Canto has revolutionized our organization of our photos and brand materials.
What do you like best about the product?
I really like the variety of features, accessibility for our staff, and the ease of adding materials and branding into our account.
What do you dislike about the product?
It sometimes has long loading times. It is also buggy at times. It will show me duplicates of files sometimes. I am not sure why.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Canto is making our photos and digital assets easier to organize and tag, which is making it easier for our staff to access and search for files. It also saves on communication. Staff are able to upload photos with descriptions and tags, giving me all of the info I need for social media and e-newsletter content. The style guide makes all of our brand materials more easily available for staff and external partners.
Lots of features to love
What do you like best about the product?
The search functionality when sifting through assets (particularly photograhy) has made the marketing departments lives exponentially easier. The face recognition feature is also amazing.
What do you dislike about the product?
It took us a very long time to transition all of our assets into Canto. It was a lot of legwork and reorganization but it was worth it in the end to have a better structure to store our photography.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It saves us time with the easy search functionality through the tag feature where we can manually enter personalized info and utilize the AI generated ones as well. We no longer have to go through folder after folder to find everything burried within other things.
Makes finding and using digital assets easy!
What do you like best about the product?
I like the auto tag and the upload link features the best. It's also super easy to resize images for use on different platforms (ie Mailchimp, Instagram, Facebook events).
The customer support is also great. Our marketing team uses Canto daily, and we are able to easily get photos from our zookeepers as they use the app and upload directly from their phones.
It's also nice to create collections to share with external vendors and media.

What do you dislike about the product?
Though I love the auto tag feature, it often mislabels things so I have to spend some time undoing that.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are a small team and don't have time to name files appropriately, so being able to tag photos quickly when uploading makes it super easy to search for the assets we need. It's also helpful to pass on the job of looking for photos to our coworkers so they can just pull images when they want and don't need to go through our team.
Canto is excellent for creative archiving
What do you like best about the product?
What is most helpful about Canto is that it's a place where I can visually archive and sort all of my creative. Before this we were digging through files, trying to remember file names and with Canto they make it so much easier to find, reuse, and edit existing creative which saves SO much time and money.
What do you dislike about the product?
While I love the BT integration and the ability to change copy or imagery, I wish it was a little more "user-friendly" so that a non-creative or sales person could edit with ease. Right now it seems a little clunky and you can only edit what is pre-selected and outlined before uploading, which takes a little more work on my creative team's end to anticipate.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It's a creating an one stop shop for all creative that is available to all of my communities for marketing purposes. Rather than them emailing me and asking, what kind of advertising do we have for a family dinner event - they can just log on themselves and see what is available!
Canto is a Huge Time-Saver!
What do you like best about the product?
Canto is a fantastic way to manage your digital assets. My team has a ton of photos and we love to use them in our communications materials. However, we found that we weren't using things after while because our images were too hard to find. Canto has made pulling up archive images so easy with its searchability! We use it almost every day to pull photos and/or share photos via links with our colleagues.
I also love Canto's facial recognition. It makes it so fast to pull photos of our people. It's so helpful and much less time-consuming now that we have Canto's capabilities!

What do you dislike about the product?
Canto is a little on the pricey side -- particularly for nonprofits and schools. It is such a great asset to have but it is not as afforable for many. But I really like that Canto make updates to keep up with customer feedback and needs. They are very responsive and helpful!
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Canto is helping us maximize our time. The ability to find photos almost instantaeously has really made our work so much more efficient. The integration with Adobe has made working on InDesign projects and storing them in Canto super convenient!
Organized, Efficent, and User-Friendly -Canto Delivers!
What do you like best about the product?
Our team has been using Canto, and it has completely transformed the way we manage our digital assets. The platform is incredibly intutive and easy to navigate, allowing us to quickly find and share files across the marketing department.
What do you dislike about the product?
Canto has limited customization, while if offers customizable metadata options, some users may derire more flexibility in customizing the user interface or other features to suit their specific needs.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It is solving for centralized storage of all digital assests, images, videos, documents etc. in on single secure location making them easy accesible to authorized users.
Impressive and Fast Platform
What do you like best about the product?
We have new assets being created daily across a portfolio of 50+ products for 10+ retailers. Having everything in one place, quickly accessible and easy to share has been a game changer for our company. We use this daily.
What do you dislike about the product?
I would love to have AI suggestions built in to help facilitate the creation and use cases for portals and tags.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Organization and quick access of all brand and product assets in one place.
Easy to use and flexible to fit our needs.
What do you like best about the product?
We started using Canto for digital asset management about 5 years or more ago now. It has been essential in helping us manage the image rights for our digital assets. I particularly like the ability to customize the fields, tags and filters to easier sort and track images and digital ressources.
What do you dislike about the product?
There is a bit of a learning curve upfront, but honestly it becomes pretty intuitive once you've started using it for your workflows.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It's helping our company track image rights usage, which is essential for our operation.
Loving Canto!
What do you like best about the product?
It's an easy to use powerful database that allows us to keep all our assets in 1 place and search for them easily.
What do you dislike about the product?
Haven't found much yet I don't like. I wish each user could have their own preset defaults instead of the admins controlling for all users. But that's a minor issue.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It's allowsing us to house all our assets in 1 place that is easily searchable for internal and external users. It's a game changer for us. It will likely help us increase market share and therefore increase sales as regions will all have accesss to assets that have been created for one and now can be used by all. It will also decreases calls and workload for internal teams who are always looking for and sending things outside users need.
Canto gets the job done well
What do you like best about the product?
It has a very powerful image search function that makes it easy to find what I'm looking for among our many photo and video assets.
What do you dislike about the product?
I have experienced some challenges with our download setting templates that aren't just download the image in highest possible res. Trying to create settings for mass image download at lower resolutions for say, social media use, has sometimes made the photo renderings lose color profiles and overall solid quality we need.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
DAM solution that houses all of our brand and digital assets in one place. It's a good search platform too to find images we need for projects.
