Similar in scope to the overhaul of a tractor, John Deere has completely overhauled and redesigned its MachineFinder.com website. It is now easier than ever for customers to find and review pre-owned equipment…including precision agriculture technology.

“MachineFinder not only provides improved user interfaces, but new functionality that will better assist customers in acquiring used equipment from John Deere dealers,” says Michael Gause, division manager of John Deere Remarketing Services.

The redesigned MachineFinder includes features such as Google Maps to view equipment location and obtain one-step driving directions, detailed gallery views for higher quality equipment photos and comprehensive equipment information. The site offers more accurate browse-and-search functionality, which improves the overall usability goals for the MachineFinder website.

Several other new features round out the improved functionality of the site. One feature is integration with uShip.com (www.uship.com), an online shipping marketplace with a network of specialized tractor and heavy equipment haulers. The uShip integration on MachineFinder provides customers with the ability to obtain immediate shipping cost estimates and receive competitive bids for transporting equipment purchased through MachineFinder.

If you register a profile, you can save selected equipment, searches and user settings. Plus you’ll also find news and blogs, plus a connection to John Deere Credit to check out financing options.
