PIMhub

PIMhub is a product information management (PIM) platform that provides organizations with a centralized repository for product data. It is designed to help manufacturers, distributors, and retailers manage catalog information, harmonize data across multiple channels, and deliver consistent product content to external buyers and e‑commerce sites. The system offers a web‑based user interface that simplifies data entry, bulk uploads, and workflow approvals, while also supporting API access for integration with ERP, CRM, and content management systems.

The software was first released in 2015 by a Berlin‑based startup and has since grown to support more than 1,200 companies worldwide. PIMhub differentiates itself by offering a low‑code customization layer that allows users to create custom data types and validation rules without writing code. It also includes advanced search and filtering capabilities, version control, and audit logging to comply with data governance standards.

Key features include multilingual data management, support for multiple units of measure, automated data enrichment using third‑party services, and reporting dashboards. Integration with popular marketplaces such as Amazon and eBay is provided via pre‑built connectors. The platform runs on a Linux‑based cloud infrastructure and offers both SaaS and self‑hosted deployment options.

In 2020 PIMhub partnered with the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) to align its data quality framework with ISO 9001 and ISO E-Commerce standards. The company has received several industry awards, including the 2021 Innovation Award in Product Data Management. According to customer reviews, the platform’s user interface is considered intuitive, though some large enterprises report a steep learning curve for complex taxonomies. PIMhub maintains an active developer community, offering API documentation, SDKs for Java and Python, and a public GitHub repository for open‑source extensions.
