Productsup: Content Syndication’s Role in Industry 4.0
Today’s Challenges for PIM Executives
Surpassing the capabilities of legacy systems, industrial product content - while in high demand - is facing increasingly complex expectations and requirements.
Contributing to this change is the industry’s surge in digitalisation of information and order flows, the adoption of eCommerce alongside other aspects of industry 4.0.
These challenges are “leaving PIM organisations unable to comply with the level of demand or variety in expectations. Teams that need data exports require agility that cannot be met by PIM specialists, informaticians, and designers using highly technical tools,” explains Productsup.
However, there is a light at the end of the tunnel; next-generation product content syndication platforms can help PIM executives and data managers to meet the increased demand.
Such platforms automate data export configurations allowing product information to be received in preferred formats and quality, and “most importantly of all, this is an extremely agile technology, delivering results within hours rather than weeks,” emphasises Productsup.

Driving new product content syndication platforms for the industrial industry is user-centricity.

The Core Principles of New Product Content Syndication Include:
- Providing the tools needed to create exports
- Ensuring fast delivery turnaround (minutes/hours)
- Agility to make adjustments and export data quickly
- The ability to take advantage of new markets, and channel new opportunities
- Capability to predict costs and a clear return on investment (ROI)
