A Useful DAM
What do you like best about the product?
It's difficult to find the right digital asset management (DAM) system for storing photos, but Canto makes it easy. It's not overly complicated, it has a good search functionality and you can mark photos DO NOT USE if they should no longer be used in marketing materials.
What do you dislike about the product?
Not really a downside, but the more work you put into Canto, the easier it is to use. For example, take the time to utilize the full tagging functionality to make it easier to search for photos.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
As a digital marketer, we always need photos to use on social media and in our marketing materials. Canto is the best photo repository I've used in the 10+ years I've been in business. Canto makes it easy to store and search for photos.
Saved me HOURS!!
What do you like best about the product?
I love the smart tagging keyword search. I used to spend hours going through thousands of photos to find one I could use, and now it takes minutes! I wish I knew about this platform years ago.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes I will search a general term like "food" and nothing will come up, but then if I put a specific term like "hamburger", pictures will come up. That can get a little hard, but also I know I can adjust how specific returned search results are, so it's really fine. Also the photos are a bit blurry until I download them, which makes it hard to judge picture quality quickly.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The big thing is time - I am so thankful that I can come up with any photos I need within minutes instead of scrolling through thousands of photos like I used to.
Great organizational tool for the team
What do you like best about the product?
We love using Canto because it makes organizing all of our media files easy. We used to outsource a lot of work because we were a very small team and it got overwhelming having to dive into email to find different Google Drives, WeTransfers, Dropboxes, etc. to find the things we needed. We've since grown our team significantly and onboarding them has never been easier as far as assets go. Assets are tagged and filed, making them super easy to find, resize, download, share - you name it. I can also control who sees what and what is saved.
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish Portals was a little easier to use. There's assets in Folders or Albums that I want retailers to have but rarely all in a particular folder or album. That has prevented us from diving in and setting them up.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It saves not only me, but my entire team, an enormous amount of time. I don't have to dig through emails to find assets that should be available at the click of a button.
Everyday Canto User Review
What do you like best about the product?
The intuitive features and easy filtering to find and organize all of our assets. The ability to segment our internal users has helped tremendously and made our process more efficient.
What do you dislike about the product?
The detailed scroll-down information view of each individual asset could be more readable. All of the text and options displayed could be organized in a more digestible way visually.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Sharing assets with both internal team members and external users with the ability to create restrictions if needed. Less time is wasted on our previous methods, where we would take time to provide access and permissions, make individual documents shareable, and lose documents altogether.
A fantastic digital asset system!
What do you like best about the product?
My favorite part of Canto is the ability to share what I want with whom I want on a university campus!
What do you dislike about the product?
I can't think of anything I dislike. If there was a way to have unlimited space without fear of moving to cold storage, I guess that would be it.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The ability to have all of our digital assets in one place, accessible by our entire team PLUS consumers from our campus has benefitted us in the best way possible.
Canto is a user-friendly experience.

Canto makes asset management so much easier!
What do you like best about the product?
I love how easy it is to set up. So much easier to track assets, manage versions and share information.
What do you dislike about the product?
I find the reporting a little cumbersome. I wish I could set up monthly reports that ran automatically.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
version control, avoid network speed/size restrictions, and creates a self-help environment so I don't have to find things for people constantly.
Better than expected.
What do you like best about the product?
Ease of use. The system moves quick and can be figured out with little background experience.
What do you dislike about the product?
Some areas arn't as intuitive, like editing setting for external links not being in the link section (how things show up for a user, that is). Also, I wish there was an easier way to "present" sections in an album. Curator view is a start but figuring out how to use took a moment and only works if the viewer is in curator mode.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Asset finding and gathering.
Top-of-the-line service with great employees!
What do you like best about the product?
The portals features which is by far the most helpful feature at least to our company.
What do you dislike about the product?
The cost maybe to high for smaller companies.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We built a whole online service platform using Canto. It saved us a ton of time on setup.
