MediaValet vs. Publitio

MediaValet is well suited for DAM specific use cases, it provides robust features and functionality for sorting, segmenting and searching data so team members can easily access what they are looking for without knowing the platform. We find our Sales and Marketing teams both love this software for keeping marketing assets properly organized and available on demand whenever it's needed. This DAM solution is one of the most advanced out there and well suited for large teams looking to break silos.

Publitio works great for serving media of almost all kinds. Although we don't use this, Publitio has a transform-by-url feature that allows website managers to serve different image sizes and formats by changing the url. If you need reliable image, video, and audio hosting, Publitio is a solid choice. The service is less well developed for document content such as DOCX files.

• We love Portals, as a means of creating, editing and sending collections of pictures
• The tagging system allows for end users to find our photos, without knowing where we put them
• The system is quick
• Apart from our initial edit for size, customers gets full sized uncompressed files

• Playback is fast
• The service is secure. I recall no downtime.
• The platform offers multiple security options.
• Files are easily made downloadable.
• Lots of options for format conversions are available.
• It's easier to set up Publitio than an AWS bucket for non-IT users.

• I would love to have an improved MediaValet app. People send me pictures to my phone that need to go into the DAM, and it would be easier for me to upload from my phone rather than email to myself and then upload on the computer.
• I would love to see upload dates displayed when searching for photos to add to the Portals I create.
• I wish the delete feature didn't delete ALL of the pictures, even when they're in different categories.
• It would be cool to somehow integrate MediaValet as a folder on the computer like dropbox.

• The user interface works fine but is not particularly intuitive.
• Documentation is not always clear and simple.

It is not only likely, but we have been doing it for more than 6 years. We have even had the service since before I joined the company. The service works well for me and I hope that this service will continue to be renewed next year, as not having it would make my job more complicated.

I gave MediaValet a 7 for overall usability because it is reliable and effective once you’re familiar with it, but it has a learning curve. The platform is powerful and well suited for managing large volumes of assets, but the interface can feel complex at times and some common actions take more steps than expected. With simpler navigation and a smoother onboarding experience for new users, usability could be even stronger.

The team is very responsive to requests and makes a point to provide feedback or status updates before confirming solutions.

I mainly use MediValet to send special medical images to our partners. Collaboration with other companies is very simplified through MediaValet. The qualitatively uploaded images can be excactly assigned and organised through various filters. It is much clearer and easier for our partners to understand when the images have been accurately labelled and assigned beforehand.

MediaValet is much better and easier to use than File Explorer. MediaValet lets us search for photos, control who can access them, and not worry about our assets being deleted at random. This is critical for a government organization that oftentimes needs to search for assets from the distant past. MediaValet makes it much easier to tag our photos, add post dates, and set usage rights for each photo.

We were able to find great pricing on Publitio. Even though Publitio is not particularly streamlined, it is still a little less technical than S3 for non-developer users. Publitio is both managed (unlike AWS and Vultr) and competitively priced--and it offers content management features that may be key for some folks

• While we have had MediaValet only for a short period, we are already seeing improvements in how quickly certain projects can be completed.
• I recently created an Annual Report which had a lot of big image files and data tables and using a Lightbox with our design agency to share these files saved us a huge amount of time.
• As we roll out MediaValet to the teams, staff are becoming more aware of the quality, amount, and value of our best assets.

• Publitio has taken load off our site's server, enabling us to keep the site faster.
• Publitio offers solid dependability, meaning our visitors can always listen to what they need.
• Publitio's affordable pricing makes asset storage sustainable.
