Y1 supports companies in the implementation, migration, and optimization of the Centric PXM platform – including existing systems that were originally based on Contentserv.
Contentserv became part of Centric Software in 2024.
The formerly independent PIM/PXM solution is now the core of the Centric PXM platform – one of the most modern enterprise platforms for product experience management.
For brands, retailers, and manufacturers, this means:
Continuation & further development of technology
Stronger industry solutions (FMCG, retail, DIY, manufacturing)
More integrations & scaling options
Unified PXM ecosystem
As an official Centric Software partner, Y1 accompanies both new Centric PXM projects and existing Contentserv installations that need to be modernized or migrated.
