Millions of Products available anywhere

Bokusgruppen currently has about 13 million products in its assortment but wants to able to quickly scale to 20 million unique products. This calls for a PIM first approach and can only be achieved with a powerful system that can handle the data volume. The system must be able to enrich all the data, synchronize for different channels, and activate the products across web, app, store and more. Bokusgruppen selected their PIM based on a Performance & Load test with 20 million products and many simultaneous users. It showed that Bizzkit PIM was the most suitable PIM that could meet all Bokusgruppen's needs for a modern digital commerce solution and serve as the cornerstone for their new solution.
