The Confrontation of Two Giants In Field of Consumers' Opinions
Nowadays I'll be starting a sequence of articles matching how a new site called PissedConsumer.com developed by and for customers' stacks up against the industry veteran Consumer Reports. So what will be the characteristic which may bring victory to one of these websites?
The primary test is quite simple and you can perform it by yourself: simply load those websites at the same time. If we compare the looks we will see that Consumer Reports has got a bit plainer but more professional interface. The site features a simple but clear design using grey, white, blue, and a light tone of red. There are many links, images, and a scrolling window with the most popular stories framing the face. The appearance of Pissed Consumer is also pleasant as it is composed with light red and white hues. Anyway, Consumer Reports looks considerably more professional as Pissed Consumer does. Such feeling is a consequence of many various advertisements located on every chapter of the site. The page that includes a lot of links and no images is always harder to browse and your eyes should be always strained to look for the needed information. The site does contain two particularly helpful sections. The first is a recently discussed bar that shows you the articles or complaints with the newest comments to them. “Hot topics” are displayed by the second section. They are expressed just in one word hyperlink. I just wanted the font of the hot topics section was bigger so it would be easier to distinguish the words.
For the customer that visits Consumer Reports at the first time it is actually simply to find some required topics as they are strictly divided into several main themes. For the fans of Consumer Reports Magazine there is a section of the website where they can debate any articles read in this magazine. The website of the Pissed Consumer also has quite interesting structure but it is harder to utilize. The main page contains the most recently posted complaints and articles which can be a little confusing to a first time visitor. The right side does contain a basic list of categories but they are broad without an ability to make them more specific. Luckily, both resources do feature a comfortable search option if you can't seek what you're looking for on the front page. There is an opinion that Consumer Reports comprises significantly bigger quantity of information but it is not right, actually. Pissed Consumer doesn't provide a proper menus that is why it seems to be less useful, but it really can brag of lots of unique and truly useful information.
Overall, while both websites cover the identical range of matters, it seems that Consumer Reports is the site with better ease of use and arrangement. So, it wouldn't take much time to gain the information you are interested in. This feature involves lots of clients. I would rather announce that Pissed Consumer has got a bit more drawbacks that gives a chance to Consumer Reports to be the best.
