The ability to break out content by galleries within collections keeps everything in order. The ability to set up multiple ftp drops. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Only dislike is when setting up an incoming ftp, once you designate a folder, wish that folder was clickable within the incoming ftp page, instead of navigating back to images then finding the folder. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about PhotoShelter for Brands?

The software is simple, well documented and intuitive. From our initial evaluation of Chorus to onboarding and getting everything set up, the Third Light team is clearly dedicated to the quality of their products and the success of their customers. Chorus is well designed from a user standpoint without being bloated with extra features. Instead of trying to do everything, it's streamlined and focused on how we operate day to day and what it does, it does well. With the additional API module we're able to run custom scripts and integrate it with our other workflows in clever ways. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PhotoShelter for Brands?

There are sometimes (very minor) features that I wish were there, but I like the streamlined look and feel of Chorus. They've included a lot of really nice features that I wouldn't have thought of. So I really don't have any big complaints. Our customer success rep has been there to answer questions and walk me through any issues we've had. There's really not much to dislike, from my experience. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is PhotoShelter for Brands solving and how is that benefiting you?

We gather a lot of reference material for our projects, and it can get spread out in folders on hard drives, in email attachments, wiki pages, and so on. Concept art and reference images, marketing, branding and social media materials. Searching for these materials was sometimes time consuming and wasn't always obvious where to find it. Searching in Windows folders was painful, slow and inefficient. We needed a shared place to store it and a good way to locate things quickly. Properly adding metadata and categorizing thousands of images that are being uploaded and updated all the time can be incredibly time consuming to downright impractical. Chorus makes this a breeze. The collections, and the ability to share links quickly and easily is really useful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Danny Smith of PhotoShelter for Brands

Hey Russ - a massive thank you for taking the time to leave this review. We're always happy to hear your feedback and work with you to ensure our partnership is a success. I believe we have discussed some of the minor feature requests you've got. If there are any we aren't aware of please do get in touch as we want to consider all possible use cases as we continue to develop Chorus. We really appreciate this review and hearing where Chorus is helping you!

What do you like best about PhotoShelter for Brands?

The cloud based system with metadata searches makes it ideal for searching for files at home or when traveling. The sharing of folders and files to external people is very easy . Getting images Live to our social media team has been simple. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PhotoShelter for Brands?

The interface and thumbnails are very large. It's an easy fix in Chrome lowering the magnification but many users aren't that aware and it's the biggest compliant from our communications staff.

It would have been very helpful to see the interface and folder structure layout before purchase and it would have helped with out internal file organization before we moved all the images.

Adding permissions to a single folder that has "inherit permissions" duplicates the folder in "invited folders" on the portal view.

You can't seem to download an entire lightbox at one time. It looks like you have to download 1 image at a time.

I wish users could sort images on time, rating, filename like the admin people can on the back end. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering PhotoShelter for Brands:

I highly recommend their product. Despite the "dislikes" mentioned earlier it is really fantastic and these are minor. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is PhotoShelter for Brands solving and how is that benefiting you?

File sharing and searching have been the biggest benefits. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about PhotoShelter for Brands?

The tool is very easy to use and has a super helpful online Google search-like manual that provides straightforward and to the point explanations. Compared to its competitors, the product seems to provide better value for less cost. It ticks all the boxes (and then some) when it comes to digital asset management. A very visual tool that allows you to store, edit, and share as a team. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PhotoShelter for Brands?

Although there are no significant downsides, the upload time can be a pain (although rarely) and it seems to vary from time to time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is PhotoShelter for Brands solving and how is that benefiting you?

Using digital assets as a team and breaking silos

Files live in the cloud accessible to all

Sharing with third-parties enabled on our terms

Pre-sets allow quick customisation of images to be used across channels

Spaces and galleries enable a single file to be added for use in different areas, without the need to upload twice

Metadata enables a very easy search

etc

etc Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about PhotoShelter for Brands?

Photoshelter makes it easy for us to share images across the university and point people to one source of truth. It is hands down a necessary tool for all brands and marketers to use. So simple and so easy. Uploading is also very simple. A tool like this is easy to understand and use on a daily basis. I log in at least once a week and grab images for different types of campaigns. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PhotoShelter for Brands?

I can’t think of any downsides. It serves its purpose really well. Sometimes it can be a bit slow and require a few extra clicks, but other than that, it has been a super great tool that we couldn’t live without.one other thing I don’t necessarily like is that uploading images can take a bit of time. It isn’t always so simple. Sometimes it takes a bit longer than other platforms. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering PhotoShelter for Brands:

Do it! You won’t regret it. It is easy to use, easy to find, and easy to start using right away. It has made our lives so much easier from a marketing perspective because we can send people here to download images they want themselves. We don’t have to go back and forth. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is PhotoShelter for Brands solving and how is that benefiting you?

It has helped us collaborate and made us realize how much easier it was for others to find the images they wanted. You can just send a link off and people can have it and pick their own images. No more back and forth with finding the perfect picture. With something so easy, you really cannot go wrong. It makes it so simple. You just upload and it’s up.
