Further, it is highly scalable and there is no limit to the number of products that can be sorted or categorized by any sub-module of Advance Shop By.

On the actual Magento web store, Advance Shop By is transparent as an extension and gels into the categorized layout of any retail e-store. There is a tabbed layout that sorts products by ten different criteria—New Arrivals, Most Viewed, Most Sold, Most Reviewed, Most Rated, Most Tagged, Absolute Free, Editors' Picks, Clearance and Great Offers. Navigation choices can be displayed on the header, footer and side panels of the home page and landing pages alike. Comprehensive back-end management settings let web store administrators emphasize their key products.

Advance Shop By also passes on the advantages to shoppers and customers. Visitors to the website get a quick idea of which are the top-selling products, which products have been reviewed and rated, what everyone is buying and what people are saying about the products. Their attention is directed to price discounts and clearance offers. Navigation and checkout becomes straightforward.
