E-mail a Custom Edition Comparison Chart to a Customer Today!

Customizing our Edition Comparison Chart is pretty darn easy, so most of your customers will probably be able to figure it out on their own. But if you just finished speaking to a customer on the phone, you can impress them right away by sending them an e-mail containing a customized link showing exactly the comparison you know they are interested in. Simply cut and paste one of the examples from the list below into your e-mail (or specify your own parameters from scratch).

Overview of the Web Link Parameters

To simply go to the web page containing the Edition Comparison Chart, you just type in a link to the page:
     www.seagullscientific.com/aspx/features.aspx

However, to preconfigure the chart to show a particular type of comparison (as shown in the examples below), you also need to add two parameters after this main link.

• The mode parameter determines which of the three possible radio buttons will be selected. (The available options are 1, 2 or 3.)
• The editions parameter determines which of the five editions will have their associated bullet columns displayed. (You specify a 5-digit number containing only ones and zeros in order display and/or hide any combination of edition column information.)

In addition, including the #chart parameter at the very end of the URL link instructs the browser to scroll to the beginning of the appropriate section. (Without this, the web page would start out displaying from the very top of the page, which would require your customer to manually scroll down to where the chart is located.)

Sample Web Links

Although there are 96 different possible ways to display the information on the Edition Comparison Chart, we show only a few of the more obvious examples here. (You can click on any of these links right now to see how the contents of the target web page changes in response to the different parameters.)

To display only the differences between the Enterprise Print Server and Enterprise editions:
    www.seagullscientific.com/aspx/features.aspx?mode=3&editions=10100#chart_intro

To hide those features that are not available in either Pro or Basic:
    www.seagullscientific.com/aspx/features.aspx?mode=2&editions=00011#chart_intro

To show the features in the three Enterprise editions:
    www.seagullscientific.com/aspx/features.aspx?mode=2&editions=11100#chart_intro

To show only the differences between the three Enterprise editions:
    www.seagullscientific.com/aspx/features.aspx?mode=3&editions=11100#chart_intro

To show only the differences between the Enterprise and Professional editions:
    www.seagullscientific.com/aspx/features.aspx?mode=3&editions=00110#chart_intro

Going to the Editions Comparison Chart web page without specifying any parameters causes all features from all editions to be displayed. However, you can also specify this explicitly using the parameters as follows:
    www.seagullscientific.com/aspx/features.aspx?mode=1&editions=11111#chart_intro

Have fun!
