Well, yes and no. You can go to there and find all the teams. That's what the search engine does. But you have to look through the whole list to get what you want.
Let's say you know the teams' sponsor 'UTC'. By doing a search for UTC you will end up with all the UTC teams with websites. This search could have done on your own at FIRST's webpage list, with a little effort.
However, let's say you don't know where the Viking Robotics website is. By just knowing nick-names and pieces of information like that, it would take you a very long time to find their site at FIRST's webpage list. You can do a search at BuzzScout for 'Viking' and you will get their site instantly.

: Isn't this already available by going to 'Team Home Pages' on the FIRST site? Maybe I am missing something.
