"Salsify’s new PXM Advance platform exemplifies the impact that AI and automation can have on product experience management," said Heather Hershey, Research Director for IDC’s Worldwide Digital Commerce practice. "Brand manufacturers’ digital commerce strategies must evolve beyond the ‘cold mechanics of technology’ in order to connect with consumers. PXM Advance enables Salsify’s customers to accelerate their PXM operations, driving product experiences on the digital shelf that will capture shoppers’ attention, loyalty, and trust."
