Business Challenge

The successful growth of the company did not happen without impact to the website over the years.
The web presence continued to grow more complex with less clarity with each newly added business branch. Web pages with too much and long content for varying customer target groups were unable to provide the required overview and explain the company's complex solutions. Also, international customers had no English version of the web presence, leading to lessened visits despite much available content and information.
Additionally, automation and industry 4.0 should get a more important significance. New subsidiaries of the production area had to been added and integrated into the existing portfolio. Finally, the complex product database of electronics had to been portrayed adequately and exhaustively.

Pimcore Solution

The web page content and the whole enterprise group's product portfolio can be maintained and extended withing a single system. The new solution enables the maintenance of comprehensive services and product database, the company internet presence, and editing presences of each business branch in different languages for a national and international audience. Pimcore is flexible and open to support additional changes in the business branches in the future.

  • Branch specific websites for target group-specific content
  • Portal for applicants with connections to the own HR-System of the company group

Highlights of the product database

  • Product wish list with a comparison of key figures between them
  • Private area for registered customer with an additional offer of information
  • Presenting the own company product portfolio on partner pages
  • Maintenance of thousands of products with their other variations within a single system
  • Maintenance, Display, and Comparison of products despite their very different attributes
  • Dynamic navigation and display of products in configurable product ranges

Business Results

Each subsidiary is represented in a unified structure and corporate design overall branches. Target group-specific content enables better placement of services and products on their website and a better ranking of products.
Occasion-related webpages (landing pages) for trade fairs and embedding the product portfolio in partner websites are possible in a fast manner and comes in the corporate design of the HEITEC AG but can also be customized and extended with own content. Editorial content like company news, success stories, and job offers can be edited and customized with the integrated Pimcore user interfaces and editors' help. Extensions and new features of the project, e.g. a print of the product portfolio (Web2Print), are already planned due to the success of the project.
