Webinar: When Product Data and Design Don’t Align - Fixing the Root Cause of Catalog Delays

A simple product update should not trigger changes across spreadsheets, source files, layouts, and multiple catalog versions. Yet for many teams, even a new price, image, or specification creates another round of copying, checking, and correcting.

On September 15, Factory and Pimcore are hosting a free live webinar on how companies can connect product data with design and catalog workflows to reduce manual work, prevent late-stage errors, and make catalog delivery more predictable.

• Date: September 15, 2026
• Time: 11:00 AM EST
• Language: English
• Format: Live webinar with a 15-minute Q&A
• Registration: Free, with registration required

What You Will Learn

Catalog production rarely slows down because of one major issue. Delays usually build up across disconnected files, repeated updates, manual checks, and corrections made late in the process.

During the webinar, we will examine where catalog production slows down and why these issues become more visible as product ranges, channels, and update requirements grow.

You will learn how to:

• Identify where your current catalog production process is slowing down
• Understand why simple updates to prices, specifications, or images create repeated manual work
• Manage product data so that changes are made once instead of in multiple places
• Connect product data with design and catalog workflows
• Reduce manual effort and avoid costly rework
• Prevent last-minute corrections and errors discovered too late
• Keep catalog delivery on track as the number of products and channels grows
• Build a more predictable and scalable catalog production process

The speakers will also share practical examples from companies that have already changed the way they manage catalog production.

As part of the session, we will demonstrate how product data and assets managed in Pimcore can be used directly in Adobe InDesign. Factory’s Pimcore to Adobe InDesign Integration gives designers access to current product information inside their existing design environment while allowing them to retain control over the layout.

Meet the Speakers

The webinar brings together Pimcore’s product data expertise with Factory’s experience in developing and implementing catalog production workflows:

Who Should Attend?

This webinar is intended for teams responsible for product information, catalog production, content, design, e-commerce, and the systems connecting these areas.

Whether you are responsible for the data, the layout, the production process, or the supporting technology, the session will help you understand where catalog delays begin and how a more connected workflow can address them.

Does This Sound Familiar?

• Catalog production becomes difficult to control when:
• Product information is stored across several systems and files
• Design teams receive incomplete or outdated information
• Changes to prices, specifications, or images must be repeated in multiple places
• Product data and catalog layouts are managed separately
• Errors are discovered only during final reviews
• Teams spend more time fixing, checking, and coordinating than delivering
• Deadlines become harder to meet as the number of products and channels grows
• A process that works for one catalog becomes difficult to maintain at scale

The webinar will show how companies can address the source of these problems by creating a structured connection between product data, assets, and design workflows.

Join Factory and Pimcore on September 15 to learn how to reduce manual catalog work, avoid repeated corrections, and create a more predictable production process. The webinar is free, but registration is required. If you cannot attend the live session, register anyway and you will receive the recording afterwards.
