Mediawide
It is well suited for designing brand-compliant billboards, storefront signs, in-store signs, and wall signs to draw attention to your brand and drive foot traffic to your store As I already told you earlier, they can work on printing stationery and business cards.

Xinet is great for print marketing users that have a lot of copy in their artwork. Xinet is not especially useful for 3D artwork production.

Pros
Mediawide
  • It can merge data and videos to deliver an exceptionally engaging experience to the receiver.
  • It is also useful in addressing the customer by the first name at the outset, delivering a relevant message to him and if need be, engaging him with a unique story
  • There is a feature that conducts surveys, customer profiling or includes a call to action buttons in HTML5 videos to increase and optimize interaction with the consumer.

  • Tracking rights-managed assets. Xinet provides advanced features such as watermarking and expiration notifications.
  • Integration with Adobe. Xinet can be configured to access assets from right within the apps.
  • Desktop integration. Xinet can be accessed by the browser but also as a mountable server volume on the desktop. Unlike Box, Dropbox, etc., the mounted volume does not require consumption of hard drive space.

Cons
Mediawide
  • I still feel that they can do more in the Business Card design part.
  • They can also put more work in printing stationary.
  • Everything else is good and I love the product.

  • For my position, I didn't learn enough of Xinet to truly utilize the whole program, only one or two people in my department understood it inside and out.
  • During my time at the agency, we were unable to get the annotations to work on assets. And that would have been helpful to have to streamline our process of asset quality control.

Xinet is intuitive to use. It is perhaps the only DAM that features a traditional mounted volume, so anyone working in an environment with local servers will love it. Search is accurate and faceted searches allow users to narrow search results. Setup requires a lot of training if you want to leverage all of its complex workflow capabilities.

Support is handled by third-party server integrators. Our partner, NAPC, has always been there when we've needed them and also develops unique plugins to expand XInet's capabilities.

We selected Xinet based on having a large number of potential users and wanted unlimited web seats. Paying a one time software fee versus a monthly seat payment was a big draw. Telescope was four to five times more expensive and was not feasible at the time. We liked Basecamp but we needed a local solution for storage, not hosted.

Xinet is a great platform to build off of. We use it in combination with Enfocus Switch which has greatly improved the automation capabilities and we use Xinet as the portal for external users. Our internal users very rarely interact with the Xinet GUI.
