Yext Significantly Improves Functionality and Ease of Use with New Platform Features
Thursday, May 19, 2022

An improved UI, new Google sync settings, and drag-and-drop search customization will help businesses work more efficiently in the Yext platform.

NEW YORK, May 11, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Yext, Inc. (NYSE: YEXT), the Answers Company, today announced the general availability of its Spring '22 Release, which introduces new navigation and other features designed to improve platform performance.

The release includes updated posting functionality and support for new Google sync settings, features that will help brands better manage listings across Yext's expansive publisher network. With Search Merchandiser and the "Nebula" algorithm update, businesses can more seamlessly customize search results on websites, apps, chatbots, intranets, and elsewhere.

"At Yext, we empower businesses to work smarter, not harder," said Marc Ferrentino, President and Chief Operating Officer at Yext. "Our Spring Release is jam-packed with new features that will help brands optimize their use of the Yext platform to deliver exceptional digital experiences wherever customers and employees look for information."

The Spring '22 Release includes the following features:

    --  New Navigation and Home Screen: When logging into the Yext platform,
        users will now be greeted with an updated home screen, complete with a
        new sidebar navigation and "Quick Find" tool. The new format improves
        administrators' efficiency to better focus on building and managing
        their search experiences.

    --  Listings Updates: New Google sync settings will provide increased
        visibility and control for businesses that manage their online listings
        with Yext. A new set of filtering capabilities on the "All Listings"
        page will also give companies an easier way to manage Listings and the
        data sent to Yext's network of 200+ global integration partners.

    --  Posting Modernization: For businesses that want to effectively reach
        audiences through posts on social media, websites, or Google Business
        Profiles, Yext's updated posting UI and API turn communicating important
        news -- such as limited time offers, location updates, and featured
        products -- into a seamless process.

    --  Search Merchandiser: Businesses can now use a new drag-and-drop
        interface specially designed to customize individual search results and
        influence the ranking and position of products, locations, services, and
        more.

    --  Nebula Algorithm Update: Following last year's "Phoenix," the latest
        Yext algorithm update, "Nebula," adds even more advanced functionality.
        Businesses now have access to improved ranking of search verticals,
        Functions in Query Rules that can power new use cases, and additional
        support for multi-language experiences.
    --  New Connectors: Yext's growing library of Data Connectors allows
        businesses to easily consolidate data into a centralized platform to
        better power their customer and employee search experiences. With the
        latest update to the Connectors framework businesses can pull
        information from sources like Google Drive, JIRA, and PDF documents.
