How to Select a DAM System

28 June, 09:00AM

With nearly a hundred vendors that purport to offer a DAM, how can you be sure to select the right one for you? With all the posturing and marketing hype, sometimes, the search for the right vendor can feel as futile as swiping away on a dating app. 

This session will give a UK and European-centric overview of the current DAM market, and guide you through various approaches to selecting the most appropriate DAM for your requirements, end users, procurement timeline, and budget. If you’re new to DAM, you need to make sure you consider many aspects of the market carefully. If you’re not so new to DAM, the system and vendor that was right for you several years ago may not be the right one now - perhaps you have moved on, but your vendor hasn’t kept up with the curve.

Procurement methods aren’t set in stone – you need to involve different people and take a particular approach based on your team and situation. In this independent intensive on the Digital and Media Asset Management marketplace, you'll get a high-level view of what DAM vendors have to offer you in 2019. We’ll then look at three possible approaches to procurement, depending on the size, scope, and timeline of your procurement and implementation.
