What do you like best about the product?
What I find the most helpful are the portals and the fact that you can create links to share documents. Also different users can have access!
What do you dislike about the product?
The beginning process is because of all the tagging and trying to figure out how to best create your folders and albums for everyone to be able to use.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It's solving me not having to download a lot of files, it's also solving the issue with our sales team of them not asking for tons of request when they have it all in their portal.
No more remembering what folder an asset is in, I love their tagging and keyword system!
What do you like best about the product?
Tagging assets and the preset tags are really helpful so we can easily label products, campaigns, reasons for use, and common items in our assets.
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish there was an easy way to tag people beyond facial recognition. I also don't really understand the permission (approved, pending, etc.)
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Not spending hours searching for certain assets
Great content management tool, could be a bit more user friendly
What do you like best about the product?
Great way to organize content. Can be structured in a way that multiple teams can independently upload/use assets while still having the full library accessible to the whole organization. I am in the system daily and and show both internal and external partners how to use it - it is relatively intuitive.
Smart tags are helpful for more detailed searches in content that hasn't been manually tagged.
Cold storage is a great cost-effective option for old content that is not often used but must be kept.

What do you dislike about the product?
Sharing links cannot be edited after creating, and must be recreated each time something needs to be removed from one.
Adjusting the structure can be time consuming. No way to reorganize all at once, but instead individual folders/albums must be moved one at a time.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Hosting and finding photography and video for use across all our business units is greatly simplified by Canto. It allows for easy upload, search and access for both internal and external users.
I use Canto to find images for marketing purposes.
What do you like best about the product?
I like the fact that other members from our team can upload the images so that everyone has access to them. I also like the keyword search assistance in finding pictures.
What do you dislike about the product?
I sometimes have difficulty finding images through the keyword search if you dont know what someone else titled the image.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I have access to all of our photos across campus to use for different marketing projects.
Great Platform for Managing Digital Assets
What do you like best about the product?
We use Canto to manage our digital assets and to work with customers on custom projects. The platform is reliable and the interface is super intuitive.
What do you dislike about the product?
There is nothing I dislike about the platform.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Prior to Canto, managing our digital assets was difficult and time-consuming. Canto has also added a layer of professionalism with our custom clients that we didn't have before.
Could be great but so far has not been
What do you like best about the product?
I like best the ability to search and tag images. We have a huge database of images that have various ways they could be searched so tagging them is super useful.
What do you dislike about the product?
I dislike the interface and sometimes the amount of options or capabilities can be too overwhelming. It also took almost an entire year to get it onboarded and loaded up and rolled out.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Ideally canto allows us to have a searchable database of images, a single source of truth between all different departments but so far we're not really finding this to be true.
Canto is great as an image repo and finding what you need. lots of tools to use.
What do you like best about the product?
its very easy to tag and find image images.
What do you dislike about the product?
the UI is a bit outdated and can be updated.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
storing a lot of our images and easy to retrieve them when needed.
Easy for creatives and our whole team to use
What do you like best about the product?
I like the ability to upload and download from my phone and my desktop, as well as the ability to easily share links for videos with team members.
What do you dislike about the product?
The UI is a bit clunky: the icons are not as intuitive as they could be. Even after months of using canto I find myself scanning the screen for tools I need most often. In general, the pages take a long time to load compared to other websites. I wish Canto would allow for different versions of a video to be uploaded via the same link. For example, google drive has the option to "replace" the video without having to generate a new link. This is an extremely helpful feature for video, when you might send a final product to a team member who catches a typo, but you want to easily replace the video without changing the link for other parties who might need it.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Canto is solving the problem of asset management and that is benefiting my team by providing a long-term library for all of our creative assets.
Love how easy the platform is to use.
What do you like best about the product?
The ease of use and notifications that my team receive. This allowed us to easily build a workflow and develop a quick and efficient process.
Before this we were using Google drive and our data was a mess and we were never notified about client's sending us new content to use.

What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing.
Our team loves the software, alerts, and how easy it is to use.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Collection and storage of digital assets, including the ability to crop, compress, and re-size images is great for digital marketing agencies.
Awesome platform!
What do you like best about the product?
I love how easy it is to search by tags, filter results, and quickly drill down to exactly what I need. Its also made the collection of new assets easy by giving my team a platform where they can easily upload items from their phones.
What do you dislike about the product?
There are still some bugs and some areas of opportunity. For instance, we figured out a workaround that allows us to upload assets from our phones, but it's not through Canto's app. Instead, we saved the link to the upload space as a shortcut. It works for us, but the whole uploading process could be smoother. The app seems to be more about searching and downloading assets than uploading, which seems like a miss, to me.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Canto took 25 years of digital assets living on a server and turned it into a searchable, organized, functional asset management system. We didn't even know what assets we had - now we can easily find and manage anything.
