Eight situations PIM Gate was built for.
A manufacturer with a PIM that nobody outside can use. A wholesaler drowning in supplier spreadsheets. A group consolidating three PIMs. Each scenario below shows the setup, the workflow, the modules involved and an indicative price — so you can see how PIM Gate would fit yours.
These are illustrative scenarios based on typical project situations, not customer stories. Names, figures and systems are representative. Every capability shows its current status.

Configuration and price
The version and modules that typically fit, with the indicative list price and how it adds up.
