The ProCompare recommendation process works as follows:
Vendors of SMB software, hardware and online IT services use flexible feeding methods
to enter their product information into the ProCompare database.
IT professionals and experts review and rate products with which they are experienced.
Ratings are based on several key criteria, such as ease of use, reliability and performance.
The review’s optional textual component allows professionals and experts to articulate
their informed opinions.
Shoppers search by product category and get instant recommendations based on weighted
community ratings. Thanks to ProCompare’s unique engine, shoppers can personalize the
recommendations further by adjusting the relative importance given to each product criteria.
They can also refine the search through various filters, such as by brand or price range.
Shoppers can view additional product specifications, reviews, and where to buy,
as well as comparisons with other relevant products.
