Cumulus Editions and Features

* See What's New in Cumulus 7 (pdf).

The Cumulus product family consists of a suite of applications that, together, serve the asset management needs of all levels of creative development and output on all popular platforms.

Here's how it works: Cumulus organises your assets into catalogs. You can have as many catalogs as you want, and you can even customise the look of those catalogs to suit your needs. Each catalog includes one record for each asset that you have. This record keeps track of the metadata associated with the asset. Cumulus has an enormous collection of metadata fields ready for use; plus menus, scrolling lists, buttons, windows, drag-and-drop, and support for the cross-platform operating system technologies. ColorSync and QuickTime are integral to Cumulus.

In a nutshell, this means that Cumulus works with your operating system's core multimedia technologies to ensure that essential features like color management don't fall by the wayside.

Cumulus comes in the following flavours or editions:

  • Single User Edition no longer available.

  • Workgroup Server - in 3 separate Editions: Archive Server - base workgroup includes 3 Clients; Publishing Server - base plus Web Publisher Pro and Business Server - base plus Internet Client Pro.

    For the workgroup that relies upon successful collaboration. Asset management is the process of storing, tracking, finding and using digital assets in a well-organised, efficient manner.
    Cumulus Workgroup serves that end by making it easy for network managers to maintain and distribute large collections of intellectual assets to workgroups and clients.

    Those on the other side of the network connection - the photographers, designers, production artists and others - appreciate Cumulus for its unparalleled flexibility, speed and ease of use when it's time to find and use intellectual assets.
  • Enterprise Server - For the corporate enterprise that needs a creative services department without walls.
    Released as 3 separate Editions: Archive Server - base workgroup includes 10 Clients; Publishing Server - base plus Web Publisher Pro and Business Server - base plus Internet Client Pro.

    The top-of-the-line product from the world's leading Digital Asset Management system features unique workflow capabilities, unlimited Internet client access, and server-centric automation capabilities. Cumulus Enterprise targets the global corporation with multi-located departments that need to centralise the access and retrieval of digital files. It allows users to develop, integrate, and deploy a custom-built Asset Management solution that addresses unique workflow demands. Initially supporting UNIX, Windows 2000, the Enterprise Edition leverages a new, open Cumulus architecture that is powerful and flexible enough to adapt to evolving technologies and company needs.

    • Each progressive level of Cumulus introduces additional features and options, but all flavors use the same advanced asset management technology that is the lifeblood of Cumulus.

    All products include 12 months Software Maintenance.
