The best DAM software and services in Australia and New Zealand

April 8, 2025 Ricky Patten

Best DAM vendor Australia

For over 30 years, databasics has been Australia’s most trusted name in digital asset management. And today, we’re proud to say it loud:

👉 We are the best DAM software vendor in Australia and New Zealand.

And we’re only just getting started.

If you're looking for the best DAM experience — the best product, the best onboarding, the best support, and a partner who will go the distance — you’ve found it. No need to look offshore. The strongest DAM provider is already here, with deep roots in the region, unmatched credentials, and a local team devoted to your success.

Our DAM journey: 30+ years of experience

Our story began in 1989 — long before DAM was even an industry — as the exclusive Australian vendor for Canto Cumulus. Since then, we’ve delivered over 500 DAM implementations across government, enterprise, and education sectors throughout Australia and New Zealand.

In the early 2000s, we scaled rapidly, managing six-figure on-premise DAM projects with in-person delivery and integration.

But we didn’t stop there.

Powered by Canto, delivered by databasics

When Canto redefined the industry with its grab-and-go cloud platform in the late 2010s, we moved with it. Customers didn’t want bloated, consultant-heavy DAM solutions anymore — they wanted speed, value, control, and clarity.

Then COVID hit. Everything changed — fast.

We took bold action, reshaping our business model around recurring subscriptions, automation, and customer experience. We built a whole new databasics — and it worked. 

Why we’re the best DAM vendor in Australia

We’ve reimagined what a DAM software vendor can be. Here’s what sets us apart:

✅ Customer Experience at Every Stage – onboarding, adoption, and even offramping
✅ Automation-first systems – powered by HubSpot and internal tools
✅ Certified and Compliant – SOC 2, ISO27001, ISO9001
✅ Australian-Based Helpdesk – real support, real people, same-day responses
✅ Global Technology, Local Delivery – Canto’s innovation backed by our expertise
✅ Customer-Led Growth – our vision for 2025 and beyond

We don’t just resell DAM software. We deliver a complete DAM solution built for Australian organisations that need real partnership, not just a product.

Trusted by local leaders

We’re proud to support:

  • Government departments

  • Local councils

  • Universities and private schools

  • Large enterprises and growing teams

databasics today: bigger than ever

We’re now in the final quarter of FY25. Our renewal business is approaching $1.3M, with Q4 typically our strongest. By June, we expect to exceed $1.5M — our biggest milestone yet.

Our renewals will cover all operational costs. Every new sale fuels innovation, expansion, and freedom.

We didn’t get here by being the loudest.
We got here by being the most trusted.

Why it matters to you

If you're investing in DAM, you don’t want a generic vendor. You want:

  • Local expertise with international reach

  • Tailored onboarding and support from people who get your industry

  • A DAM partner who’s in it for the long haul

That’s why so many choose databasics — the best DAM software vendor in Australia.
