Parametric search is used to search for items by their properties, e.g. searching for books by author, electronic components by voltage or real estate by square footage.

Using parametric search, customers can select a few key product attributes, such as an office desk with an 11 square-foot desktop and a two-drawer pedestal, and quickly obtain a list of compatible products.

Among CustomCommerce's selection tools, parametric search is particularly valuable for knowledgeable customers who can set filters based on a range of values to find the products that best meet their needs.
