Scaling

The catalog keeps growing Search and bulk edits stay fast.

Server-side search across the whole range, imports that take a supplier's full catalog in one go, and bulk edits that run on a filtered selection.

  • Server-side search, filter, sort and paging
  • Files, feeds, FTP, URLs and the extension
  • Bulk edits with a preview first

Key features

  • Search that does not slow down

    Search, filters, sorting and paging all run on the server, so a page of results costs the same at any catalog size.

  • Whole supplier ranges at once

    CSV, Excel and XML files, recurring supplier feeds, a TechData FTP connection, a webshop URL, or the browser extension.

  • One edit, a whole selection

    Bulk operations apply a change to everything the filter matched, and show the result before anything is saved.

Where growth hurts

Old tools break at fifty thousand products

Nothing breaks loudly. The table gets slower, onboarding a supplier takes a week, and nobody notices completeness slipping until a channel rejects a batch.

  • Everything is loaded in the browser

    A table that fetches the whole catalog in order to filter it is fine right up until the catalog outgrows the tab.

    Result: search, filter, sort and paging happen on the server.

  • Every new supplier is a project

    Suppliers name their columns differently, so onboarding one is a mapping exercise before it is anything else.

    Result: the mapping is done once per supplier and reused for every update.

  • Quality decays quietly

    Ten new products a week with one missing field is invisible in a list view, and very visible six months later.

    Result: a score per product and a view of which slice is incomplete.

How it works

Absorb the growth, then keep it clean

Three moves, and the second one is what makes the third possible.

  1. 01

    Take the whole range in

    Import a CSV, Excel or XML file, connect a supplier feed or the TechData FTP connection and pick only the categories you sell, paste a webshop URL, or capture pages with the browser extension.

    The range is in the catalog with its attributes in real fields.

  2. 02

    Find the slice you mean

    Describe the selection in plain language or build the conditions yourself: missing EAN, one brand, one category, under a quality score.

    A selection you can act on instead of a list you scroll.

  3. 03

    Change it in one action

    Bulk operations apply the change to everything the filter matched, with a preview of the result first. AI enrichment and translation take the same selection.

    One action instead of one product at a time.

What holds at size

What keeps a big catalog fast

None of this is a setting you switch on later; it is how the catalog works from the first import.

  • Server-side everything

    Search, filters, sorting and pagination run on the server, so the browser only ever holds one page of products.

  • Files and feeds

    CSV, Excel and XML imports with the column mapping proposed for you, plus supplier feeds that run again on a schedule.

  • TechData over FTP

    Pull the distributor's catalog straight from their FTP server and select only the categories you actually sell.

  • Sources with no feed

    Paste a webshop URL and the pagination is walked for you, or capture pages with the browser extension when a site blocks servers.

  • Bulk operations

    Price, status, categories, attributes and text clean-ups applied to a whole selection, with a preview before saving.

  • Quality rules

    Score every product against the fields you require, so you can see which part of the catalog is not ready to publish.

Finding things

Describe the selection instead of scrolling

Filters are how you address a big catalog: say what you are looking for, or build the conditions, and the result is what every bulk action runs on.

  • Plain-language filtering

    Type what you mean and the conditions are built for you, then edit them by hand when they are not quite right.

  • Presets for the usual problems

    One click for the selections you keep making: missing images, no EAN, empty descriptions.

  • The filter is the selection

    Bulk edits, enrichment and exports all take everything the filter matched, including more than one page of it.

The typed sentence becomes the condition rows underneath it, so you can check what it actually matched before running anything on the result.

Quality at size

See which products are not ready

A score per product, rolled up across the catalog, so you can tell whether the last ten thousand products landed complete or just landed fast.

Field health is the column that pays: it names the field missing across the catalog, which turns a review queue into one bulk action.

Yes. Searching, filtering, sorting and pagination all run server-side, so the products table returns a page of results at the same speed whether you have a thousand products or far more. The browser never holds the whole catalog, which is what makes the difference at size.

Import a CSV, Excel or XML file, connect a supplier feed, or use the TechData integration to pull product data straight from their FTP server, picking only the categories you actually sell. Every route goes through a mapping step, so the supplier's column names never become your field names.

Paste a webshop URL and WISEPIM walks the pagination and extracts each product, or install the browser extension for Chrome, Edge or Firefox and import from the page you already have open, which also covers sites that block server-side requests. What it cannot do is get behind a portal you have no account for.

Yes. Bulk operations apply one change to a whole selection, from stock and categories to attributes and lifecycle stage, and show a preview of the result before anything is saved. The selection can be the rows you ticked or everything the current filter matches, which is usually more than one page.

Data quality rules score every product against the requirements you define, so you can see which slice of the catalog is incomplete instead of reviewing products one by one. The score is a measure of what is filled and valid; it does not judge whether the copy is any good, which is what enrichment and review are for.
