Media company with multiple client libraries
What do you like best about the product?
As an admin, it is really helpful having the ability to divide my users into groups. This allows me to restrict the content that my clients see to only their assets and keep each of our client's libraries separated.
I also like the control over the thumbnail view which makes for easy exploration of assets. The new library view is promising as a cleaner interface.

What do you dislike about the product?
Certain features are occasionally slow or clunky and buggy. For example, there is a delay in the time between when you click "share link" until it actually generates the link and allows you to copy it to the clipboard. This causes concern that users are losing their links or doing something wrong.
The delete and trash can functions feel treacherous and destructive sometimes. If a user doesn't know how to highlight and select the assets or albums they want to delete, they sometimes inadvertently delete things they didn't mean to. This makes users wary of making any changes to their library.
I attempted several times to link my google drive account to Canto, and syncing files failed several times so I gave up on linking to google drive.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The share link lag time seems to have improved recently. The customer service representatives are fairly responsive in a timely manner.
I have submitted feature requests several times such as my desire to be able to jump to a point in the transcript, and hopefully these will be addressed.

Convenient Photo Storage with Minor Speed Hiccups
What do you like best about the product?
I like Canto for its ability to use tags and make share links easily. The tagging feature is great because it makes it easy to come back to old photos when I need them. Being able to make share links allows me to share my work with others easily. I also found the initial setup of Canto to be easy.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes it is really slow at processing. I also don't like how the photo quality gets compressed in the preview.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Canto provides a place to store photos and allows me to tag them for quick access. The tagging helps find old photos easily, and I can share my work effortlessly with share links.
Intuitive Asset Management, Needs Android App
What do you like best about the product?
I like how easy it is to organize and tag our assets in Canto, making the experience intuitive for people who are tech-savvy and those who aren't. Asset distribution and tracking work really well, especially since we're able to track what is being downloaded and used and what's not. The platform helps everything be easily organized, especially when I need to add multiple assets at once, and the mass tags facilitate asset storage. The initial setup of Canto was very easy for me and my team.
What do you dislike about the product?
I think one thing that can be improved is the tracking report. I think there's an opportunity to make it more detailed and thorough. Another thing that can be improved is the lack of an Android app.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Canto to distribute assets to our sales team effectively, improving brand compliance. It's a one-stop-shop for approved marketing assets and makes organizing and tagging intuitive. Asset distribution and tracking work well, but the tracking report could be more detailed.
Seamless Collaboration, Stellar Asset Management
What do you like best about the product?
I really appreciate Canto's external sharing capabilities and find it intuitive for our sales team to navigate. It effectively saves us from the hassle of email back and forth and ensures our team stays aligned on creative. Setting it up was very easy, even though dealing with internal assets took some effort. I also value the attentive customer service team and the great support from our account team.
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish there were capabilities to edit the assets included in share links rather than having to make a new one. I also wish we were able to draft approval hub flows before pushing them out to the broader team.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Canto saves email back and forth, ensures our team is aligned on creative, and offers great approval, sharing, and storage features.
Designed to find everything we need in 3 clicks or less!
What do you like best about the product?
I love the ability to create custom filters so we can organize all our documentation and find everything in the least amount of clicks possible.
What do you dislike about the product?
I think the emphasis on visual search features makes companies like ours feel like an after thought sometimes. We have mostly excel type files we share and we cannot search them as thoroughly and they are not live editable.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We have thousands of files that have to be sorted out by client and type of file, so the custom filter feature has helped us greatly to make it easier for our team to click and find what they are looking for without searching and/or sifting through 100's of documents at a time.

What do you like best about the product?
I like Canto’s smart search and simple, streamlined workflows that make daily use easy. Its intuitive interface, smooth cloud setup, strong feature set, and solid integrations all support fast, organized, and efficient content management. Also, the integration to PowerPoint makes the presentation creation more agile.
What do you dislike about the product?
The platform can lag, especially with large libraries or heavy operations. Also, when you need to find multiples visual contents, it is not optimized to move between contents.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
