4. We've been stuck

From 2002 to 2009, the founders of Pimcore were running a digital agency . Working on many digital transformation projects, they successfully managed to scale their company from 5 to 50 employees. When selecting software for their clients they strictly followed a "best-of-breed" approach. This meant selecting the "best" software for a particular use case (with most features). Over the years, they amassed and maintained hundreds of different technologies. This became a tedious task and they felt stuck in "integration hell". Their clients were not happy, employees were quitting, and the ROI of their business was low.

We've been stuck

Have you ever seen such a lousy burger?

Have you ever seen such a lousy burger?

Seems familiar? - Your agency pitch goes really well, and your clients are looking forward to the awesome solution you are going to deliver. You talk about digital disruption, the AI/ML revolution, and complete digital transformation. But can you keep the promise?

Have you ever seen such a lousy burger?

In 2009 the founders of Pimcore realized that they were limited by the variety of different technologies their agency used, because it restricted their flexibility and time-to-market. They wanted to deliver the best solutions, but often were not able to meet the high client expectations.

Manage Any Data

Manage any data! That's exactly what Pimcore can do. A single application which can be used to work with any type and amount of digital data. Unstructured data such as web content, structured data such as products and attributes, and digital assets such as images, videos, and document files. One single system to rule them all.

Serve Any Industry

Digital agencies need to be able to serve clients in various industries, such as retail, manufacturing, travel, and more. On top of managing any data, their digital platform, therefore, needs to be able to handle any data model. This makes it compatible to any industry and any vertical. The capability to model any data is an important building block for PIM/MDM.

Manage Any Channel

A system that can manage any data needs to be able to deliver data to any output channel. Multi-channel and single-source publishing ensure higher efficiency and are the foundation for successful digital transformation. Pimcore's comprehensive APIs deliver and even render data for any output channel such as web, commerce, print, and digital signage.

integration-2
Keep Developers Happy

We love developers. Because they are the backbone of every digital agency. If developers love a development environment, the solutions they build will be great. Most developers prefer frameworks, based on the latest technology, rather than out-of-the-box applications. They want solid APIs in conjunction with a flexible event-driven software architecture.
