Spec Simple, creator of the industry’s original Virtual Library, launches a redesigned platform. The new Virtual Library marries the power of Spec Simple’s information tools with sophisticated design, resulting in an unmatched experience that makes finding product and project information simple and elegant. “Designers who seek great design and powerful simplicity in their information tools, will thrive using Spec Simple’s re-designed Virtual Library,” says Suzanne Swift, Spec Simple’s president.
In addition to a new intelligent design, Virtual Library launches several ground breaking features designed to help specifiers get work done quickly:
Virtual Library’s new “Ask my Reps” allows specifiers to pose product questions to multiple vendors at once, soliciting quick answers to urgent product queries. Need to match a stone from a quarry in Pakistan? “Ask my Reps” queries a designer’s preferred vendor grouping. Answers stream in immediately.
For designers better at recognizing their representatives’ faces than remembering their names, Virtual Library created the new “Rep Faces,” allowing designers to quickly find familiar contacts visually.
To help designers who often spend too much valuable time assembling product specification pages on unwieldy programs, Spec Simple’s Virtual Library now generates customized reporting with just a click. Virtual Library streamlines the reporting process by allowing specifiers to drop in only the information they need, then generate essential reports (i.e. Spec Pages, Budget Sheets, Project Listings and Product Comparisons). Designers can personalize their reports by selecting a favorite font or layout, uploading a client logo and more.
And finally, Spec Simple re-launches its free site, SpecSimple.com, giving industry professionals access to powerful time saving features previously available only to Virtual Library subscribers.
