If you’re using Digital Asset Management (DAM) software to manage product files, you’re not alone. DAM systems are great general-purpose tools: easy to use, convenient for syncing across devices, and perfect for real-time collaboration within your team. But when it comes to managing digital assets for building product manufacturers, most DAM solutions weren't built with your specific needs in mind.
In this blog, we’ll explore why adding Prodify to your tech stack alongside other DAM systems can take your file storage, sharing, and management to a whole new level.
Where Other DAM Solutions Shine
Centralized Digital Assets & Single Source of Truth: All DAM solutions offer a centralized platform for storing a diverse range of digital files and automatically update them to eliminate the risk of duplication and the use of outdated assets.
Advanced Tagging & Consistency: With customizable tags and a robust search functionality, all DAM solutions ensure that team members can quickly access to their most up-to-date, version-controlled assets, preventing confusion and duplicated work.
Strong Security & Permissions: DAM protects your assets by ensuring that only authorized individuals can view, edit, or share certain files, minimizing the risk of unauthorized access and misuse.
