Case Study: Akeneo achieves faster product releases and greater agility with Google Cloud Platform

Akeneo Empowering retailers with a single source of truth for product information

Akeneo needed a scalable, secure way to modernize its product information management platform and improve support for retail customers. Using Google Cloud Platform, specifically Google Kubernetes Engine, Akeneo moved from an on-premises setup to a cloud-based SaaS PIM solution.

With Google Cloud Platform, Akeneo sped up release cycles from every six months to every week, improved customer support, and reduced the security burden with ISO 27001-certified infrastructure. The new SaaS offering helped drive growth, contributing to 70% of new contracts, and Akeneo now serves more than 500 enterprise clients, with its Community Edition reaching over 80,000 downloads.
