AnaSpec Introduces Improved Website Search Tool

October 7, 2007 – San Jose, CA - In response to customer feedback, AnaSpec has introduced Smart Search, an optimized site search engine for locating items in AnaSpec’s expansive collection of products. Powered by Nextopia, AnaSpec's Smart Search provides a faster, smarter, and more comprehensive search experience for AnaSpec customers.

Faster
Previously, all search queries shared processing power with AnaSpec’s website server. Hosted on its own separate server, searches performed on the new Smart Search engine return results faster. Search results are limited to 20 per page which further speeds up the search process.

Smarter
The previous search engine returned a list of all results that matched the search word without any refinement options. Now users have the ability to narrow their searches by Product Line and Category, as well as sort results by Relevance or Name. The ability to customize one’s search provides our users with much more control in finding the specific product they are searching for.

More Comprehensive
Where the previous search tool was limited in the type of data that it searched, the new Smart Search interface automatically searches all data fields. Matches on name, peptide sequence (1 or 3-letter code), CAS#, catalog#, and more, are all included in the search.
