How do I Display Products from Different Companies Side-By-Side?

Compare in what way? To the left on product page you have "Your Specifications" you can search for products with specs you need, and then compare pricing and support....It's more about what product fits your needs for the best price and support....everybody has their own criteria for the right product for the job needed, this is what you must decide and then specify those criteria in your search for the best match....

You can open a new tab for each website and click from one to the next.

Or you can open your browser multiple times, using a separate window for each website. Depending on the size of your monitor you could put the four windows side-by side or in quadrants.

Just to add to what you have said; click the middle 'radio button' in the top right corner of your browser to make the window smaller. You can resize the window by grabbing a corner, or edge and dragging. Within each window you place the portion you want to see within the small window.

I use excel and make up a sheet with all the parameters that I am interested in, I give each parameter a value/weight according to my personal wishes, and simply add them up to see which one is the best for me personally, the one that comes out with the highest score will be purchased.

I do this for buying anything of value, cars as well.....

I can then see each and every article and compare them easily.

Any way that works for you, here are some suggestions:

Print off the spec sheets and view them side by side.

Right click on the internet explorer button and open another search window, do this for all four product companies then when you put your cursor on the explorer button four windows will pop up and you can select which to view.

Take screen shots of the products and put them in a power point slide show.

I use two monitors all the time, perhaps you could hook up four monitors and all at once.

Barrow three laptops from your friends and put them by your computer now you have four computers side by side to do whatever you want with.

Use your imagination....

Thank you all for your replies! It has been a few years since I've used globalspec, and the really cool thing I remember was the ability to choose similar products from several companies, and view the specs side-by-side. This could be done without doing some of the gymnastics you folks are describing.
Looks like globalspec decided to eliminate what I considered the most powerful feature on the site. Too bad; wish they would recall that feature.
Again thanks for all your nice replies!!
