What do you like best about PhotoShelter for Brands?

Photoshelter makes it simple to share photos and video clips with our clients and partners. Granting access is pretty straightforward and easy enough for those who don't have much DAM experience to understand. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PhotoShelter for Brands?

Can be somewhat of a chore to add metadata to clips, and sometimes hard to track down redundant files or actually delete files you don't want hogging space on your service. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

First problem is how best to allow clients and partners to access the asset library we manage. Photoshelter makes granting acccess quite easy. Second issue is how to manage all assets internally. Again, Photoshelter helps with that. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about PhotoShelter for Brands?

Photoshelter is fantastic and categorizing and organization of our large library. Tagging photos and creating collections is super easy and user-friendly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PhotoShelter for Brands?

User management on the admin end is complicated and not very easy to use or navigate without SSO (which costs more). Also, the UI could be improved to be less clunky and more modern. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Photoshelter has helped us move our very large photo library to the cloud. As a local government, it is important for us to keep our photos organized for quick use in an emergency and help our entire organization access the photos they need to make their work easier.

Provides a one stop shop where photos can be stored, and well organized. Users can quickly generate links to share content with teammates and clients alike. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

In recent years Photoshelter has worked very hard to provide integrations that keep workflows at the forefront of the constantly evolving requirement of asset management and storytelling. They provide guidance, support and ideas in equal measure to their clients, whatever their size and most importantly, they care about their business and care about my business. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PhotoShelter for Brands?

Would like the ability to set permissions at asset level rather than just gallery and workspace level. Allow templates for metadata to be saved. Allow comments in workspaces to be saved. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering PhotoShelter for Brands:

When I started with Photoshelter, I held an aspiration of how they could help my small business deliver a point of difference. This has already been achieved and now the excitement is in what comes next. An aggressive programme of development and a willingness to listen ensures that Photoshelter remains relevant today and helps shape capability for the future. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Collaborative working efficiency across multiple clients allows for a secure, robust working environment that allows a degree of end-user self-service and ourselves providing value-added professional services via Photoshelter. They allow me to be efficient. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about PhotoShelter for Brands?

I like the variety of intake methods and the speeds of uploads. The UI is not without problems, but is responsive. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PhotoShelter for Brands?

I dislike the expensive fees associated with adding users to execute what seem like basic features of a DAM. Photoshelter wants each user to have a specific function, but reality is more fluid than that. Figuring out what seat can execute which functions is a pain I'd rather not deal with. Once you have them in, permissioning per gallery is also painful.

The UI is abysmal and outdated. You can't resize the workspaces, right-clicks aren't context sensitive, and the whole thing runs on a clunky script that can't keep up with user interactions.

Sharing photos is difficult because the script-driven UI spits out unreliable URLs. You can't just grab the link you see in your address bar, or quick-copy a url. You have to EMAIL an expiring link.

Want to share a collection with a client with their branding? Be prepared to shell out more cash for a lightly customized portal that's just as wonky as the one running your library. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

It's a slightly better offering than Google Photos or Drive, so there's that. I like that everything is in one place, but it's more like a lockbox than a tool for collaboration. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
