bimco Content vs Manufacturer Content
Not all content is created equal and not all manufacturer content is bad or unnecessary. We can however say that using bimco's generic content means you're using something tailored for documentation, useability, flexibility and file performance.
This means you can throw in a generic item and update it when required rather than trying to hunt down a family every time an item is updated which may not swap out so well.
- A single bimco family can replace multiple variations of other manufacturer families which are similar in nature
- Manufacturer content is often over modelled and follows its own standards and may not schedule, tag, display or be flexible
- Manufacturer content overwhelms libraries and creates a paradox of choice for users
