Chose inriver PIM
When I compared these other PIM platforms, I found several were not true PIM systems. Although they solved for some significant syndication challenges, they did not have the ability to build a relational databased across products and categories. Furthermore, the interface is …
inRiver [PIM] seems to be a mid-pricepoint program. The UI is certainly the highlight but the functionality seems to lack when it comes to mass-maintenance of large amounts of information that reaches across Items/Products/Categories/Assets.
PIMCore is Digital Platform making it single source of truth for many upstream and downstream system. Akeneo is just PIM and its doing PIM job properly but PimCore is much more than this. AEM is too costly and can't be affordable for many small and mid size companies.
inriver PIM is well suited for growing companies that might have multiple brands, categories, languages and a complicated data model. inriver PIM is more than a syndication service, which is important to differentiate from other so-called PIM providers. I specifically like the ability for ecosystem collaboration across multiple technology platforms. However, inriver, is a complicated system and requires an implementation partner, which could price it out of the range for some companies.
Pimcore is especially suitable for an organization that has a complex data model and processes that cannot be met easily with out of the box systems. It is especially helpful where data is lying in multiple legacy systems and needs complex integrations with these systems. It may not be the best choice for someone looking for and out of the box system with predefined features.
Pimcore is fully opensource and based on leading Symfony, the leading PHP framework. It has a well-developed partner network and community support.
In contrast to other systems that have a quite rigid architecture Pimcore is designed as a platform for developers. It can be used to model complex data architecture with ease and develop features tailored to customer needs.
It provides a fully integrated platform for Product Information Management, Digital Asset Management, and Enterprise Content Management. This ensures there is no duplication of assets and content and data across multiple systems.
All PIM features are also available through a REST-based Web Service allowing easy integration with other applications.
In addition to PIM, DAM and WCM features it also provides a robust eCommerce platform.
inRiver has been both helpful and responsive to our needs. Their customer service and ticketing system are top-notch - timely communications and followup
When I compared these other PIM platforms, I found several were not true PIM systems. Although they solved for some significant syndication challenges, they did not have the ability to build a relational databased across products and categories. Furthermore, the interface is much more user-friendly and the ability to engage the entire team with workflow is a big plus!
