Benefits of Pimcore
The open source PIM system comes with various benefits – depending on which Pimcore modules you implement. You can also tailor the software solution to your company's specific requirements – step by step, module by module. Here is an overview of the most important benefits:
Pimcore brings together PIM, DAM, MDM, experience management, content management and e-commerce functionalities. This allows you to manage digital business processes centrally – and does not require integration with third-party systems.
Thanks to its open source architecture, you can fully configure the platform in line with your needs. Scale Pimcore according to your business requirements and expand the platform as you grow and market conditions change.
Integrate Pimcore seamlessly into your existing IT landscape. Thanks to a variety of application programming interfaces (APIs) and connectors such as Pimcore Datahub, the solution fits in perfectly.
Pimcore's PIM and DAM functionalities enable centralised management and provision of product data and digital assets across all channels. This ensures consistency and efficiency in data management and shortens time to market.
With experience management and the built-in customer data platform (CDP), you can deliver a personalised customer experience. Create tailor-made campaigns and content by managing and analysing customer data centrally.
The open source platform provides you with an e-commerce ecosystem for B2B, B2C and B2B2C. Streamline your sales processes and ensure a consistent shopping experience across all channels.
Pimcore combines all modules in a user-friendly and intuitive interface. Increase the productivity of your team and restructure business processes efficiently.
As an open source platform, Pimcore is a free alternative to proprietary systems. If required, you can also scale up to a paid enterprise or platform-as-a-service (PaaS) licence at any time and benefit from a wider range of features.
