The 5 biggest advantages of Akeneo PIM

Intuitive to the point

A tool can be as good as it is, but if it is complicated, cumbersome or very difficult to use, the results will be less good than they could be. What's more, a bulky, unwieldy solution won't motivate your employees and, more importantly, won't support them well enough to do their jobs to the best of their ability.

Akeneo PIM is designed to help your employees find their way around quickly and easily, to provide them with automation options in a meaningful and tangible way, and to effectively promote collaboration within the team and the company.

The personal view can be set up with filters and configuration with just a few clicks so that it optimally accommodates the individual tasks. Workflows that are easy to set up help ensure that tasks are not lost, are assigned correctly, and are completed.

Performant

We've already highlighted how Akeneo PIM takes your employees by the hand with an appealing and easy-to-understand design, helping them to perform their work fluidly and without detours.

Of course, this alone is not enough. The machinery behind it also needs plenty of power so that it doesn't fall to its knees even when the demands are high.

Akeneo PIM is ready for that, too. It doesn't matter whether it is used to maintain and manage 1000 or 100,000 products. The strong performance of Akeneo PIM is up to the challenge.

Faster on the market

Who wouldn't want to be on the market with their products faster?

Getting one's products ready for the market and thus saleable sooner is a very fundamental advantage of PIM systems. On the one hand, this is because a PIM system harmonizes the data and the various processes and tasks. As a result, there are fewer detours and errors, product descriptions and images have to be revised and corrected less often and thus reach your store, catalog or, for example, a marketplace faster.

Akeneo PIM goes one step further. An ingenious monitoring of data flows via the API, helps to achieve a high level of data timeliness and data quality and shows bottlenecks and gaps very early in the process. The time gained from this is clearly noticeable.

Slim entry

When first looking at a possible project for the introduction of a PIM system, in addition to the many and especially long-term significant advantages of a PIM system, the investment for such a project, the existing system landscape in the company and the required internal personnel resources always come to mind.
