Overall Satisfaction with Canto
We have years of photos from the field of our nonprofit work that have never been organized properly, so we were in need of a photo management solution to better organize and locate the assets we have.
We're currently in the process of implementing it, and hope it will save our team lots of time in the future as we grow and scale. It will be used across the whole organization, but mainly across marketing/creative/fundraising functions.
- It has an easy UX and search capabilities
- The visual library is so easy to navigate, and has a better visual experience than most competitors
- It feels simplistic once you're trained and get the hang of it
- The albums/folders are a little confusing, but their team is helpful in assisting
- The entire application does not feel like it's built for retina Mac screens. Most buttons/features appear slightly pixelated on my Mac, and it feels like they haven't adapted it to be high-resolution for Mac retina screens.
- I would love to see how they're constantly evolving and improving (not sure if they are)
- Too early to tell, but we assume it will save us hours previously wasted searching Dropbox for org photos
- It will help us get more return and use out of the photo assets we already have
We heavily evaluated Libris by PhotoShelter. I think if we were a larger, more corporate organization, we would have been more likely to adopt it. It didn't have a great UX though.
