Project Successes

Efficient Data Management Thanks to Akeneo

Efficient Data Management Thanks to Akeneo

With the new product information management (PIM) system, TENTE can manage and update its product data much more efficiently. The flexible data model makes it possible to add new attributes or change existing ones quickly and easily. Furthermore, the centralised management of product data via reference entities saves time and avoids redundancies. Thanks to the modernised data management, everyone involved has access to up-to-date and consistent information, which significantly facilitates collaboration and workflows.

Consulting Through Workshops and the »Driving School Model«

Competent Advice at All Levels

The dotSource experts provided consulting services on methodological, configurational and technical aspects to ensure that the new PIM system was perfectly tailored to TENTE's requirements. This was achieved through joint workshops as well as close collaboration following the »driving school model«. As a result, the employees of the castor manufacturer benefit from the flexibility and intuitive usability of the Serenity Enterprise Edition of Akeneo's PIM system.

Best-of-Breed Architecture as a Future-Proof Basis

Stable Best-of-Breed Architecture

Driven by the desire to modernise its system landscape, TENTE created a solid and future-proof basis for switching to a best-of-breed architecture. Thanks to Akeneo's software-as-a-service approach, updates and new features are made available quickly. Moreover, the scalability of the IT architecture is ensured by interfaces provided for other system landscape components.

The collaboration with dotSource is characterised by transparency and openness. Even during the system selection process, it was clearly communicated to us what is possible with the new system and where further work needs to be done. Especially the methodological approach adopted in the workshops has helped us make significant progress throughout the project.
