There’s one thing in business life that is near certain. You will have more digital assets tomorrow than you had yesterday. Keeping track of everything will become more challenging in the future without a system to organise and find all of the content important to your organisation.
Extensis Portfolio, a Digital Asset Management (DAM) solution, can help individuals and organisations get the most use out of all of their assets and improve workflow efficiencies, no matter the size of their collection.
In this joint webcast with digital agency After Digital, we showcased how The Amber Collective add structure to their collection of digital assets in making them available to the web.
The webcast focused on how to:
- Create an organised and comprehensive library of your digital assets.
- Increase visibility and access to all of your digital assets across networks.
- Facilitate greater collaboration between teams of users and workgroups.
- Quickly set up an efficient DAM tailored to your needs.
- Integrate Portfolio with other business systems, including Collections Management Systems (CMS), using the Portfolio API.
- Enable access to approved files via a custom interface.
