Here I will focus on websites that are comparing companies who deliver services in Ireland. I will not cover all providers, or brokers. Also brands listed are used as examples.
To compare your product with the competition you can:
- Search for a licensed suppliers + competitors, negotiate and finalise your engagement
- OR Use a comparison tool and let them do the job for you.
The Irish government has initiatives designed to help and privates companies will extend this comparison.
