Think Again: Website redesigns can cause user discomfort, but you’ll like the new Control Engineering website in five major ways.

The world changes quickly, and there’s some measure of comfort in things that don’t change too often. Without disrupting the same high-quality Control Engineering content, we’ve adjusted the look, navigation, and other features at www.controleng.com to better serve subscribers and visitors. The new website should make it easier for engineers to find and access educational information that will help them better perform in their jobs.
Control Engineering developers and content and production specialists are targeting a December migration to a new web platform, which will include:
1. More logically organized content in page design, navigation bars (top and bottom), and nested topics to display articles and other favorites, such as webcasts, research, New Products for Engineers, Global System Integrator Database, Digital Reports, and CFE Edu online training courses.
2. More convenient mobile access with automated content adjustment (using HTML5) appropriate to screen size of the device used.
3. Better search engine: Faster finding with less looking results from better search tools applied to our vast well of content. Results can be sorted by author, content, topics, types, with most recent results first.
Search results are better at the newly redesigned Control Engineering site, www.controleng.com.

4. Faster loading pages: Content is optimized to facilitate faster loading of content from our servers to your devices.
5. Integrated access: Multiple content types can be displayed on the home page (and will be more easily identified, with appreciated print-like conventions).
We regularly think again about how to serve you better. Let me know how we’ve done. (With this new platform, we also can more easily make adjustments to suit your needs.)
