PIM for BigCommerce

Your BigCommerce catalog deserves a single source of truth—not hundreds of spreadsheets.

StrikeTru helps manufacturers, distributors, wholesalers, and retailers centralize product information using Akeneo Enterprise Edition while seamlessly publishing accurate, enriched, channel-ready products into BigCommerce through our proven connector and implementation expertise.

Why BigCommerce Needs a PIM

Growing catalogs eventually outgrow native product management.

BigCommerce is an excellent commerce platform, but it was never designed to become the master repository for enterprise product information. As product catalogs expand across multiple brands, storefronts, countries, and marketplaces, managing products directly inside BigCommerce becomes increasingly time-consuming and error-prone.

Organizations commonly struggle with:

Product data spread across ERP systems, spreadsheets, supplier catalogs, and marketing teams

Slow manual imports and exports

Duplicate product information across multiple storefronts

Inconsistent product descriptions and attributes

Large catalog updates requiring repetitive manual work

Poor governance over product ownership

Difficulty managing international catalogs and localized content

Akeneo Enterprise + BigCommerce
