As an editor, I’ve sampled a lot of product configurators over the years, but have never actually used any to purchase anything. I can play with these configuration tools but never get to the final “ready-to-purchase” point. Usually, because I’m just looking at how the tool works, I don’t get to see the full benefits of most configurators.
That’s why I was so impressed with Cicoil’s Custom Flat Cable Configurator. It’s one of the most simple and straightforward tools I’ve seen. Users simply drag and drop what types of cable elements they require and the cable is built before their eyes. And what’s more, the price is given up front before you even get to the order page. Once you submit your contact details, a finished drawing and final price quote is sent to your email.
Users can select from power, signal, video and tubing, as well as what type of jacket elements and modules they require. The selections are simple, such as 24 or 22 AWG twisted or untwisted, shielded or unshielded power cables, or cat5e or camera link signal group modules. More than 200 million potential cable configurations can be built with the tool. Once you order your custom cable, it will be manufactured and shipped within two weeks.
I wish shopping online for everything could be that easy. Sometimes, we’re bogged down with way too many choices. This simple drag-and-drop tool gets to the point right away. You want to order a cable and know how much it costs. Done. Check it out today.
Drag and Drop User Interfaces are the wave of the future with product configurators. Our company KBMax builds them for more complex industrial products like material handling and pharmaceutical sampling.
