Most Scalable DAM I've Experienced
What do you like best about the product?
The customization to support many different brands. I was pitched by many DAMs that wouldn't allow me to make different portals with different branding... claiming those would additional 'DAMs'. Not with Canto. I can make a portal to support as many brands as I want without having add-ons!
It's super easy to share files across different platforms, and their resizing/cropping/compression functions are super helpful.

What do you dislike about the product?
Their latest "AI Search" functionality is lackluster. It doesn't feel like the big upgrade, as I expecting the ability to search by meta data AND asset content. However, I'll run a search for a product from a specific brand (which is identified via a custom field), and still get assets from other brands. This is something I expect to improve, but not impressed with it's current state.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Allowing me to manage version control easily. It's helpful to have a north star asset with a URL that lives in different places-- website, emails, customer portals. Being able to update it in one place and impact across the board is a huge time saver!
First Year with Canto
What do you like best about the product?
The ease of searchability has been a game changer when it comes to finding content. We are easily able to look through tagged content, and the smart tagging has helped us as well.
The increased organization has been a huge help for our team as well, as we're using the platform daily. This has saved a lot of time spent in the platform.

What do you dislike about the product?
There are a number of times that imported photos don't keep the "approved" status and will change back to "pending." This makes it frustrating when sending links to clients that do not have approval to see pending photos & our team has to spend more time going back through and doing the work again.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Organization and searchability

Canto: Our main repository for digital assets three years on.
What do you like best about the product?
Canto has a robust feature set which is easy to access for most people. A little hand holding is sometimes neccessary for new users, but for the most part I feel that it's fairly intuitive.
What do you dislike about the product?
To acheive the fullest potential, one must carefully plan out ones implenentaiton. I feel as though we missed that mark early on, leaving us the play clean up later. Our use case is still evolving and I find myself wondering if we could be more efficient in terms of how we leverage the platform.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The biggest probnlem we needed it to solve is sharing assets with other team members. It does this admirably.
Canto makes sharing assets very easy
What do you like best about the product?
It is very easy to create standard libraries to share assets with others and not have to constantly create Dropbox or OneDrive folders to share things.
What do you dislike about the product?
Moving assets from one folder to another is difficult. It wants to simply assign them to the second folder and I wanted to eliminate the first folder and restructure. I found that difficult.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Provides an easy way to share assets.
On-boarding and support is an A+
What do you like best about the product?
The on-boarding was very helpful and the recording of the on-boarding sessions.
What do you dislike about the product?
The tutorials on youTube need to be updated.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Ease of finding photos. Ease of sharing assets.
Great Upgrade from Traditional Content Management but Data Side Has a Lot of Room for Improvement
What do you like best about the product?
The team has been very knowledgeable and the training series proves to help ease some of the implementation jitters our team has. There is a learning curve with moving from a regular hard drive on a server to Canto but we are excited to use Canto's other features.
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish the PIM side is more robust and more customize-able. The set-up of products is a little more complicated than expected but nothing too hard is you're familiar with spreadsheets.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It takes on a huge chunk of a Catalog Manager's role in the company. It allows team members access to content they normally would have to ask someone to send them or get access to.
Effortless Photo Management with Impressive Features
What do you like best about the product?
I like how Canto makes it much easier to receive photos from photographers and share them in a modern way. I appreciate that Canto continues to improve and add new features, and I find the facial recognition, style guides, and customizing portals to be really great features. These tools make it easier to identify athletes and share photos in a visually appealing way.
What do you dislike about the product?
I do not like the new library view and happy the option to use the old view is still available

Very Robust Platform with Many Applicatons
What do you like best about the product?
Portals is a great feature - easy to manage users and content.
What do you dislike about the product?
Smart tags could be improved. Maybe there's a way to feed the AI with references, instructions and guidelines up front to improve functionality. With our products smart tags have been mostly a miss, it's be nice to automate tagging fully vs manual input.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
1. Centralizing and standardizing access to all approved documents and assets. AS our business has not be fully integrated, this is key. Before Canto, documents and assets were scattered across multiple Sharepoint sites and hard drives. 2. Process optimization - approving, releasing and updating content, with stakeholders across various teams. Version control is also important here. 3. Portals for various types of users/consumers, both internal and external.
One Click Away
What do you like best about the product?
I like the ability to store all of our professional photography, videos, and creative assets in one place where my creative team as easy access to use when needed or to look at stored content for new ideas for projects we have in queue. Canto is extremely easy to use and access.
I use and rely on Canto everyday to assist in my work and provide support to our internal clients on a whole range of projects. The creative stored is implemented in our marketing campaigns, brand campaigns, email drip campaigns, and general marketing of programs.
I haven't had many issues using Canto, but when needed the customer service team is accessible and quick to respond. I appreciate having a team to trouble shoot when needed.

What do you dislike about the product?
I honestly have not had any issues with Canto. And, if I did, I know my contact will take care of it quickly.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Having all of our creative assets under one umbrella is a huge benefit and a time saver when working on tight deadlines.
