[Tweet](https://twitter.com/share) ### New website search tools make getting help with applications from your local OptoPartners or distributors easier. Are you needing a system integrator to help with your industrial automation projects? You need access to companies with expertise and application experience working with all Opto 22 product lines, including *groov* EPIC and *groov* RIO. The Opto 22 website has just been updated with new search tools that make it easy to find an OptoPartner to help you design, integrate, install, or upgrade your industrial control system. See how to find a partner near you. #### Search for an OptoPartner First, locate the [OptoPartner page](https://www.opto22.com/community/opto-partners) from the Community drop down menu. [![OPPageDropdownSSv2](https://blog.opto22.com/hs-fs/hubfs/OPPageDropdownSSv2.png?width=800&height=310&name=OPPageDropdownSSv2.png)](https://www.opto22.com/community/opto-partners) This revamped page now includes an interactive map with location markers for all active OptoPartners in the Opto 22 system integrator network. ![OPSearchMap2025](https://blog.opto22.com/hs-fs/hubfs/OPSearchMap2025.png?width=800&height=305&name=OPSearchMap2025.png) OptoPartners appear alphabetically on the page, but the search bar above the map lets you search by state, country, or company name. You can then fine-tune your search by using the filter functions to the left of the map, including: - Application Experience - Industries - Hardware Experience - Software Experience And the Reset Search button on the top right allows you to clear filters and start new searches. ![OPFilterSearchSS](https://blog.opto22.com/hs-fs/hubfs/OPFilterSearchSS.png?width=800&height=161&name=OPFilterSearchSS.png) OptoPartner company names and contact information that meet your search criteria appear on the map. Click the company name for their location and an information box next to the map. You'll see quick icon links to their website, email, and phone number. ![OPSerachResultExampleSS](https://blog.opto22.com/hs-fs/hubfs/OPSerachResultExampleSS.png?width=800&height=354&name=OPSerachResultExampleSS.png) Click the company name in the box to continue to their specific OptoPartner page. Here you'll find even more details about their application and product experience, the regions they service, and details on previous projects. [![FIND AN OPTOPARTNER](https://hubspot-no-cache-na2-prod.s3.amazonaws.com/cta/default/439485/cc6f89a5-9479-4a0c-b193-f383d9bf1981.png)](https://hubspot-cta-redirect-na2-prod.s3.amazonaws.com/cta/redirect/439485/cc6f89a5-9479-4a0c-b193-f383d9bf1981) #### Looking to purchase products through an OptoDistributor?
