Product Compare

Hawksearch can support the compare feature on the site. The compare feature is typically used to compare two results on a page.

Business Requirements

The compare feature is used to enable the process of making buying decisions for the consumer. It allows the website user review and compare products by various attributes and decide the product they would like to purchase.

Comparison can be based on attributes that a merchandiser selects in the Hawksearch dashboard.
