EnterWorks Earns Frost & Sullivan's 2017 Product Leadership Award for its Innovative MDM/PIM Solutions
Sterling, VA (PRWEB) November 14, 2017 -- EnterWorks, a leading provider of Master Data Management (MDM) and Product Information Management (PIM), announced today that Frost & Sullivan recognized it with the 2017 North American Product Leadership Award. Specifically, EnterWorks was highlighted for its innovative EnterWorks Enable™ software solution, which provides a centralized view and repository of extensive product information, master data, digital assets, attributes, and more, for use within the manufacturing and distribution communities and their trading partners.
“Frost & Sullivan expects vendors that provide flexible MDM/PIM software that addresses the aforementioned challenges to secure a leadership position in the market,” said Sankara Narayanan, Senior Industry Analyst, Frost & Sullivan. “EnterWorks is a leading provider of MDM and PIM solutions that is committed to helping manufacturers and distributors gain a competitive advantage through accurate, reliable, high-quality, consistent, and up-to-date product content and data. Their platform also extends into enablement of critical capabilities such as PLM and CPQ.”
Frost & Sullivan analysis found that EnterWorks Enable facilitates collaboration among business silos and across enterprises in an omnichannel B2B2C manner by aggregating, managing, and syndicating product content, allowing companies to enter data through multiple methods. This extends to emerging content sources, such as 3D, that will power virtual and augmented reality applications, but need a central data repository.
The aspects of EnterWorks Enable that deliver the greatest value to customers are exceptional configurability, scalability, flexible deployment options, and speed of implementation.
• Configuration: Enterprise workflow, application interface screen, business and validation rules, as well as data models are all configurable through drag-and-drop modeling tools and graphical displays, allowing users to set up best practice processes and workflows to meet their unique requirements without touching the code. This reduces the total cost of ownership (TCO) because customers do not have to rely on expensive IT resources. The unique virtual data modeling capability of the platform is a critical enabler for its configurability for any targeted vertical.
• Scalability: Whether a company is a small, narrowly focused product specialist or a large, multi-division conglomerate, the platform can be set up specifically to the desired business model and user roles.
• Flexibility and speed: EnterWorks software runs both on the cloud and on-premise; implementation time averages about 90 days. The implementation cost is 30% to 40% less than competing MDM/PIM solutions, and the maintenance cost is 50% to 75% less.
“EnterWorks has strengthened its PIM and MDM position in the manufacturing and distribution communities by its intense focus on key product categories and the corresponding industry sectors in building out its vertical content network approach,” said Sankara Narayanan. “By concentrating on partner ecosystems and data pools associated with verticals such as food and consumer products, industrial and building materials, home and office furnishings, specialty goods, medical/surgical devices, and services industries, EnterWorks delivers a holistic solution bundle to its prospects and existing customers.”
