PIM Foundations

If you need quick time-to-value with PIM, either as a rapid project, a standalone project, or the first step in a larger initiative, our PIM Foundations implementation is for you.

This package uses templates to launch PIM faster. From our easy-to-use discovery survey to industry-specific data model templates, we’ve created tools based on over a decade of PIM experience. With PIM Foundations, you and your teams into working software faster than you thought possible.

PIM Foundations is the critical first step for businesses that want to empower their teams quickly. It limits the number of integrations and configurations and answers your business needs with out-of-the-box features. It focuses on speed. It’s affordable. It’s an easier implementation for those who need PIM wins in a hurry.

PIM Foundations+

Ntara’s PIM Foundations+ is for businesses that want their PIM implementation to meet more requirements in the first iteration. While time-to-value is important, complex requirements and change management needs mean that you must be focused on providing value across the organization.

You need a longer-term partner in PIM. Your vision is larger in scale. You must integrate your PIM with multiple origin sources and syndicate data to multiple channel types. Your business model and go-to-market strategies are complex. You need a PIM that can handle everything from new data types via acquisition to the launch of new channel types.

PIM Foundations+ is for businesses that want to be product-led and customer-focused. By investing in customizations and add-ons such as supplier onboarding and custom workflows, you set yourself up for limitless scale.

Ntara’s PIM and product data clients

Before PIM software became popular in the US, we built custom data management solutions. As it gained traction globally, we became certified partners of the leading global platforms—and frequently consult on new and emerging ones. With this expertise and a skilled team, we give our clients a clear advantage.

Ntara’s PIM partners

We partner with a variety of PIM software so we can tailor each PIM project to the needs of our clients. Some businesses want PIM solely for syndication to retail channels. Others want PIM to do the heavy lifting in terms of data storage, workflows, and enrichment. Our PIM portfolio is growing. Check out each partner page to learn the ins and outs of their platforms.
