"Time saver and risk mitigator"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Canto?

Ability to organize assets, restrict access, and easily access the assets we need for agency and client projects. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Canto?

The AI search capability needs improvement. Portals are a bit confusing. I wish they had a mid-tier level of user between Consumer and Power so that our client managers could help tag metadata on assets for their clients (since they have the product knowledge etc) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Efficient DAM Platform with Easy Navigation"
5/5
What do you like best about Canto?

I really appreciate Canto's robust DAM platform with its AI metadata tagging, which makes organizing and managing content easy. My favorite features are the portals, which save me a lot of time and make it so I don't need a team of people to manage everything. I also switched to Canto from another product because it's much easier to navigate. The initial setup was very easy, which was a big plus. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Canto?

I would love if there was a way to mount Canto to a desktop to make uploading and downloading more streamlined - so I could create automations for moving files. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Intuitive Access, But File Classification Needs Improvement"
3.5/5
What do you like best about Canto?

I find Canto really easy to access and intuitive, which is the best part for me. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Canto?

I find it not easy to quickly see the types of files and it’s difficult to select a classification where you can find connected elements, like the individual slides of a carousel. Also, the initial setup took a lot longer than expected to transfer all our previous assets into Canto. We thought it would take 3 months max and finally, it was more like 8 months.

"Effortlessly Manage and Navigate Media Assets"
5/5
What do you like best about Canto?

I appreciate Canto's ease of navigation and the way it categorizes topics, making it simple to find the correct images aligned with company guidelines. I love the availability of multiple formats like PNG, JPEG, and GIF, which is very convenient. Having all resources in one place without needing to open additional links is a big plus for me. The initial setup was very easy with Single Sign-On (SSO), making the whole process straightforward. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Canto?

I feel like there could be more pictograms related to the new branding of Alstom. These pictograms are used widely in my presentation decks and need to be reworked to align with the new branding. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"From Chaos to Canto"
5/5
What do you like best about Canto?

Before Canto, our photos and other digital assets were strewn about different folders and platforms. Now, with Canto, they're all in one place. The ability to search for exactly what you need has freed up our time and made us more effective in what we do! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Canto?

There is a barrier to entry with Canto and you have to learn a lot before being comfortable using it. But once you get the hang of it, it's great! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
