inriver PIM vs. Plytix

inRiver [PIM] is pretty easy to use. I can see a company with a more narrow product selection benefiting from this PIM. The challenge comes with the more SKUs and categories the company offers. Without our 3rd party implementor creating specialized imports for us, we would be having a difficult time managing mass data updates.

When I compared these other PIM platforms, I found several were not true PIM systems. Although they solved for some significant syndication challenges, they did not have the ability to build a relational databased across products and categories. Furthermore, the interface is much more user-friendly and the ability to engage the entire team with workflow is a big plus!

Plytix might be the small dog, but it has big fight! The above solutions were too big, expensive and too entrenched in their specific workflows. Plytix is super nimble and you can tailor it to meet your specific needs.
