Why data quality matters in e-commerce
In the fast-paced world of e-commerce, data quality is paramount. Poor data can lead to a host of issues, from incorrect product listings to unhappy customers. Imagine ordering a red jumper and receiving a blue one instead. Frustrating, right? This is where data quality comes into play. Ensuring that product information is accurate, consistent, and up-to-date is crucial for maintaining customer trust and satisfaction.
Here at iWeb, we understand the importance of data quality. With our 29 years of e-commerce experience, we’ve seen firsthand how high-quality data can transform an online store. Our expert solution architects work tirelessly to ensure that your product information is top-notch, helping you avoid costly mistakes and keep your customers happy.

This is particularly useful for businesses looking to expand their reach beyond the UK. With Akeneo PIM, you can easily manage product information in different languages and currencies, ensuring a seamless shopping experience for your international customers.
Another key feature is its robust data validation rules. These rules help ensure that all product information meets your specific requirements before it’s published. This means fewer errors and more accurate product listings. At iWeb, we’ve seen how these features can make a real difference for UK businesses, helping them improve data quality and boost sales.

Real-world examples of improved data quality
Let’s take a look at some real-world examples of how improved data quality can benefit your business. One of our clients, a leading UK-based retailer, was struggling with inconsistent product information across their sales channels. This led to customer complaints and lost sales. By implementing Akeneo PIM, we were able to centralise their product information and ensure consistency across all channels. The result? A significant reduction in customer complaints and a noticeable increase in sales.
Another example is a B2B wholesale business that was dealing with outdated product information. This made it difficult for their customers to find the products they needed, leading to lost sales. By integrating Akeneo PIM with their existing systems, we were able to ensure that all product information was accurate and up-to-date. This not only improved the customer experience but also boosted sales and customer satisfaction.
Challenges and solutions in maintaining data quality
Maintaining data quality can be challenging, especially as your business grows. One of the biggest challenges is ensuring that all product information is accurate and up-to-date. This can be particularly difficult if you’re managing a large number of products across multiple sales channels. However, with the right tools and processes in place, it’s possible to overcome these challenges.
At iWeb, we’ve helped numerous businesses tackle these challenges head-on. Our expert solution architects can help you implement robust data validation rules and processes to ensure that your product information is always accurate and up-to-date. We also offer ongoing support to help you maintain data quality as your business grows.
Future trends in PIM and data quality
The world of PIM and data quality is constantly evolving. One of the key trends we’re seeing is the increasing use of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning. These technologies can help automate many of the tasks involved in managing product information, making it easier to maintain data quality. For example, AI can be used to automatically detect and correct errors in product information, saving you time and effort.
Another trend is the growing importance of product experience management (PXM). PXM goes beyond traditional PIM by focusing on the overall customer experience. This includes everything from the quality of product information to the way it’s presented to customers. At iWeb, we’re at the forefront of these trends, helping our clients stay ahead of the curve and maintain high data quality.
