I have been doing a lot of research on product comparison tables for a project I am working on. I posted on my personal site a series of resources and conclusions that I found along the way. The post is called Research: Product Comparison and Pricing Tables. Some of the things that I identified is the need for personals, some kind of technical requirements, competitive analysis, and defined business goals. Which, of course all ended up circling back to finding the sweet spot.

Found this article while browsing your archives. Very interesting to me right now as I’m trying to figure out how to do comparison tables. The article at nickfinck is a very useful resource and I found one statement in your conclusion telling - ‘every type of product is different, some can be compared with a short list of attributes while others require a much more detailed comparison and in some cases actually showing technical specification data as a metric of comparison’. This was the conclusion I have been coming to - there really is no one size fits all solution to this.
Product comparison serves as the most important part in every project’s success. You did the right thing that you focused on that part. So how’s the result of your project? Did everything go well?
