History

Centric Software was founded in 2004.[4] The company began as a product lifecycle management vendor, developing configurable out-of-the-box products for the fashion industry, designed to support users without custom coding.[5]

In 2010, Centric introduced its first mobile application, Capture it, which uploads images to the PLM system.[6]

In 2013, the company developed The Adobe Connect tool, that allows designers to use Adobe Illustrator while staying integrated with the PLM system.[7]

In 2017 Centric’s REST API launched, allowing integration between Centric PLM and external systems such as ERP and digital asset management.[8] The same year, it launched an artificial intelligence powered PLM tool, AI Image Search.[9]

In 2018, Centric began to add 3D connectors that integrate Centric PLM with applications including Browzwear, Optitex and CLO 3D.

In 2019, Centric launched PLM for original equipment manufacturer and original design manufacturer manufacturers.

Centric Software acquired retail planning provider, Armonica Retail in 2021. This was followed by the acquisition of market intelligence software company StyleSage in 2022 and the predictive pricing software provider aifora, in 2023. Most recently, it acquired both Contentserv[10] and ShoppingFeed,[11] a PIM and DAM platform.
