Pimcore Customer Management Framework

Pimcore manages any kind of data: unstructured digital assets and structured content. The most common structured content is product data and everything related to products, like categories, technologies, and brands. The built-in E-Commerce Framework supports building e-commerce applications and managing transactional data like orders. Besides products and transactions, the third major group of structured data is customer data.

The Customer Management Framework (CMF) for Pimcore adds functionality for customer data management, segmentation, personalization, and marketing automation. It aggregates customer data and user profiles, enriches data, links social profiles, builds audience segments, triggers events, personalizes experiences, executes marketing automation, and more.

Like Pimcore itself and the E-Commerce Framework, CMF is a framework for developers to build customer management solutions, tightly integrated into Pimcore's core functionality.

  • Customer Data Management based on Pimcore Data Objects.
