The quality of product pages is a cornerstone of the customer experience—especially in an omnichannel world where every channel demands consistency, accuracy, and speed. Yet many companies—even well-organized ones—make common mistakes in managing product information.
The good news: these mistakes can be corrected (or even prevented) with a modern PIM (Product Information Management) system. Here are the top 5 most frequent errors and how to solve them effectively.
A customer sees one price on your e-commerce site, another on a marketplace, and yet another in your PDF catalog. The result? Confusion, loss of trust, and fewer conversions.
✅ How a PIM helps:
A PIM centralizes all product data into a single source of truth. It automatically syncs data across all your channels (website, marketplaces, catalogs, etc.) to ensure perfect consistency.
Mistake 2: Incomplete or poorly detailed product pages
A page with no description, no visuals, or no technical specs drives customers away. Worse: it makes you invisible on search engines.
✅ How a PIM helps:
A PIM helps structure and enrich product data with required fields, validation workflows, and content suggestions.
Some PIMs (like Prodygo) even use AI to generate descriptions and recommend improvements.
A missing color variant, a page translated into English but not Spanish… Result: costly errors and lost revenue.
✅ How a PIM helps:
A PIM easily manages product variants (size, color, language…) using a parent-child structure. You save time and keep all versions updated with just a few clicks.
Excel files quickly become outdated, error-prone, and hard to manage collaboratively. Manual copy-paste operations can lead to dozens of hidden mistakes.
✅ How a PIM helps :
A PIM replaces Excel with a collaborative interface, including user permissions, version history, and automated imports/exports. Say goodbye to files like “catalog-final-v3-last-version-OK.xlsx”!
Amazon, Carrefour, ManoMano, Etsy… each has its own product content rules. Non-compliance can lead to publication rejections—or even penalties.
✅ How a PIM helps:
A good PIM includes channel-specific templates, alerts you to missing fields, and lets you tailor product pages without starting from scratch.
🧠 In Summary: Without a PIM, you’re managing in the dark
A modern PIM isn’t a luxury—it’s a necessity. It helps structure, secure, and distribute product data efficiently and at scale, no matter how many SKUs or channels you manage.
