To facilitate easier and faster purchases, brands and retailers can offer product comparison on their website. To enable product comparisons, retailers need comprehensive product data with comparable attributes configured to display on the site for comparison (e.g., a comparison of televisions might include dimensions, the number and type of ports, image quality, customer ratings, and whether it offers power-saving features).
