Understanding Data Quality

The Data Quality section helps you measure how complete, accurate, and ready your product data is for your sales channels. WISEPIM calculates a comprehensive quality score for your entire catalog based on four key domains: completeness, channel readiness, SEO and discoverability, and conversion potential. A higher data quality score directly correlates with better search rankings, higher conversion rates, and fewer product returns.
You need to have products imported into your project before data quality metrics become available. If you see an empty state, import your products first.

The Quality Score

At the top of the Data Quality page, the hero metric displays your overall quality score on a 0-100 scale. This score is a weighted average of four domain scores, and it updates automatically as you improve your product data. Alongside the overall score, you can see:
  • Total products in your catalog
  • Products needing attention — the number of products with high-priority issues
  • Issue breakdown — counts of high, medium, and low severity issues
  • Content coverage — average percentage of key fields filled across your catalog
  • Score trend — whether your quality has improved or declined compared to the previous period
The quality score uses a letter-grade system (A+ through F). You can customize the grade thresholds in your project settings under Data Quality Scoring to match your team’s standards.

Domain Score Breakdown

Your overall quality score is composed of four domains, each evaluating a different aspect of your product data:

Completeness

Measures how thoroughly your core product fields are filled in — titles, descriptions, images, pricing, categories, and brand information.

Channel Readiness

Evaluates whether your products meet the data requirements for each of your connected sales channels (Shopify, Magento, WooCommerce, etc.).

SEO & Discoverability

Checks meta titles, meta descriptions, and keyword optimization to ensure your products are findable in search engines.

Conversion Potential

Assesses whether your product data includes the elements proven to drive purchases — rich descriptions, multiple images, and compelling content.
Each domain score is visualized in both a radar chart (for a quick shape comparison against your targets) and a bar breakdown so you can pinpoint exactly where improvements are needed.

Visualizations and Charts

The Data Quality page provides a rich set of visualizations to help you understand your catalog health:

Grade Distribution

A chart showing how your products are distributed across quality grades (A+ through F). This helps you understand how many products are in excellent shape versus how many need work.

Domain Trend Comparison

Track how each of the four domain scores has changed over time. You can see whether completeness is improving while SEO stays flat, for example, and prioritize accordingly.

Historical Score Chart

View your overall quality score trend over your selected time range (7 days, 30 days, 90 days, or 12 months). Use this to verify that your data improvement efforts are making a measurable impact.

Content Coverage Funnel

See the percentage of products that have each key field filled in — descriptions, short descriptions, meta titles, meta descriptions, categories, images, brand, and price. This funnel view highlights where the biggest gaps are.
If you notice a sharp drop in your quality score, check the Change Trigger Impact chart. It identifies whether the drop was caused by a bulk import, manual edits, or automated updates, helping you quickly find the root cause.

Field Coverage and Gaps

The Field Coverage Matrix gives you a detailed view of which fields are populated across your product families. This is especially useful when you have multiple product types with different attribute requirements. You can see at a glance:
  • Which product families have the lowest coverage for specific fields
  • Where your biggest data gaps are
  • Which fields to prioritize filling in for the highest score impact

SEO and Conversion Deep Dive

A dedicated breakdown shows your SEO and conversion-specific metrics, including character limit compliance for meta titles and descriptions, and which conversion-driving elements (images, rich descriptions) are present across your catalog.

Channel Readiness Matrix

If you sell on multiple platforms, this matrix shows which of your enabled sales channels your products are ready for. It highlights missing fields or data quality issues that would prevent successful listing on each platform.

Identifying and Fixing Issues

Quick Wins

The Quick Wins section surfaces the highest-impact, lowest-effort improvements you can make. Each suggestion includes:
  • Impact level (high, medium, low) and effort estimate
  • Number of products affected
  • Potential score increase if you complete the fix
  • Step-by-step next actions to resolve the issue
Start with “high impact, low effort” quick wins for the fastest quality score improvement. Adding missing product images and generating meta descriptions are typically the most impactful first steps.

Products Needing Attention

A sortable table lists individual products with data quality issues, grouped by severity. You can navigate directly to any product to fix its issues.

Improvement Roadmap

Based on your current score, the Improvement Roadmap lays out a phased plan to reach your target score. It considers your content coverage gaps, issue counts, and domain scores to suggest a prioritized sequence of improvements.

Tracking Progress

Progress Milestones

Visual milestones mark your journey from your starting score toward your target. As you cross each threshold, you unlock the next milestone.

Improvement Activity Calendar

A calendar heatmap shows your daily data improvement activity. Days with more changes appear in darker shades, helping you maintain momentum.

Issue Resolution Velocity

Track how quickly your team is resolving data quality issues over time. This metric helps you forecast when you will reach your target quality level.

Achievements

Earn achievements as you hit data quality milestones — a motivating way to track your team’s progress.

Family Score Comparison

If you organize products into families (e.g., “Electronics,” “Clothing”), the Family Score Comparison lets you compare average quality and completion scores across families. This helps you identify which product categories need the most attention.

Benchmarking

See how your catalog quality compares to others in your industry category. The benchmarking section shows your percentile ranking and how far above or below the category average you are. The Data Quality section has three sub-pages accessible from the sidebar:
1

Overview

The main dashboard with all scores, charts, and insights described above.
2

Fix Issues

A focused view for resolving individual product data issues one by one or in bulk.
3

Field Health

A detailed breakdown of field-level coverage and health across your entire catalog.
Data is loaded once when you enter the Data Quality section and shared across all three sub-pages, so navigating between tabs is instant with no extra loading time.

Customizing Quality Scoring

You can adjust how quality scores are calculated in your project settings:
  • Domain weights — Control how much each domain (completeness, channel readiness, SEO, conversion) contributes to the overall score.
  • Grade thresholds — Define the score ranges for each letter grade.
  • Core field weights — Specify which fields are most important for completeness scoring.
  • Enabled platforms — Choose which sales channels are considered for channel readiness scoring.
  • SEO character limits — Set your preferred character ranges for meta titles and descriptions.
