It has been a big year at Akeneo.
We’ve expanded what Akeneo Product Cloud can do. We’ve brought new technologies and expertise into the company. We’ve introduced agentic AI capabilities designed to change how product teams work.
We’ve continued accelerating our presence in the U.S, and we’ve worked with brands including LG Electronics USA, Tiffany & Co., Sweaty Betty, and more to transform their product operations.
Now, there’s another recognition to share.
Gartner evaluates providers based on Ability to Execute and Completeness of Vision. For us, being positioned as a Leader in the inaugural Gartner® Magic Quadrant™ for Product Information Management Solutions is an important moment to us, but it is not one we see as ours alone.
We feel it reflects years of collaboration with customers who challenge us to solve increasingly complex product-information problems, partners who extend and strengthen the Akeneo ecosystem, and teams across Akeneo who keep pushing the Product Cloud forward.
The first Gartner® Magic Quadrant™ for Product Information Management Solutions marks a significant moment for the PIM category itself, but for Akeneo, it also gives us an opportunity to recognize the ecosystem that has helped shape where we are today.
Our customers bring the real-world complexity: global catalogs, intricate data models, thousands of attributes, multiple markets and channels, changing regulations, and increasingly AI-driven commerce experiences.
Our partners bring the implementation expertise, integrations, services, and market knowledge that help turn technology into real business outcomes.
And that collaboration shows up in the feedback we receive. Akeneo has a 4.7 out of 5 rating based on 140 customer reviews on Gartner Peer Insights™.
One Engineering Manager in the retail industry shared:
“Akeneo’s flexibility in modeling complex product data is a major strength. The attributes and family structure make it easy to scale and manage large catalogs.”
And a Director of Operations in manufacturing noted:
“From the start, the team engaged in demonstrating Akeneo’s features and how it aligned with our needs and solved our pain points we experienced with the previous platform.”
Their skills, feedback, ambition, and expectations continually shape what we build next.
So, to our customers and partners: thank you. Thank you for challenging us, collaborating with us, and helping us keep raising the bar for what product information can do. We see this milestone as one we share with you.
Our Summer Release introduced Agentic Ziggy, an agentic layer embedded within Akeneo Product Cloud to help teams move from simply managing product information to acting on it.
Customers are already using Ziggy to surface insights, simplify complex updates, and automate time-consuming work. At tectake, for example, Ziggy generated 200 automation rules in minutes, which was work that would previously have taken around two hours manually.
That product momentum is being matched by business momentum.
Akeneo continues to expand across key markets, including the U.S., as more organizations look to product information as a foundation for faster operations, stronger digital experiences, and emerging AI-powered workflows. That growth also creates a valuable feedback loop, helping us sharpen the roadmap and build for the real-world complexity our customers face.
Recognition in the first-ever Gartner® Magic Quadrant™ for Product Information Management Solutions comes at an exciting point in Akeneo’s journey.
This year has already brought strategic acquisitions, new customers, expanded capabilities, and an entirely new agentic layer within Akeneo Product Cloud.
And there is more coming.
Akeneo’s Autumn Release is coming soon, with additional functionality designed to expand what teams can do with their product information and how quickly they can turn it into action.
We’ll have much more to share shortly.
For now, we’re proud to see Akeneo positioned as a Leader in the first-ever Gartner® Magic Quadrant™ for Product Information Management Solutions, and grateful to the customers, partners, and teams who have helped us get here.
