The UI could use a little work. Plus it doesn't feel as intuitive as it should.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It helped us pull footage and other assets without all the fuss of a " video server " It's been such a HUGE time save.
Great as a corporate tool so all can access collateral and other materials on demand.
What do you like best about the product?
I like that we can share a link with anyone in our company so they can access materials right when they need them. Canto is easy for anyone in our company to find what they need. Canto also provides a link so I can simply and easily upload new content. It has been a much better solution overall than what we were using before.
What do you dislike about the product?
At times, it can be challenging to find the right content pending on the folder layout. However, Canto comes with a robust search function, and that makes finding content easier. At times, it can be challenging to find the right content pending on the folder layout. However, I've found it easier over time finding the content I need.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The biggest problem Canto solved was having a corporate solution for all media. We were using an internal intranet, and that was fine for a while. However, we needed a better solution for our corporate asset management. Canto makes it so much easier to find the content we need not to mention an easier wau to upload new content.

Canto is a great solution if you need a solution for asset management at the corporate level.

Limited flexibility in folder structure.

Loved the searchable feature and ease of use.
What do you dislike about the product?
If you are a larger company and have TONS of assets, it can be slow to load.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Ability to share out assets to partners and able to hide some from groups that you may not want them to have access
Canto has been a very user friendly platform with amazing tools that help our organization.
What do you like best about the product?
I like that Canto is a searchable library which makes it easy to find what you are looking for in a matter of seconds. The tagging, custom fields, and keywords are fantastic tools that help our assets be well organized and easily accessible to those who need them. I also like how we can add in our digital rights management, adding an extra layer of security to our assets. Lastly, the reports on Canto are excellent! I love how you can see reports on everything on Canto, whether the asset that has been looked at/opened the most or reports on the share links; this tool is awesome!
What do you dislike about the product?
The one thing that I feel Canto has an opportunity to do is to make is easier to remove content from the share links. Currently the only way to remove content from the share links is to completely delete the asset from the main library. It would be great if we could do that without having to completely delete the asset and only delete it from the share link.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The problem we have solved with Canto is organizing the company's digital assets all in one place. Canto makes it so much easier for our employees to find what they're looking for. It has also made it easier and faster for us to send information such as larger files that quite can't be emailed, using the share links has been a huge help.
Great tool for organizing and sharing digital assets
What do you like best about the product?
Canto is easy to use. The onboarding process was smooth and as an organization with a large volume of photographic content coming in on a weekly basis, we like the ability that Canto has given us to manage the whole review and approval process. We also like the flexible options Canto gives us for sharing content both internally and with external stakeholders.
What do you dislike about the product?
Some of the user interfaces could be more improved. When sharing content with external parties, it was not always obvious to them how to download files - especially for video and PDF files.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Prior to using Canto, it was extremely time-consuming to find photos for use in communications material. Canto has given us the ability to find images instantly thanks to the tagging and rating functionality. We have also found the custom options very useful in being able to better organize our content.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I would recommend taking the time to ensure key stakeholders across the organization are onboarded and understand how to use Canto as it is then that the true benefits of the system become apparent.
Simple Effective Media Management, as it should be!
What do you like best about the product?
I use Canto as a library for all of our organization's photography. One of the most amazing parts of using this platform in this way is the number of ways you're able to categorize the photos. We use a system built around Keywords and Tags, with some facial recognition, and it makes life so much easier for everyone in our organization when they need a specific photo and need to find it quickly!
What do you dislike about the product?
The only downside I can think of is that it's an entirely 'in browser' platform, which I think could benefit significantly from being its own desktop application or being integrated in some way with the operating system so that you can add and remove files in seconds. I know it integrates with some other platforms that do that, but if you don't want to use those options, you're a bit stuck.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
One of the things that I didn't expect to be as useful as it is is the facial recognition that is built into the platform. We have a lot of photos of thousands of different people and so it's really helpful that we can quickly find photos with people like our CEO in them that aren't even explicitly tagged, just because the system can recognize his face.
Canto is an outstanding DAM solution
What do you like best about the product?
The auto-tagging, facial recognition, and advanced search feature really make it easy to use Canto to its full potential. They have been invaluable in helping our organization use our time and assets efficietntly.
What do you dislike about the product?
The only negative I can say about Canto is that it is a bit higher on the price scale when compared to its competitors. However, it is essential to remember that you get what you pay for!
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
When we first started looking for a DAM solution, we were on multiple platforms (Google Drive, Dropbox, Internal S: Drive) and it was a pain to try to find anything! With Canto, we have been able to not only streamline the process, but enhance it with intuitive tools.
Easy to use!
What do you like best about the product?
The folder feature makes it very easy to sort through thousands of images. Able to heart favorites so easily.
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish there were more features for sharing. Commenting and tagging other users would be helpful.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Giving the broader team access to assets for different uses across the business.
