Today 10:01 AM ET (Business Wire)
Agility Multichannel, whose Agility(R)
enterprise software empowers manufacturers, distributors and
retailers around the world to conquer the complexities of commerce,
today announced that it had been identified as a strong performer in an
evaluation of PIM solution vendors in The Forrester Wave(TM): Product
Information Management (PIM), Q2 2014 report. The report states:
"The solution is well suited for firms that need to syndicate product
content to multiple channels and includes integration with Adobe's
Creative Cloud for print as well as mature connectors for most of the
leading eCommerce platforms."
Outlining an evolving marketplace in which "customer demands for
high-quality, consistent product information and content are on the
rise," Forrester analysts submitted the ten most significant PIM vendors
to a detailed, 19-criteria evaluation model. Agility received some of
its highest scores for these criteria: "architecture and scalability,"
"workflow, approval, and business process support", "product taxonomy
and relationship management" and administration" and "vendor portal"
tools, putting its current offering at the top of a group of select
"Strong Performers," a term used to distinguish this field from the
larger players in the market.
Describing a "considerable uptick" in client inquiries about how PIM
solutions can replace home-grown ones, Wave authors Peter Sheldon and
Michele Goetz also noted in the report that:
"In a recent survey, 33% of eBusiness and channel strategy professionals
cited that investment in PIM technology was a top priority."
Agility Multichannel CEO Richard Hunt said: "The publication of the PIM
Wave couldn't be more timely. A historic number of businesses are
seeking solutions for mounting product information management challenges
and opportunities. We're extremely pleased to be included and are
gratified by our ranking in a highly competitive field."
