Overall Satisfaction with Canto

Canto is being used to organize our thousands of images in our small department. We are in the process of demonstrating to other teams how incredibly useful it is with the aim of getting the whole organization on board. It means we can find images quickly, share them with partners and press, and showcase our services in the portal.
  • Tagging: manual or automatic, making it really easy to access files and find others.
  • Creating space to work collaboratively: saving sending out bulky files and uploading/downloading.
  • Straightforward: anybody can pick up Canto and use it, very intuitive.
  • Would like to be able to move between portals and library more easily.
  • Deleting process is too slow.
  • Connectivity with bespoke Wordpress pages is clunky.
  • Time saved on searching, sharing, uploading and downloading.
  • Better quality images: we are selecting and also getting people to consult the style guide.
  • Professional show window to showcase our events.
We looked at cloud storage, etc. but chose Canto for its flexibility, large storage options, and support options as well as the functionality to use with WordPress and the other plugins for designers, etc. The facility to create portals, workspaces, and branding pages was also very attractive to us.

Do you think Canto delivers good value for the price?

Yes

Are you happy with Canto's feature set?

Yes

Did Canto live up to sales and marketing promises?

I wasn't involved with the selection/purchase process

Did implementation of Canto go as expected?

No

Would you buy Canto again?

Yes

I would highly recommend Canto for saving archives or for creating and directly uploading new content. We are often working with designers and photographers and having to upload and download from emails, etc., which is time-consuming and sometimes tricky on networks. This platform allows direct links and uploads so it is fast and seamless. The only issue we have discovered is making sure the setup of files allows restricted access to some people. It is a little easy to 'overshare' images sometimes.
