PIM / DAM

Centralise, enrich, and distribute product data at scale with Pimcore PIM/DAM — eliminate spreadsheet chaos across every sales channel.

Senior engineers only, no subcontractors

Product data is the thing every commerce business insists is “basically fine” — right up until they need a second sales channel, a new starter can’t find the correct product description, or three teams are quietly maintaining three different versions of the same catalogue.

Before and after

Most businesses don’t choose a PIM — they get forced into one, usually right after the second spreadsheet export breaks something.

Without a PIM

  • Spreadsheet-per-channel — a new marketplace means a new export, formatted by hand, drifting out of sync within a month.
  • Tribal knowledge — the “correct” product description lives in someone’s head, not a system, until they leave.

With Pimcore PIM/DAM

  • One record, every channel — enrich a product once, publish everywhere: web, marketplaces, print, POS.
  • New channels in days — adding a sales channel becomes a mapping exercise, not a re-typing exercise.

Where this fits

Most valuable once you’re selling the same catalogue across more than one channel — a website plus a marketplace, digital plus print, wholesale plus retail. Before that point, a well-organised spreadsheet is probably still fine.

Common questions

Frequently asked questions.

What's the difference between a PIM and a DAM, and do we need both?

A PIM holds structured product information: titles, descriptions, attributes, pricing data, channel-specific copy. A DAM holds the files: product photography, videos, spec sheets, brand assets. Pimcore does both in one platform, so an image is linked to the product it belongs to rather than hunted for in a shared drive. If you already run a separate DAM your team is happy with, we can integrate with it instead of replacing it.

How do we know if we actually need a PIM yet?

The tipping point is usually selling the same catalogue in more than one place: a website plus a marketplace, retail plus wholesale, digital plus print. That's when spreadsheets start drifting out of sync. If you only sell through one channel and your catalogue is stable, a well-organised spreadsheet may still be fine. We'll tell you that honestly in discovery rather than sell you a platform you don't need yet.

Can Pimcore integrate with Magento, Shopify, WooCommerce or our ERP?

Yes. Pimcore sits in the middle of your stack: it takes in product data from your ERP or suppliers, lets your team enrich it, then publishes it out to Adobe Commerce, Magento Open Source, Shopify, WooCommerce, marketplaces or print. Integration is where most PIM projects succeed or fail, which is why we design the data flows and system integrations alongside the PIM itself, not as an afterthought.

Our product and design teams aren't technical. Will they be able to use it?

Yes, if it's set up around how they work. Pimcore's interface can be configured so each team only sees the fields and workflows relevant to them, with approval steps before anything publishes. We run hands-on training during launch, document the workflows we build, and adjust them once your team has used the system for real, because the first version of any workflow is rarely the final one.

Can you migrate our existing product data from spreadsheets or another system?

Yes. Migration is usually the biggest single piece of a PIM project. We map your existing spreadsheets, supplier feeds or legacy system into Pimcore's data model, clean and de-duplicate along the way, and reconcile the result so nothing silently goes missing. It's also the best opportunity to fix inconsistent attributes and naming that have built up over years, rather than carrying them into the new system.

How long does a Pimcore implementation take, and what does it cost?

It depends mostly on catalogue size, the number of systems feeding it and the channels it publishes to. A focused implementation typically takes 4-12 weeks after discovery; larger multi-channel projects take longer. Submit an RFP with your catalogue size and channels and we'll come back within two business days with a realistic estimate.

Do you support Pimcore after launch?

Yes. Our Technical Support service covers monitoring, security patches and routine Pimcore upgrades. If you want to keep building, a Development Retainer gives you a known monthly budget for new features and requests. Or we can help on an ad hoc basis as needs arise.
