Company name search can't handle missing punctuation
It seems like your search shouldn't require punctuation in company names such as O'Reilly or Trader Joe's. If I search for "oreilly" or "trader joes" I get a message that "No companies found matching..." I would like it if I could search more easily (including suggestions for misspelled company names)

Inappropriate?Very good suggestion-- we definitely need to optimize the search along these lines, and it is on the to do list. I completely sympathize with your frustration!
I’m right there with you

Inappropriate?This is a known issue :(
You may have noticed that the company search behaves differently than the product search. Part of solving the problem you mention is unifying the search semantics between both products and companies. At that point, the problem will go away.
I can't give you a definite date on when it will be fixed, but most likely it would be soon after the new year when it gets fixed. We here at the Satisfactory have our hands full, and I'm a week away from starting my christmas vacation!
I’m happy to spend my christmas at home

Inappropriate?Not including spaces also causes same problem -- company search for getsatisfaction does not find Get Satisfaction. Pesky!

Inappropriate?Good catch! In addition to general tuning of our search feature, we're discussing a synonyms feature for company/product names so that we can be smarter about alternative names.
