The Quintessence >
Some highlights
Below you will find some highlights of the solution under consideration that particularly caught our attention during the analysis.

Mature combination of PIM and DAM:
The origins of the Contentserv solution are still in its genes, and so it offers a mature and robust solution for single-source marketing production. Both products and stories can be managed and produced in high quality - especially in connection with priint Comet, Contentserv offers a particularly deep integration. Many media production scenarios can also be implemented with the connection to the Adobe Creative Cloud.

Large partner network:
Contentserv has a very large and diverse partner network with over 40 integrators worldwide. Training and certification programs guarantee quality. Thus, this offers a large selection of implementation partners with industry expertise and a lot of professional know-how.

Workspaces & Portals:
Depending on the use case or role, completely different workspaces with different functions can be configured for internal and external users. This makes it possible to offer particularly easy-to-use workspaces and portals tailored to the use case to enable searching and downloading of shared media and content. This reduces the amount of training required and increases acceptance and thus usage by users.

Artificial Intelligence (DAM):
By integrating various AI services, Contentserv DAM is at the cutting edge of technology. In addition to automated image tagging, Contentserv also offers, for example, automatic image cropping or the determination of a focal point which always ensures that the most important part of the image is optimally visible on all conceivable devices and in all possible channels.

CDN integrations:
The Contentserv Product Experience Cloud provides native CDN functionalities as standard, which are provided by the provider Cloudflare as part of the Product Experience Cloud. There are also connectors for the Contentserv DAM to leading providers such as Cloudinary or Amazon CloudFront, which guarantee a high-performance delivery of digital assets to all channels.

Shortened supply chains:
The worldwide crises of recent years have clearly shown the economy how vulnerable global supply chains are. Contentserv has also recognized this and was one of the first in the industry to begin massively reducing development capacities offshore and building them up in Europe. In this way, Contentserv is providing an important building block for long-term supply capability.

Below you will find some highlights of the solution under consideration that particularly caught our attention during the analysis.

Large partner network:
With over 40 integrators worldwide, Contentserv has a very large and diverse partner network. network. Training and certification programs guarantee quality. It should therefore be easy to find a suitable implementation partner who can perhaps even contribute industry experience to the project and who fits in personally.

Translation Management:
Contentserv offers no fewer than 8 integrations with market-leading translation systems - including AI-based services. Alternatively, its own integrated translation system is also available. The workflow-based determination of translation needs, release processes and control of versions of versions round out the positive picture around translations.

CloudStreams:
Under the heading CloudStreams, Contentserv offers a rapidly growing cloud library that significantly simplifies and accelerates customizing for customers. Examples include configurations for deployments, ETIM standards, currencies, GHS Precautionary Statements, Google Taxonomy, Customs Commodity Groups, etc. The selection of available configurations can be seen in the Contentserv Marketplace.

Smart Documents and FlexTables:
Smart Documents and FlexTables technologies enable the creation of data sheets and non-creative content such as price lists for products and accessories. FlexTables enables configurable, template-based table output of business cards and other publications without the use of Adobe Indesign. The Smart Templates are designed in HTML and CSS. Special CSS instructions and a PDF library ensure that product content can be output with a single mouse click. This allows global sales or marketing teams to access approved product information in real time and output it in a template-based manner.

Supplier data onboarding:
Purely rule-based mappings for the inclusion of external product information often fail due to the quality of the supplied data. Either the supplier has not adhered to the template or the values simply do not fit the company's own data model. Contentserv has developed a new module for the inclusion of supplier data to solve this problem. developed. This makes it possible to create supplier-specific and thus simpler for the supplier to define Excel templates that already enable the supplier to check his data. Contentserv combines this with supplier-specific mapping rules, table editor and data quality report before import into the PIM. A highlight is the AI-based mapping, e.g. for colors or classifications.

ChatGPT integration:
Contentserv was one of the first providers to create beneficial integrations with ChatGPT: the artificial intelligence helps the content manager with the onboarding of supplier data by analyzing the uploaded Excel and suggesting a mapping to the PIM attributes based on the column headers and the column contents; the suggestion can be customized by the user. In addition, the AI helps with value mapping and suggests, for example, for the imported color value "Wood" the existing color tone "Brown" in the PIM. The assignment to the product categories and the creation of a product description also takes place automatically. Further AI services can be integrated here or at any other point in the product enrichment chain. Contentserv has...

Contextualization:
Since version 21.5, Contentserv PIM also offers the possibility to define contexts for attributes. With the help of this functionality, companies can describe and derive their products even more precisely for e.g. different channels, B2B target groups or even B2C personas.

Shortened supply chains:
The worldwide crises of recent years have clearly shown the economy how vulnerable global supply chains are. Contentserv has also recognized this and was one of the first in the industry to start massively reducing development capacities offshore and building them up in Europe. In this way, Contentserv is providing an important building block for long-term supply capability.

  • Basic entry

    For this purpose, a provider supplies us with basic information, which we display in a structured form on a detail page. This gives you the opportunity to quickly gain a first impression of this provider.

  • Advanced entry

    With an Advanced entry, we carry out an assessment with the provider in order to gain a deeper impression and check the plausibility of the information provided. This means greater information security for your initial search.
