• Seamless integration into the Magento site display with no API programming for rapid implementation and easy change.
• A dynamic navigation plug-in that supports the selection of multiple attributes for faster navigation to products by visitors.
• Support for "derived attributes" that allow you to create new categories and attributes from existing product information without the time and cost of restructuring your Magento catalog.
• An easy to use merchandising studio that allows merchandisers to define and rollout promotions as well as make changes to the search experience without IT support, speeding time to market and reducing IT costs.
• Full internationalization and localization which enables the simultaneous rollout of search, navigation and merchandising on sites in different languages and countries including English, German, French, Dutch, Italian, Spanish & Portuguese.
In addition, EasyAsk enhances the performance of Magento sites through high-speed indexing and more efficient servers, delivering a better customer experience while reducing costs. By offloading the search and navigation load to EasyAsk, customers report seeing a marked improvement in the performance of their Magento sites.
The EasyAsk Magento Connector is available for free to customers using the Magento e-commerce platform.
"Through our free EasyAsk Connector for Magento, we can implement far superior search, navigation and merchandising in as little as three weeks," said Simon Persse, Vice President of International Sales, EasyAsk. "Upgrading to EasyAsk provides significant benefits in terms of functionality and search accuracy, which leads to a better user experience and higher customer conversion.”
EasyAsk is the only third-party e-commerce search and merchandising solution that can be deployed on-site or in a Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) model. This provides the ultimate flexibility for Magento customers who can deploy an EasyAsk solution on-site near their Magento server(s) for first hand control or off-load the IT costs by deploying in EasyAsk's reliable, secure SaaS environment.
EasyAsk will be demonstrating this functionality at the Internet Retailing Expo in Birmingham (Stand A37), United Kingdom on March 26 and 27, 2014.
