Looking for a Channel Pilot Alternative? There You Go

Are you looking for a reliable Channel Pilot alternative that offers not only robust feed management for advertising channels but also advanced marketplace integrations, dynamic pricing, and catalogue intelligence across all digital sales channels?

Unlike Channel Pilot – a Germany-based platform that primarily emphasizes product feed distribution and price comparison marketing – Lengow offers a broader multichannel solution with a modular suite composed of NetMarkets (marketplaces), NetAmplify (advertising feeds), NetRivals (price intelligence & competitor monitoring), and NetMonitor (catalogue availability monitoring). This enables brands and retailers to centralize their strategy across acquisition, performance, and distribution channels in one platform.

Lengow currently supports over 1,800 channel integrations – including marketplaces, Google Shopping, Meta Ads, affiliate networks, and price comparison engines. Our platform also provides in-house Professional Services (PS) teams to assist with onboarding, custom integrations, and strategic consulting (available in 6 languages), so you won’t need external agencies for support.
