Case Study: Eaton achieves faster, more efficient PIM data migration with InfoZoom

Eaton Electrical Sector - Customer Case Study

Eaton's Electrical Sector faced the challenge of migrating complex product data from an old, German-language PIM database to a new global system with a different data model. Using Excel for the migration of approximately 150,000 items proved to be too time-consuming and inflexible, requiring the team to start over with each data extraction. They required a more agile and powerful tool, leading them to the vendor InfoZoom.

InfoZoom provided a flexible solution, enabling Eaton to create application-specific workflows and templates to map data and reconcile different data types. This allowed the complex migration project to be completed within two years, saving the company a significant amount of time and budget. InfoZoom's versatility also facilitated data quality analysis and became integral to Eaton's agile, scrum-based methodology for handling master data.
