Canto is a GAME CHANGER
What do you like best about the product?
Holy smokes!! We love Canto! It's basically like having Google images for your photos/assets. It is easy to search and tag images. Looking for a photo with a lot of white space for a website? Not a problem! You no longer have to scroll through thousands of images looking for a photo with white space because you've tagged your images and you can easily pull it up with search. So easy and saves so much time. The facial recognition feature is HUGE. Does it take you hours to search through photos to find the one you are looking for of a specific person? Not anymore! You can search for it, and voi la! You've got your mits on it! The Adobe integration is fantastic. You don't have to download each image and then insert, they are all right in a library in the Adobe App (and guess what?! you still have all of the same great search features so you don't have to spend hours scrolling).
If you are a brand, you NEED Canto! It will save you so much time, you will thank me later, and it is worth every penny!
There are a lot of DAMs out there, I met and spoke with all of them. Canto is no questions asked the best. It is fantastic!

What do you dislike about the product?
It is cumbersome to learn. There are a lot of features. Maybe too many features that it seems a bit overwhelming sometimes. They do have a FANTASTIC team that does a multi-week on-boarding with you. And their customer service is great if you have questions down the road.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It saves us so much time by having our images in an easy to search format. Honestly, if you ever have clients that are on the fence about Canto, I am more than happy to pop on a call to talk about it. We love Canto!
Canto has helped keep us organized!
What do you like best about the product?
It's helped keep our organization organized. We use it as one central hub for all digital photos. The AI feature is very helpful.
What do you dislike about the product?
It's a bit outdated and takes some time to load.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It's allowing our organization to have one central location for all images. It also allows different departments to upload photos to the platform for easy access.
I am new to canto and so far, I think it is a great tool for so many different people and companies.
What do you like best about the product?
My favorite thing about Canto is how I can organize photos in albums and folders. I also like how you can tag photos which makes them a lot easier to find when you have so many photos. I also use it quite frequently, and with me still being new to using it, I found it quite easy to learn and figure out tools within it, quickly.
What do you dislike about the product?
What I dislike about Canto is not being able to select photos from multiple albums, you can only select photos from one album and when trying to share photos this makes it more difficult. I also think that having more people being able to run the account makes it easier because we have run into problems of only some people can put photos into cold storage, but not the rest of the users.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
A problem Canto is solving for me is being able to organize all my photo content for the company I work for and allowing me to share the content with those I need to. This is benefitting me because I have a lot of photography that needs to be organized into a lot of different sections and since Canto has folder it really makes that easier.
Canto keeps our files organized and easily viewable!
What do you like best about the product?
The shareable links that I can share with anyone. Also, as a media organizer, i love that all the photos and videos are easily preview-able
What do you dislike about the product?
sometimes the share links dont work due to adding new content into a folder, but making a new one is easy and quick
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
A central location for all our media and content needs. This is extremely helpful in our medium size org
Investing in tools for a scaling startup
What do you like best about the product?
I work for a startup that is leaving its scrappy phase and starting to scale. I needed something that could grow with us.
Canto is the best for file management. My company was using google drive and it was a mess. I used canto in a previous role and advocated for it and implemented it. Using custom fields to tag all of our assets makes it very easy to narrow down my search. Portals are a a key feature for us too, as we mainly share assets with our clients and vendors and need to keep them secure. We use custom statuses to lock down assets that customers share with us so they aren't shared anywhere else. Being able to crop and resize when downloading is super helpful for my team.

What do you dislike about the product?
It will take time to setup, and we are still figuring out how we want to organize our folders. Canto Assets can be in multiple folders, unlike dropbox or drive, which can take some getting used to. An integration to post to meta would be great, surprised canto is lacking that since there is one for Linkedin.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It helps is find and manage our assets and controlling access.
Canto is the Best We've Had!
What do you like best about the product?
Canto is our go-to webdam! We depend on it to store final files, allow downloads for printing, web, sharing with clients, and most everything. Pre-Canto we used an outdated server which was not easy to access, messy and post-COVID it would have been practically impossible to access working remotely. We're quite pleased with Canto.
What do you dislike about the product?
The thing I really, really dislike about Canto is the search feature. I know we've been shown and told to use the "filters" for searching. It just does not work for me! I will enable the filters (when available), check all the boxes and run my search. Nothing. I have to get very creative with my search terms and just take twice or three times longer than I should to locate a particular file. Canto used to have a good search feature, so I'm not sure why it was even changed. Sometimes we change things for the better, when it may have been better being left alone.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Canto solves the file access issue as well as accessing files remotely from anywhere. If we were not able to access files, we would not have a job is how it benefits us! I've never heard of any issues with the amount of file storage, but there has to be one I'm sure. For as long as we've used it, and added files, we apparently have a ton of storage space! We're currently trying to organize our Canto files to make our daily work a bit easier, such as locating files faster, etc.
A game changer for our organization
What do you like best about the product?
Canto DAM has truly been a game changer for our organization. From the moment we implemented this digital asset management system, we noticed a significant improvement in how we handle our digital assets. The AI tools are particularly impressive, streamlining our search processes and enabling us to quickly find the assets we need, The custom portals have enhanced collaboration across teams, allowing for tailored access to specific assets based on individual project needs. We also love the upload links feature, making it effortless to gather and manage incoming files from various sources. Additionally, the ability to easily assign files to folders and albums has transformed our organizational workflow. This functionality not only keeps our assets organized, but also fosters a more efficient and productive environment. I highly recommend this DAM system to any organization looking to optimize their digital assets.
What do you dislike about the product?
While we have greatly benefited from Canto DAM. One aspect we find lacking is the inability to batch edit file names. A dedicated rename function for multiple files does not currently exist, and having this feature would significantly enhance our efficiency, especially when managing large volumes of assets.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Canto enhances our workflow by providing a streamlined process for accessing and sharing digital assets. Users can easily manage and organize their files, which helps maintain order and accessibility across the board.
Canto is easy to use
What do you like best about the product?
Its very easy to use and navigate, especially for those not super comfortable with tech.
What do you dislike about the product?
It does require a lot of work on the back end i.e. need to add a lot of meta data to keep things organized. As the Canto lead for my organization, I have to go through long orientations for the people in charge of adding new assets.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Its a central location for all to access our assets.
