Is your PIM already showing signs of age?

Cloud technology and the e-commerce-driven concept of composable architecture are leading to ever greater system interchangeability along the digital value chain. Theoretically, this also includes PIM systems as a data source for all central product communication processes.

While modern cloud technologies have technically simplified this type of system replacement, many companies underestimate the effort involved in implementation, migration, and integration.
