Contentserv is named, for the second time, one of Germany's most innovative SMEs
Ermatingen, Switzerland - June 22, 2020 - Letting go of the old and daring to try something new: Innovative medium-sized companies like Contentserv GmbH from Rohrbach are not afraid of change but instead see it as an opportunity. This allowed Contentserv to succeed during the 27th round of the TOP 100 innovation awards. Now the company is officially among the TOP 100 innovators starting on June 19th. During the scientific selection process, the company impressed while being part of the size class B (51 to 200 employees), particularly in the categories "Innovative Processes and Organization" and "Innovation Success". Furthermore, this is the second time Contentserv qualifies as a top innovator.
Contentserv developed a web-based platform for the comprehensive personalization of product content, that automatically adapts product information to consumers, their environment and the channels they use. For instance: Is a potential buyer a man or a woman? do they live in the city or in the country? alone or in a relationship? are they a "millennial"? do they use a mobile phone or a laptop for shopping? Questions like these are highly relevant to the success of product sales, especially now that so much shopping is done practically anonymously over the Internet.
Many developers are working on the further enhancement of this system. The solution is currently used by numerous brand manufacturers and retailers. The two-time top innovator sees further potential for development: "We are investing massively in artificial intelligence and in machine learning systems. This is the path we will be taking for the next three to four years", explains Managing Director Holger Schneider.
However, this Product Experience Platform, which is also offered as "Software as a Service", can do much more: It also standardizes and consolidates internal product information while reducing content costs by up to 50 percent. "We offer a strategically oriented Product Information Management (PIM) solution that allows all product data to be collected at a central location, enriched as required and distributed worldwide - 100 percent up-to-date and always available," explains Managing Director Manuel Dirnhofer.
