What do you like best about PhotoShelter for Brands?

I like best how easy it is to search through your library. You can tag images so then they will pop up when you search a certain word. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PhotoShelter for Brands?

Downside of Libris is not specific to the app but just a natural element of when you have so many items on a database it can be confusing. It is hard to organize a site/app with so many amazing capabilities. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

With Libris it is easy to organize all the images our organization has. It is great to be able to have this database sharable among different people so we can all access and edit the photos. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

(Original )Information
What do you like best about PhotoShelter for Brands?

The uncluttered, intuitive interface is incredibly easy to utilize. I never feel crowded, or presented with unnecessary options. Very streamlined, and easy for me to explain and get set up for freelancers, interns, and others unfamiliar with Photoshelter. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PhotoShelter for Brands?

I wish I were able to link my personal Photoshelter account with my Photoshelter for Brands user login, to access all of my Invites from one Admin page. Perhaps I can, but I haven't figured out how yet! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

We have a fairly significant issue with jumbled metadata in the archives, and Photoshelter for Brands allows me to isolate, sort, and rectify these issues easily. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about PhotoShelter for Brands?

ThirdLight's new platform, Chorus, is super easy to navigate and visually it is very user friendly. It's worked well for our medium-sized charity and I would highly recommend it. The expired image banner functionality has has really positive feedback with our colleagues, particularly as we work with image consent forms. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PhotoShelter for Brands?

It would be great if some elements could be more customisable but I know the ThirdLight team are working on through devs and they accept feedback for this process which is great. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

ThirdLight helps organise our 30k+ images and lets us search quickly and efficiently. We have benefitted from the workflow process and reporting. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about PhotoShelter for Brands?

When we went in search of a DAM, we knew we needed a simple but easily-customized platform. We've been pleased that uploading is simple and the interface is clean and easy to navigate. Single Sign on has been a worthwhile option to simplify the access levels for our internal teams. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PhotoShelter for Brands?

I've found that the settings and access levels are a little clunky at times. I wish the was an option to standardize some things beyond a small gallery, such as IPTC metadata. I'd also like to have an option for people to have to agree to terms and standards before they can download a file. As a brand, we want to ensure files are used properly, but also keep things accessible, which is always a thin line to follow. The improvements have been steadily coming, so we hope to see more of what we need as this happens. There are many details we are still learning and I wish there was more instruction and detail, beyond the basics, available to us without having to contact the support team. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering PhotoShelter for Brands:

Look into the functionality and think about how you want your interface to function. Sometimes the fancier options are just more fluff. This is simple but works well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

This is allowing us to migrate from Dropbox and emails to a more secure and simplified interface. It eliminates repetitive emails with branding, images, presentations and more. With a small communications and design team, any bit of streamlining makes a big difference. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about PhotoShelter for Brands?

We have thousands of photos and PhotoShelter makes it easy to search for the one I need. The results are always very complete. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PhotoShelter for Brands?

I wish there was a way to quickly preview an image (like in Mac's finder app) instead of having to click each image to open it in a new page. That can really slow things down when I'm looking through dozens of search results. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

We have years' worth of photos and many users who need to access them on a daily basis. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about PhotoShelter for Brands?

I appreciate the ease of uploading images, the single sign-on integration and how easy it is to deliver images to those who need them. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PhotoShelter for Brands?

Some of the organization of galleries could be better. I wish I could make galleries inside a collection either viewable or hidden depending on permissions instead of folks having to find their galleries under the "Invited Galleries" tab. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering PhotoShelter for Brands:

It does a great job of meeting our needs. Organizing our photo library is easy, when I need to do something there is almost always a way to do it. Delivering the images in a number of different ways is great. Searching is great. Integrating it with our unversity email single sign on is great. It has a polished and professinal look. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Organization of images, watermarks, levels of access, ease of use, searchability, IPTC editing and updating, ease of sharing and ease of downloading. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about PhotoShelter for Brands?

We've explored so many photo organizer tools and Libris is certainly the best bang for your buck! Their combination of custom metadata & IPTC metadata is great and makes searching a breeze. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PhotoShelter for Brands?

Sure, the cost is a little steep, so that's definitely a drawback. I also wish there was a checkbox option for the custom metadata info — so that you could select multiple things. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering PhotoShelter for Brands:

See if you can do a demo first and test drive it for yourself. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about PhotoShelter for Brands?

We love the cloud aspect of it, especially now during the pandemic. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PhotoShelter for Brands?

Getting started was really difficult because we have a huge existing library. It was a painful FTP process. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering PhotoShelter for Brands:

Be sure to plan enough time to get started. Getting all of our existing library switched over was a major ordeal. After we got that done, it's been great to use and easy to add photos and videos as we go. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Problems solved: Now we have software for everyone, including our Mac users where our previous software was PC based. We also love that it's cloud-based so we aren't tied to the office network.

Benefits: Easier to share with campus stakeholders Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about PhotoShelter for Brands?

i think it is a really intuitive and great interface. it makes sense and is easy to use for everyone in our business area. it is a handy tool that suits all of our needs. I like how it keeps all our files organized. It is easy to upload pictures and store them and then recall them in a very fast manner which is good because we need the photos very quickly a lot of the time and i think that is a huge benefit for this software and one of the many reasons i really like it and this sentence needs a comma somewhere but it is quite the run on sentence right now so let us just keep this thing rolling along. on to the next one. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PhotoShelter for Brands?

sometimes it takes a little while to load the screens fully and render each image. i know that seems nitpicky when it's looking at a bunch of images. it is a lot of information to download suddenly and it has to happen rather quickly so we just want to make sure that that is all happening in the most seemless way possible so maybe look in to a way to really optimize the load screen and things like that, really hammer that out. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

it is a great place to store all our images and have a nice photo library and image database for easy reference. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
