Pimcore Reviews & Product Details

It can be customised to handle virtually any business logic and comes with a wide range of features and functions that you can use out of the box or extend as needed. This includes workflows, role-based permissions, completeness rules, and automation for mundane tasks, and more recently an added framework for AI and AI refinement. Pimcore used to offer a very low TCO for companies, and although they moved to a licensing model in later versions, the cost still isn’t huge. The new Studio UI provides a much better user experience along with improved performance. The Data Hub is essential as well, since Pimcore is where you want to maintain a single source of truth for all consuming systems, and you typically need both input and output integrations with support for whatever formats those systems require. You need to set up and understand the company data model and channels, once you have that mapped out, most of the work is detailing how you and your different departments are to work with the software. One key change for us was coming from a flat structure to a hierarchy structure with use of inheritance. We had a great partner help us. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The only thing I dislike about Pimcore is the redefinition of bundles that used to be part of the community offering but were later moved to the Enterprise subscription. This means that companies already building on top of bundles like Web2Print not only have to pay for a Professional edition, but may end up having to jump from the zero-cost Community edition straight to the Enterprise edition. That’s a much bigger cost to swallow than being able to move gradually from Community 2024.4 to Professional 2025.1. If they used Web2Print features in 2024.4, then they will need the Enterprise edition to upgrade to 2025.1 or beyond. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like that Pimcore is very flexible and allows me to manage and output data very easily. Building websites with Pimcore is very pleasant. I also find the constant development impressive because you can see that the product is always improving and nothing stands still. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The documentation is often somewhat lax, which can be irritating when using it. However, if you are well-versed in the code, you know what to do. The initial setup was somewhat complicated, but understandable after the first time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I really appreciate Pimcore's simplicity in managing both data and experiences using a single interface, which means we don't need multiple applications anymore. I also like how you can create data models specifically tailored for our industry, addressing our complex and varied product workflows. Pimcore's ability to handle data modeling and governance without us having to adapt to the platform is a significant positive. It's pleasant that Pimcore adapts to our needs rather than the other way around. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I found Pimcore a little bit complex in the past. It seemed to be very complex, but this has now been solved with the new Pimcore Studio. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Pim-Core became the only source of information about product data in our organization, also we have automated all publishing of product pages in 8 languages direct to our website, the hole process took some time but it works like a Swiss clock. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I'd like our people to be mor independent with changes, and not to relay on the integrators Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It’s easy to configure to fit my needs, and the open API makes integrations straightforward. Saving us time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There’s almost nothing to it—except the price tag it comes with and that you´ll need a partner. It takes a lot of time to learn configuring all by yourself Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Pimcore is the main touchpoint where corporate information and assets reside (multifunction hub). We use the solution as DXP for major tour operators and various industries who need to centralise, rationalise and elevate their digital information. Also, B2B solutions are enhanced thanks to the platform. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The solution is not usually requested for its e-commerce features but we recommend Pimcore for all the aspects mentioned in the pros. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Our company likes the flexibility and scalability of the platform. We were able to customize Pimcore to our exact requirements and connect it with a wide range of external systems. Over time, the platform has continued to grow with us, and we are far from reaching the limits of its functionality. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

As a flexible framework, Pimcore offers many possibilities and functionalities. This can be intimidating for beginners at first. However, once the system is set up according to your needs, you will quickly find your way around the backend. We recommend working with a Pimcore partner to ideally adapt Pimcore to your own requirements and wishes and to achieve the greatest possible added value for your own business.
