Less hassle.
More control over your catalog.

Updating 87 files due to a price change. Waiting three days for a single banner. Manually checking stock information for printing.
As a catalog manager, you recognize this immediately. The pressure on your team is growing, but the tools you have – PIM, DAM, CMS
– don’t always solve the problem. On the contrary, they sometimes create even more work.

FAQs

Find answers to the most frequently asked questions about our services.

What exactly is DDPS, and what does it do for us?

DDPS – short for Dynamic Data Publishing Suite – is a technology that brings your product data and visual content together to create ready-to-use communication materials. It connects directly to systems such as PIM, DAM, or ERP and automatically generates publications for print, e-commerce, or digital campaigns from that data. This allows you to publish faster, more consistently, and with fewer errors – even with tight deadlines or many product variants. More information about DDPS can be found here.

We already have a PIM and DAM. Why do we need DDPS?

Exactly. PIM and DAM are powerful silos, but they often don’t talk to each other – let alone to printing systems or marketing tools. DDPS ensures that your data and images automatically end up in the right place and in the right format. No double work.

What does a DAM actually solve in practice?

A good DAM system ensures that you never have to search for the right image or version again. It links visual assets to products, automatically makes the right formats available, and prevents incorrect or outdated files in your communications. More information about DAM can be found here.

Can we easily integrate it with our existing tools?

Yes. DDPS has been developed to work with your existing systems, not to replace them. Our experts will ensure a smooth connection with your current PIM, DAM, ERP, CMS, or even design software such as InDesign.

How much time will this save us?

That depends on your situation, but customers often save dozens of hours per month. Think of fewer manual corrections, faster revision rounds, and avoiding duplicate work. Time-to-market is also noticeably shorter.

How does this help with multilingual publications?

DDPS takes language versions into account. It automatically links the correct translation of texts and assets to the right products or markets. You avoid errors and don’t have to rebuild everything from scratch for a different language.

Is this only useful for print, or also for digital channels?

This certainly applies to digital as well. Whether you are designing banners, creating animations, or updating product feeds, DDPS ensures that your content is accurate—regardless of the channel. Print, web shop, social media, email… all from the same reliable source.

So should we work less with agencies?

That’s up to you, but many customers prefer to keep more control thanks to DDPS and a good DAM. You don’t have to go through as many rounds of corrections, email files back and forth, or outsource tasks that you can do faster in-house.

How soon can we get started with this?

That depends on your current setup. But we always start by exploring your processes and systems. We then build a solution tailored to your current needs, with room for future growth.
