Brand Protection Software Category Brand protection software helps you to manage online information about your business’ services and products. It enables you to analyze online pricing and product details to ensure data is accurate and in compliance with corporate standards. The platform is utilized by enterprises that partner with resellers, where it is usually harder to control brand and product information on partner sites. Product managers can leverage this solution to track resellers, pinpoint violations, and implement brand policies and rules. Brand protection software is generally a standalone program and it can integrate with e-commerce or pricing products. It is also vital to integrate it with a PIM (product information management) solution to offer pricing and product details. SUMMER 2021 CUSTOMER SUCCESS REPORT Brand Protection Software Category 2
