ECS PIM Connector Makes Sharing Easy!

We live in an era of webshops and E-commerce platforms and the biggest challenge is keeping up with the right product information. Our PIM Connector can help you with that.

We live in an era of webshops and E-commerce platforms and the biggest challenge is keeping up with the right product information. As the digital world moves very fast, keeping track of product information is a time-consuming task for many companies. For example, there is often no central place for the product data, which creates communication problems about the correctness and location of the information. This takes a lot of time and this is of course a shame.

 

PIM System

A development in this is a Product Information Management system (PIM). A PIM system offers one central place for the most important product information. This means that you collect, enrich and exchange the information in the PIM. The next step is to distribute this correct information to various sales channels such as a BigCommerce webshop. How exactly does this work?

 

ECS PIM Connector

ECS International has developed a PIM connector with which you can automatically retrieve the correct data from your PIM System (eg Katana). Our PIM connector converts this information into the correct and desired format and will then automatically add it to an end system and/or E-Commerce platform. The connection is made through APIs.

 

The Advantages:

The benefits for your organization of implementing our PIM connector are:

  • Product information is no longer maintained in different systems (error sensitive), so 1 user-friendly dashboard (PIM system) where you keep track of, add and/or delete product information
  • 1 push of a button and all linked end systems, e-commerce platforms are provided with the latest product information
  • No more manual operations to copy and paste data
  • The product information is converted everywhere to the correct and desired format
  • No need to check whether the products are displayed correctly on the end systems/e-commerce platforms
  • Your employees get more time to do what they do best


How Does That Look Graphically?

A schematic representation of how our PIM connector works is shown below:

This example is made with the Katana PIM connector, and connecting to other PIM systems is of course possible. Take back control in this digital E-commerce world and opt for ease of use and security.
