How research works in digital asset management

A DAM system works as a wonderful research tool thanks to its easy navigation and search input. Finding and organising files in a so-called resource management system improves the workflow of your staff and saves valuable time. If the search is saved afterwards, it can be conveniently recalled at a later time.

Especially in large companies with different locations, digital asset management software makes a lot of sense. Searching for a specific file becomes child's play, no matter how large the data stock is.

All files of a company are easily catalogued and centrally stored with keywords. The appropriate media are quickly and conveniently available, so that the search no longer takes up unnecessary time.

A digital asset management is a platform where content and files can be easily found and where all your images, videos, presentations and other media files can be moved to. You can always download or export exactly the content or files you need next.

Metadata helps to better describe files and to search and filter them according to image properties. Required media are then immediately available for editing, viewing, printing, presenting or forwarding by email. Media that are not needed can also be archived so that nothing is lost.

A digital asset management system enables a field-based search via input fields or a full-text search, sometimes both. In addition, it is easy to search the entire inventory for a specific file.

The intelligent search functions here via categories and keywords. Individually adjustable filters and search queries as well as format data, licences or different metadata and characteristics can also be taken into account.

Search results can be collected as file exports or as a collection for further use and thus clearly listed. With the help of external galleries (media portal), files can also be published as part of one's own web presence. In addition, it is possible to assign different access rights so that only certain files can be found or exported. This influences whether users receive a preview image or the high-resolution original, for example.

With a digital asset management system, a large stock of files can be organised and centrally managed. Time-saving media research is made possible by an optimal search and navigation function that makes use of metadata, categories, filters, etc.
