Goodbye Vendor Search, Hello Vendor Directory

April 9, 2025 - Reading time: 2 minutes

We’re officially retiring the legacy Vendor Search module on the Flow Platform. In its place, we’re introducing a completely reimagined experience: the Vendor Directory - built to give you deeper insight, faster access, and more flexibility when working with your vendor network. The new module is a major leap forward, offering extended functionality, smarter search, and an intuitive, personalized interface.

The Advanced Vendor Search module lets you quickly find vendors using multiple filters, including:

  • Language pairs

  • ZIP code, city, state, and country

  • Compliance profiles

  • Name or phone number

  • Branch assignment

  • Third-party platform ID (e.g., CRMs or ERPs)

Each result is now easier to interpret and navigate, thanks to a modern layout that adapts to user roles and workflows. As with everything in the Flow Platform, the interface is fully customizable, allowing teams to adjust fields, filters, and display preferences based on their day-to-day needs.

Location-Based Search with Interactive Maps

One of the most exciting additions is the new interactive map view. Simply select a region, and instantly view a list of vendors based on their location. This makes it easier than ever to:

  • Find local professionals for on-site services

  • Assess coverage gaps by geography

  • Plan regional recruitment or scheduling efforts

Designed for Speed and Scale

The updated module is also optimized for performance—handling large vendor lists with ease, while delivering faster search results and more responsive interactions.
