PIMs compared

When demonstrating then PIM capabilities of our software we quite often hear people saying things like 'So, I get a complete PIM when I start working with your solution. Why are there other companies that develop just a PIM and sell their solution for a price much and much higher than yours?' 

By other companies they usually mean Perfion or Allium. And why these comments usually go directly into the direction of pricing is because of the ridiculous prices of these solutions. To be honest, we don't compare them every month, so there might be something super cool in the last version they have release. But, besides that, no, there isn't much difference in functionality when you compare all solutions in terms of web item data management. What those others do have, is some features for print catalogs, but as print is totally not our focus area (we think print is dead anyway) we didn't bother to put in those kind of things. And still, if you just want to export our PIM data for whatever purpose (could be print) you can of course do that.
