North Plains Systems in Toronto now offers and supports Xinet, a digital asset management platform with an emphasis on collaboration and sharing. The California company Xinet, the platform's original developer, was acquired by North Plains Systems in 2012.
Wikku has given us the possibility to order our company without any hesitation and without having the possibility to make any mistakes. Despite the short time we have been using Wikku we recommend it 100% because it is an excellent working tool and gives us the possibility to organize all the files, images, and documents in a fast, safe, and reliable way. With Wikku Partner we feel safe and comfortable using this tool on our main servers.

Wikku provides us with a powerful search engine when we finish importing the client templates in order to be able to control all the projects or jobs that clients send us by email.
Wikku provides us with basic tools to create a product sheet to make the respective assignment to any customer who wants it under any image of any product in question.
Wikku allows us to have a technical library where we can download and save from logos to necessary files.

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.

At the time of managing Wikku with some integration, this became somewhat slow, although it is possible that the support will give you SAT management immediately.
You have to request certain functions that Wikku itself does not have, for example, in the editing table you need the Siser color chart to be able to edit to taste.
It takes a lot of adaptation for new customers, many tutorials are needed at the beginning to be able to understand from the beginning the operation of Wikku.

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.

Wikku has a very low learning curve for the experience it gives us, even so, we have achieved a return of more than 4% in the time we have been using this tool.
