Overall Satisfaction with Aprimo

Not used, and not deployable. Remains as expensive shelfware. We were unable to run a proof of concept, all features that were described or expected were unusable. two separate systems duct taped together. a crap mgmt UI that is required for any work, a newer UI that is just used to demo. The data model is not flexible, scalable, or usable.
  • strong professional services team
  • Working data model
  • Support multiple asset types
  • Negative costs, negative value.
  • We're paying for a system that is unusable & undeployable

Every other vendor is better than Aprimo in every category, workflows, approvals, metadata, tagging, UX, user mgmt, structure, data syncs, etc
Not usable as a DAM, most any other vendor in this space runs circles around this. we ran POC for Bynder, Celum, widen, and others for 3 months. Every other vendor [was] better in every category. We manage large amounts and [different] types of media at scale. I haven't found any use case that this system would be able to address, maybe mail chimp marketing campaigns?
