Extech Instruments was awarded top honors in a roundup of 18 websites of top handheld test and measurement manufacturers, scoring a 98% rating and a "best" rating in 7 out of 9 categories.
The ratings are featured in the WebReviews section of the February 2009 issue of Industrial Equipment News.
Editors gave Extech "best" ratings in categories such as registration friendliness, ease of use and navigation, general product information, engineering and technical content, downloads and knowledgebase, engineering tools, as well as support.
IEN WebReviews stated, "Don't let the simple, easy-to-use homepage deceive you-someone has put a lot of thought, planning, effort into this site and in doing so, makes it look deceptively easy."
Product pages were lauded for "to-the-point, bulleted features and benefits along with PDF datasheets, links to supplies and accessories and related details, user manuals, distributor stock status, videos, and distributor locator."
IEN editors were also surprised by Extech's extensive, registration-optional, open software area and "truly useful FAQs."
