Comparison: see up to three products side by side

Shoppers often weigh up two or three options before committing. Until now, that meant flicking between product pages, asking a colleague, or reaching for a phone to do the maths. Comparison brings that decision onto one screen at the Cloudshelf kiosk, with the information shoppers actually want to see.

How Comparison works

On any Cloudshelf interactive solution, a shopper can select up to three products and open them in a side by side view. Specs, prices, and key product details line up in clear columns, so the differences are easy to spot at a glance. The shopper controls the comparison, adding or swapping products as they refine their shortlist.

Because the comparison pulls directly from the same catalogue powering your digital kiosks, the information stays accurate. Stock status, pricing, and product attributes match what is live in your Cloudshelf Manager, with no manual upkeep required.

Why this matters

A confident decision is a faster decision. When shoppers can see the relevant details together, they spend less time second guessing and more time choosing. For retailers, that means fewer abandoned journeys at the kiosk and less pressure on store colleagues to answer the same comparison questions over and over.

Comparison also extends what the endless aisle is for. The kiosk stops being a long catalogue to scroll through, and starts to behave like a decision tool. Shoppers reach a clear answer in store, which supports both the sale on the day and the wider perception of the brand.

How to set it up

Comparison is available on all Cloudshelf displays. Open the relevant Cloudshelf in Cloudshelf Manager, switch on Comparison in the feature settings, select your comparison fields, and you're ready to go! The compare icon will appear on each and every product across your kiosks, ready for shoppers to use.
