Information management for online store developers is getting more and more difficult as every day the demand for new products is growing as fast as sales. Because of Product Information Management (PIM) software, online businesses can improve the process and save a huge amount of time.
Akeneo is an open source product information management (PIM) software which recently was recognized as the TOP PIM solution by the premier German evaluation authority TGOA. The creators of Akeneo also contributed to solving the issue of syncing product data between Akeneo and Magento.
Connector’s evolution
They first started with the Magento Connector Bundle but later found there were limitations linked to the native Magento SOAP API which was used to send product data. After some time the Magento Connector Bundle was replaced by PIMGento – a Magento module that allowed the import of attributes, families, products and variant groups from Magento to Akeneo. And now there is a brand new Magento connector called Pim2Magento.
The power of Pim2Magento
For frequent data updates, Pim2Magento is a great solution. Besides categories, families, attributes and products, media data is now also able to be imported to Magento. The intuitive interface allows you to setup and control connections in a far more compatible way.
So what are the key attributes of Akeneo’s connector Pim2Magento?
- Transferring data from Akeneo to Magento is more effective than ever before;
- Simple usability, configuration, and setup;
- Frequent data updates are easily and reliably managed;
- Independence between apps.
