DCatalog
What DCatalog is
DCatalog is a cloud platform for creating, publishing, and managing digital catalogs. It converts PDFs into interactive HTML5 flipbooks with videos, links, and custom animations. Its PDF Generator creates branded PDFs and online product catalogs from CSV product data. Catalogs can connect with ecommerce systems so readers add products to carts and check out. For measurement, DCatalog supports Google Analytics and Adobe Analytics and provides a dashboard for performance, sales, and conversions. Security options include password protection, login-gated embedding, and connection to an existing SSO system. Integrations cover ecommerce platforms, PIM systems, marketing automation, social media, and custom APIs. The REST API handles batch uploads, design settings, viewer publishing, and publication management. A Virtual Library Rack organizes documents with categories and cross-search. Select costs $29 a month and Elite costs $49 a month, both billed monthly with per-active-link licensing and unlimited uploads. DCatalog was founded in 2008 and is headquartered in San Diego, California.
