If you’re using a generic Digital Asset Management (DAM) and Product Information Management (PIM) software to manage your product files, you’re not alone. Enterprise DAM + PIM 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 + PIM solutions weren't built with your specific needs in mind.
In this blog, we’ll explore why adding Prodify to your tech stack can take your file management to a whole new level.
Where Other DAM + PIM 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a diverse range of digital files and automatically update them to eliminate the risk of duplication and the use of outdated assets.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 + PIM 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.
