It consists of a modular software architecture that uses leading development frameworks, such as the Symfony project and the package management Composer based on a "best-of-breed" approach.

The architecture uses the conventions of object-oriented software development, taking into account the MVC (Model View Controller) design pattern.

Pimcore includes more than 40 data components and is compatible with classification systems such as ECLASS (formerly styled as eCl@ss) and GS1.

CMS functionalities are based on the media-neutral management of data and the support of the single-source and multi-channel publishing principle.

Pimcore can therefore be used to create and manage cross-media and cross-channel content that can be consumed on digital devices (desktop, mobile, tablet) as well as offline at POS and in print.

DAM functionalities include centralized management, classification and conversion of digital media in any format and size.

The Pimcore platform combines PIM, CMS, DAM and e-commerce in a single open source application, positioning itself as a system solution for consolidating IT landscapes.
