DAM Features

Features commonly found in dedicated Digital Asset Management (DAM) Software.

Uploading assets

Ingestion of digital assets into a DAM platform can typically be made individually or in bulk and can occur through a native browser interface. Drag-and-drop features can streamline file ingestion.

Downloading assets

Downloads allow for role-based file conversions into multiple formats. Download settings can be configured to ensure compliance with licenses and copyrights. Assets may also be embedded into design files (like Adobe) for auto-updating other assets when versioning occurs.

Asset storage

Centralized storage capacity and accessibility for centralized storage of marketing and brand assets. These can be anything from documents, audio files, videos, images, creative files (Adobe, etc.), etc. Outdated assets can be archived.

Asset sharing

The ability to share and distribute assets with internal or external partners using sharing links attached to emails and messages, as well as portals. Data and assets can also be syndicated to third parties. Some DAMs enable asset publishing directly to end-user sites for more efficient distribution.

Asset search

Provides users with access to content and branded assets through filters and predictive keyword searches. Search filters may include file formats, date ranges, and metadata values. Advanced metadata and custom field options allow for assets to include unlimited details that allow for rich search parameters.

Tagging system

The ability to label assets with keywords makes them easier to find. Tagging can be automated and may offer bulk tagging capabilities.

Content editing

Templates and text editors facilitate the creation and publication of branded copy as well as asset cropping and modification. Version tracking should also be available for assets with duplicate names, along with their usage history. Some DAMs offer integration with editing tools so that high-fidelity edits can be made outside the DAM and automatically synced back as a new or updated version.

Embed codes

Blocks of HTML code that facilitate the inclusion of videos from third-party sources on websites.

Metadata

Descriptive information about data that can be indexed to assets to facilitate discovery and automation. This also allows asset use cases to be identified.

Collections

Enables users to create and share customizable asset collections with internal or external partners.

User access

Time or role-based access to stored and downloadable assets. This helps ensure that content is both up to date and accessible to only authorized individuals or groups for a predetermined amount of time.

DAM Integrations

Key integrations for Digital Asset Management can include out-of-box software integrations with CMS, CRM, PIM, Marketing Automation, etc.

DAM API

APIs act as an interface between apps and enable the creation of customized integrations that connect DAM platforms to other software. Digital assets can also be accessed and managed through other tools in a user's tech stack.

Workflow automations

Collaborative workflow with role-based permissions as well as tracking and monitoring of asset usage, requests, and assignments.

Related asset discovery

Automated ranking capabilities driven by metadata enable the quick discovery of assets related to those being visualized by users. The different assets that users have assigned to a particular product may also be displayed, facilitating connections between assets and products.

Reporting & Analytics

Users can report on and analyze usage, performance, ROI, and/or other metrics of success.

Dashboards

Users can create, customize and share dashboards, which provide an overview of the most important metrics.

Standard reports

The software offers pre-built reports with metrics standard to the category.

Custom reports

Data exportability

Data can be exported via a CSV or Excel file for further reporting and analysis outside of the tool.

Content analytics

Allow users to track digital asset usage and user engagement metrics across multiple channels.

Digital Asset Management Software

MediaBin is used to store digital assets like PDFs and JPGs. We can access previous versions of publications and find a variety of images whether they are photographs or illustrations or other design files. I believe access is restricted depending upon your area of the organization and your need to pull files, so as to ensure the internal documents remain so.

Search is often a chellenge - using the file name or "item number" doesn't always bring up the expected results.
Navigation is not intuitive in places - finding different functions
The export function is powerful but not always clear, several options seem like the same thing. e.g. Do I need FTP ot HTTP download? Do I care?

This software is more of a tool that resides in the background, so it is difficult to measure ROI.
One negative impact is the challenges of managing access and thus limiting productivity when people can't access things.
Another negative impact is the poor search functionality reducing productivity in finding the correct files when needed.
