored to specific shopper or buying groups.
