In 2021, Leeco launched Leeco Pro, an online buying and order management platform. As the project manager of that initiative, I was honored and excited to bring this new, powerful tool to our customers.

In addition to its second anniversary, Leeco Pro had much to celebrate this June. I wanted to share with you some of the recent enhancements we made to Leeco Pro and discuss how they will make sourcing steel plate online even simpler and faster.

Improved Product Search

Based on feedback from current Leeco Pro users, we made several visual and technical changes to our product search. I’m confident that these changes will make using Leeco Pro easier and more efficient.

Filter By Grades

We improved our grades filter to allow users to select multiple ready-to-ship steel plate grades. Previously, users could only browse material one grade at a time, so this greatly improves the search experience.

Refine By Size

Users have always been able to refine and narrow their product search to their desired material thickness, length and/or width.

An exciting enhancement to this feature, customers can now select multiple options of each criteria if there is flexibility in material size. This also improves the search experience and was a top-requested improvement.

Toggle to Your Favorites

Our popular “favorites” feature allowed customers to save and view frequently-ordered grades, making it easy to place re-orders. We made this feature more accessible and prominent in our June update, so users can easily jump to favorited grades in just one click.

Sort Results by Size

Lastly, we updated our product column headers to allow customers to sort search results by thickness, width and/or length, making it faster to find your required material sizes.

What’s Next for Leeco Pro?

While improving product search functionality was our most recent focus for Leeco Pro, we are continuously gathering user feedback and seeking ways to improve online steel procurement. We have many exciting developments in the works, and I look forward to sharing them with you in the future.

If you are not currently a Leeco Pro user and are interested in registering for the platform, please reach out to your sales representative or request a demo here. You can learn more about Leeco Pro’s other time-saving benefits here.
