Engineering360 Launches Today!

09/24/2014 7:45 AM

Engineering360 will launch late today! Remember that CR4 is going to be a part of this new site. There will be a new masthead on all CR4 pages.

You can still access CR4 via http://cr4.globalspec.com and you'll use your same login credentials.

The Login Box is MISSING from that page. That's a critical error.

The top 7/8ths of the page is useless wasted space. Whoever designed the page has no idea of the value of desktop real estate. Most of it is empty white space, the rest of it is a couple boring lists of links to other pages. Everything here could be placed into the top 1/5th of the page and re-designed with attractive icons.

The icon/label 'HOME' should say 'IHS HOME' to distinguish it from the CR4 HOME which everyone here at CR4 has been familiar with for years. Just calling it 'HOME' is confusing. (I clicked on it thinking I was going to CR4 Home and was confused when I got to the IHS page.)

It seems that CR4 isn't displaying as expected in Chrome and Firefox.

You can log in using this link: http://cr4.globalspec.com/user/login

I realize the new breadcrumb trail is confusing. The layout is because CR4 is now a part of IHS Engineering360, so it's no longer its own site.

Looks like we're back up and running! Try a hard refresh if you still can't see the login button.
