Moving to Canto has been a success for more reasons than one for Destination Queenstown. Everyone can locate, use, and share assets quickly and easily due the Advanced Search functionality.

Daniela Jones
Destination Queenstown

Canto has been instrumental in streamlining our asset approval workflows. We’ve cut down on email back-and-forth, and our stakeholders now have real-time visibility into every stage of the process. It’s a game changer for our in-house creative team.

Matt Harnett
Victoria Department of Health

Before switching to Canto, we struggled with a DAM that lacked robust AI tagging and brand portal capabilities. After implementing Canto, our marketing team cut asset search time by 50% and improved brand consistency across multiple markets.

Why choose Canto

Purpose-Built for DAM

Canto is fundamentally a DAM solution with robust tools to help you manage, organise, and distribute digital assets efficiently.

 

IntelligenceBank offers multiple solutions (compliance, risk management, and DAM), which can dilute its focus on DAM-specific innovation.

Superior Brand Portal Capabilities

Canto supports unlimited portals, making it easier to share content securely with different user groups—internally and externally. IntelligenceBank also offers portal-like features but may not match the depth and flexibility of Canto’s portals.

Industry Leading AI Features

Canto's industry-leading AI features set it apart as a powerhouse in digital asset management. With AI Visual Search, users can locate assets by analysing visual elements within images and videos, such as objects, colours, and scenes, even in the absence of tags or metadata. This groundbreaking functionality eliminates reliance on manual tagging and accelerates asset retrieval. Additionally, AI tagging and Facial Recognition streamline asset management.
