    Salsify vs. Syndigo:
    Which PXM Solution Is Right for Your Business?

    Explore your product experience management (PXM) solution options, and compare Salsify vs. Syndigo to discover which PXM software is right for your business.

    Salsify

    Salsify’s unified Product Experience Management platform is specifically built to enable you to manage content distribution for your brand to each downstream channel with speed, agility, and efficiency.

    Organically built from the ground up, Salsify is engineered for the era of agentic commerce, helping you conquer the digital shelf by getting you to market faster, reducing costs, uniting your teams, and so much more.

    Salsify’s unified approach drives stronger automation outcomes, deeper AI integrations, faster innovation cycles, and more powerful workflow management than any other PXM vendor can provide.

    Syndigo

    Syndigo, another PXM vendor, has similar solutions to Salsify, but takes a different approach to solving brand challenges. Built through acquisition, Syndigo’s offerings comprise more than 20 distinct point solutions, data pools, and creation services.

    Where Salsify’s PXM network is built on openness, automation, and modern connection frameworks, Syndigo’s is built on legacy, exclusive relationships, and outdated operating models. Syndigo’s approach means that brands’ control and speed are limited when publishing. 

     

    Syndigo Acquires 1WorldSync: What This Means for Brands

    Syndigo’s acquisition of 1WorldSync has created a lot of uncertainty in the market and has already led to frustrations across their shared customers. While the company has publicly stated that it plans to maintain both platforms, Syndigo has already started the process of consolidating systems and forcing customers to migrate their data from 1WorldSync to the Syndigo data pool.

    This is a financially motivated move that causes significant disruption to 1WorldSync customers. This was a large acquisition, funded primarily by debt, and there is pressure for Syndigo to consolidate customer contracts, reconcile systems, and cut operating expenses to meet financial objectives. Combining teams, systems, and processes would likely require a multi-year integration effort, stalling innovation and diminishing Syndigo's ability to support customers.

    Retail Network: Salsify vs. Syndigo

    A major misconception is that you have to use Syndigo to reach certain retailers. That was true in the past, but not anymore. Most retailers have moved away from this model of exclusivity to one that prioritizes openness and choice.

    Why did retailers make this move? It allows higher-quality content to flow faster and more reliably between brands and retailers, resulting in a better overall end-consumer experience.

    As a brand, this gives you the freedom to choose the platform that best meets your needs rather than be forced to choose a vendor based on retailer restrictions.

    Salsify Offers More Flexibility

    Data my way? Your way? Which way? Syndigo’s platform is tightly wound around retailer requirements, which means you have to input your data in many different variations with limited reuse and connectivity across channels.

    Salsify provides superior flexibility and mapping capabilities, allowing you to model and manage your data in a way that makes sense to your organization — all while maximizing reuse and consistency across every downstream channel.

    This flexibility helps you create a system of record that drives scale and repeatability, rather than squandering your time inputting data in lots of different places with limited connection or traceability. 

    Salsify Offers More Automation

    Salsify PXM is a unified platform, which means everything within Salsify is built to work together seamlessly. You can leverage more powerful automation tooling, formula-driven data transformation, in-app collaboration, and AI-powered workflows to drive unmatched speed and efficiency in your PXM processes.

    None of this is possible without the unified foundation that Salsify is built upon.

     

    Salsify Offers More Control

    Salsify believes that brands have the best content — and your content should remain in your control.

    Rather than try to control the data flow between brands and retailers, Salsify empowers you with tools, automation, and deep retailer connectivity. You also maintain full ownership over your data, including the creative rights and when, where, and how it’s published.

    Salsify Offers More Innovation

    Salsify has a proven track record of building and delivering innovative new solutions to the market, rather than just acquiring point solutions.

    Since Salsify PXM is organically built on one code base, there’s no integration debt, freeing up research and development (R&D) time to focus on innovation — not integration.

    And as a profitable, debt-free company, Salsify can invest more in R&D and customer success programs than other vendors in the space.
