A shortlist is a saved comparison: two to four vendors of one type. It belongs to your organization, so your colleagues see the same shortlists you do.
Save a shortlist
- Pick vendors with Add to compare and open the comparison. See Compare vendors.
- Under Save this comparison, change the Shortlist name if you like.
- Choose Save shortlist.
If you aren't signed in, choose Sign in to save or Create an account. You come straight back to the same comparison afterwards.
Shortlists are for Sponsor organizations. If you haven't set up your company account yet, you're asked to do that first. See Organizations.
Find your shortlists
Open Shortlists in your account. Each one shows its name, vendor type, who saved it and when, and its vendors.
- Open shows the shortlist as a comparison again, with the vendors' current information.
- Rename changes its name for everyone.
- Delete removes it for everyone in your organization. You're asked to confirm first.
Anyone in your organization can save, rename and delete shortlists.
When a vendor is no longer listed
If a vendor is no longer published under the shortlist's type, it stays on the shortlist marked "(no longer listed)". When you open the shortlist, it's left out of the comparison and a notice says so.
Who can see a shortlist
Only people in your organization. Vendors never see your shortlists, their names or who saved them. A vendor sees only totals of how many times it was saved to shortlists. See What vendors can see about you.
