The time I spend on product updates has fallen by at least a factor of 5.
And, others on my team can use Plytix to update what they need to. They used to send me an email, so I could do it, since it meant updating a spreadsheet and uploading that to Shopify. But now they can just do what they need to, and keep me out of the loop.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is PIM used for?

A product information management system, or PIM for short, is used to store, manage, edit, and even create product information like descriptions, prices, digital assets, SKUs, and more. It's like an organized hub where businesses can keep all their product data in one place. With Plytix PIM you can manage, enrich, and share product catalogs easily. It helps teams work together smoothly, maintain top-notch data quality, and makes sure customers get the right information on whatever channel they look for it.

Do you need PIM for Shopify?

If you sell across various channels, absolutely! While Shopify is an excellent platform for running your online store, it’s not specifically designed to store, manage, optimize, or distribute your product data to multiple platforms. That's where a Product Information Management system (PIM) like Plytix comes in. With PIM, you can centralize all your product information, making it easy to manage and distribute across all your channels. By using PIM, you make sure your product data is always accurate, consistent, and ready to go, freeing up your time to focus on growing your business.

Does Shopify have its own PIM system?

No, Shopify does not have its own PIM system. Shopify is designed for online store management. It’s able to host product data for a Shopify store itself, but it doesn't offer the specialized tools needed for advanced product information management across various channels. PIM fills this gap by providing a dedicated solution for storing, managing, and optimizing product data, ensuring seamless integration with your Shopify store and other channels as well.

How much does PIM for Shopify cost?

We believe in pricing that’s simple and affordable with no unexpected surprises. With Plytix you pay only for what you need with plans starting as low as $/€699 per month.
