The Pimcore Digital Commerce Platform is closely connected to the Pimcore Customer Data Platform (CDP). Here you can manage and analyze all customer data and information on customer activities and lay the foundation for behavioral targeting – that is, for behavior-specific marketing automations and real-time personalization. Pimcore is, therefore, the ideal tool if you want to optimize your marketing activities.
-
Pimcore permite Headless Commerce
The Pimcore Digital Commerce Platform supports the headless commerce approach, which is becoming increasingly popular in e-commerce. “Headless” means that the frontend and backend can be edited separately from each other without having to change the entire software architecture. For example, with the Pimcore Digital Commerce Platform, you can change the shop look without having to touch the backend. At the same time, Pimcore guarantees efficient data exchange between all components and can be connected to other company systems or external, third-party applications via API interfaces.
