Akeneo - The Simple Yet Powerful PIM
What do you like best?
The creation of attributes, families, categories, assets including images, videos, 3D-Models, and PDFs are a straight forward 'to-do' in our Akeneo PIM.
The import & export capabilities of our Akeneo PIM will meet the demand of the majority of your end user needs especially the export with filter options.
The support from Akeneo's helpdesk, Customer Success Manager, and Product Team are instrumental in helping resolve any day to day issues that might arise from our Akeneo PIM.
What do you dislike?
The creation of product models (variants) requires an UI that needs to be much more user friendly then the current importing and exporting of product model templates.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
When going through the requirements with a potential PIM suitor ensure that the 'core' requirements are being meant, do not get lost in the 'bell and whistle' features which potentially will never be utilized.
What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized?
We have been working closely with the Akeneo product team to enhance the Onboarder (vendor portal) and rule engine among other enhancements.
The Onboarder has already been enhanced with the features that were discussed and the new rule engine is coming out in Akeneo 5.0
