Some Value Add Differentiators:
- BI's Endeca-aware URL Rewriter Tool: The URL rewriter allows the client's new Endeca-powered site to retain its old-style URLs or design a new URL scheme resulting in better search engine optimization and more user-friendly URLs.
- Endeca's relevance ranking algorithms are best-of-industry and will let you fine tune the order and relevance of product results returned by your users search. However, this fine-tuning process may be somewhat technical for your business users, so Business Innovation has developed a Web-based tool to allow business users to enter multiple relevance strategies and searches and see in what order the respective results are returned.
- Pre-written .NET Endeca code: .NET UI code make typical Endeca API development quicker. All the standard UI elements are ready to drag & drop onto the client's application including left nav, breadcrumbs, search results, and merchandizing zones.
