## About Collaboro
Australian-based full-service Digital Asset Management solution that helps customers easily find, store, share, re-purpose and use their digital assets incl. large videos - in one place, from anywhere. There&#39;s lots of hard work associated with managing digital assets (i.e. tagging, metadata, ingesting etc), and our unique full-service offering aims to take all this admin off our customers hands. Our solution includes a unique multi-tiered storage offering that includes both cloud &amp; offline storage capabilities. The offline storage acts as both a back-up for your data, but also as a way to reduce your cloud-hosting costs (i.e. we convert and transcode your larger assets - i.e video - to smaller more user-friendly files before storing them in the cloud-platform). Our customers include lots of big brands like McDonald&#39;s, Qantas, Youi, HBF, Hungry Jack&#39;s, Domino&#39;s etc, as well as many Local Governments Councils, Education organisations, Creative &amp; Content Agencies, and Media Owners across the country.




## Collaboro Reviews
  ### 1. A 90's Feel with a 2020 approach

**Rating:** 3.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Taylor A. | Social Account Manager, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** March 24, 2019

**What do you like best about Collaboro?**

Being able to keep all digital assets in one place that i know won't mess up and accidentally delete itself. Allows us to easily communicate with international teams/send large files without a size limit. 

**What do you dislike about Collaboro?**

The whole look and feels feels dated and old. It makes me immediately reluctant to use the platform. 
I also don't love the way the folders are presented -- the collapsible folders make it difficult for me to find things. I would like to see an easy search function also.

**What problems is Collaboro solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Being able to keep all digital assets in one place. 

**Official Response from Jessica Maclennan:**

> Thank you so much for taking the time to rate us Taylor!

Don't worry, a new, more intuitive platform is being rolled out by the end of the year! We are moving into a more modern approach. Keep your eyes peeled.

  ### 2. Handy but very slow!

**Rating:** 3.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Blake O. | Graphic Designer, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** November 27, 2018

**What do you like best about Collaboro?**

I like that I can search for most things I need without too much fussing around. The smart folders are very hand to have on the loading page as this helps me quickly search for items I need without having to search too hard for them.

**What do you dislike about Collaboro?**

I find the site VERY slow and will often spend more time than I'd like to searching for the pieces I need. I feel that the search function could also be tweaked a bit as some things that show up aren't related to what I'm searching. A lot of the artwork I need isn't being uploaded but I'm not sure if this is the agencies fault or Collaboro.

**Recommendations to others considering Collaboro:**

The program is great to use and helps speed up the process of gathering files from other departments or partners. It's really handy to have and quickly search for things I need.

**What problems is Collaboro solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I use the site for gathering assets for Graphic Design for McDonald's. It's great to be able to go here and search for what I need rather than sending emails and chasing artwork up that could take a few days.

**Official Response from Jessica Maclennan:**

> Hi Blake, 

Thank you for taking the time to review us. 

Our audience grew faster than we expected which is what has caused the slowness. However, our next round of funding has meant we're creating a much faster site for you. We are excited to be rolling this out in 2019, so keep your eyes peeled.

Thank you so much for sharing your day to day using Collaboro, it's great to see it's being used within the Graphics department - and cutting down on email time!

  ### 3. Collaboro makes it easier to find things

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Mira I. | Implementation Coordinator, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** March 25, 2019

**What do you like best about Collaboro?**

Search function makes it easier to find what I need, especially when I don't know exactly what I'm looking for.

**What do you dislike about Collaboro?**

Would be good if the AI began to recognise faces, similar to Facebook or iPhone photos, so that we could search based on people's names without having to manually include it in the metadata or the file name.

**What problems is Collaboro solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Reduces time spent manually searching through hundreds of folders until you find the right asset. Also means that other people can easily find assets without needing to ask me for them. 

**Official Response from Jessica Maclennan:**

> Thanks Mira! We appreciate you taking the time to review.  Sounds fantastic that you've been able to search via all the layers of metadata we have.

We are always looking to improve and upgrade our product and facial recognition is currently in development!

Jess.

  ### 4. A great concept for designers!

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Nicky B. | Digital Media Manager, AU & NZ, Marketing and Advertising, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** March 24, 2019

**What do you like best about Collaboro?**

The ability to annotate any feedback without having to deface existing files.

**What do you dislike about Collaboro?**

There are a few too many steps to downloading files. Also don't think that the annotation step is necessary. 

**What problems is Collaboro solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Having multiple logins to a storage platform that can have feedback within the platform itself, as opposed to having to download and manually add via PDF.

**Official Response from Jessica Maclennan:**

> Thank you so much for reviewing us Nicky!

We can turn the annotation step off, I'll be in touch regarding this. 

So happy to be working with you, thanks for sharing your thoughts!

Head of Success, 
Jess MacLennan

  ### 5. Tagging using AI and Machine learning ...Awesome

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Building Materials | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** November 22, 2018

**What do you like best about Collaboro?**

The service is like no other .... no other company in Australia would come to my office or my agencies office and pick out lastest campaigns on hard drives and take them away to be curated and tagged in the cloud.

Ability to share files from anywhere given its great mobile capabilities ... a dedicated account manager , just like an extension of your marketing team .. 

Permissions management is great particulary when switching between agencies so there is no IP transitions issues which can be timely and costly.

Not having a pay per user is great ... one cost and as many users as you like can join the platform... 


**What do you dislike about Collaboro?**

An integration with youtube would be useful .... I did use to think it was expensive but I was able to reduce my agency retainer so it paid for itself in 6 months and continues to save money.

**Recommendations to others considering Collaboro:**

Use it ... and you will never try anything else.

**What problems is Collaboro solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We shoot large video marketing and HR films so being able to store large videos in the cloud makes it great for all the teams to access content from anywhere.

We also could not find anything that we wanted... we had files on servers , hard drives and usb sticks so getting digital assets could take days of request from IT or agencies.

**Official Response from Jessica Maclennan:**

> Thank you for your response! Sounds like things are working fantastically for your team via Collaboro.

What great feedback, we might need to print this one and hang it in our office. 

Thank you for trusting us with your assets, we are happy to continue our partnership. We've got a few integrations coming out in 2019-2020 for video so we're definitely expanding in all the right ways.

  ### 6. Needs more integration in to our agency relationship/ways of working

**Rating:** 3.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Food & Beverages | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** March 24, 2019

**What do you like best about Collaboro?**

Collating assets (product images) from agency partners. Download functionality is easy/easy to understand. 

**What do you dislike about Collaboro?**

Search functionality is a bit slow - end up finding it faster to deep dive into the folders to find what I need. I think there could be a bit more archiving/uploading of ALL assets from all agencies. Currently GJ's use it actively - but DDB and us (Fuse) need to get in to the habit of uploading assets as a directive from McDonald's.

**What problems is Collaboro solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Easy file sharing means less time wasting emailing/sharing files via other means.s 

**Official Response from Jessica Maclennan:**

> Thank you for taking the time to review us, we really appreciate it.

We are improving our search functionality with a brand new platform rolling out by the end of the year which will be a lot faster and easier to use.

I will reach out personally to DDB and Fuse to do a catch up on assets!

  ### 7. Increases my productivity and ability to create/design professional employee-facing content 

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Jesse B. | National Restaurant Communications Consultant , Restaurants, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** November 21, 2018

**What do you like best about Collaboro?**

Collaboro is a very collaborative and intuitive platform. Having all assets located in one, easy-to-navigate location increases productivity and allows me to pull assets across all projects in order to create and design restaurant facing content. 


**What do you dislike about Collaboro?**

More of a personal dislike. I work in Operations and don't speak Marketing, so the tags and keywords the projects used, aren't necessarily the key words we would use in Operations - makes it harder to find what I'm looking for. 

**What problems is Collaboro solving and how is that benefiting you?**

For restaurant facing content, being able to send stock footage to my vendors is so beneficial. Having this portal prevents having to go back and forth between project leads and different departments to get something. 

**Official Response from Jessica Maclennan:**

> Thank you so much for taking the time to review us!

If there are better, more operational terms that we should be using we can create a new metadata field or 10 for you! Just reach out if you want to add this.

So happy you've had a great experience increasing productivity!

  ### 8. COLLABORO - A change for the better

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Jesse G. | Marketing Coordinator, Food & Beverages, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** November 19, 2018

**What do you like best about Collaboro?**

Collaboro is very user friendly and an easy way to found all your in house assets in one portal! As a business, it is an effective and efficient way of accessing assets especially for our studio. The light box tool is incredible; it allows you to save and share assets so that your designers are using the asset you want!

**What do you dislike about Collaboro?**

Nothing! The portal is great to use and easy to find assets!

**What problems is Collaboro solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We now have a creative studio in house all because of Collaboro. It created a portal for us to house all of our assets in one place; being accessible by anyone in our team, no more relying on one individual to send you the required asset, you can save so much time by getting it yourself. It allows our team to create briefs easily but selecting which assets to include using the light box tool. 

**Official Response from Jessica Maclennan:**

> Thank you Jesse! 

What a fantastic use case! Very happy you and your team have seen great benefits working with Collaboro!

  ### 9. Collaboro is great for sharing work across the multiple agencies we collaborate with.

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Tyson P. | Graphic Designer, Graphic Design, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** November 27, 2018

**What do you like best about Collaboro?**

Seeing the assets with thumbnails makes finding what I am looking for quick and easy. Adding them to the lightbox to download is also very efficient.

**What do you dislike about Collaboro?**

Having assets spread across multiple pages and be a bit of a hassle. It would be easier if they were all on one page.

**What problems is Collaboro solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We work with multiple design agencies who are all doing their own part of a large project. Collaboro allows all agencies to share their assets, which reduces the work load while also maintaining consistency across the project.

**Official Response from Jessica Maclennan:**

> Hi Tyson,  thank you for taking the time to review us.

You can alter the way assets appear, my choosing view on right-hand menu bar, you can then have up to 150 thumbnails. If you want me directly to run you through this call 02 8039 3542. 

Thank you so much for reviewing us, we appreciate it!

  ### 10. Great user interface and helpful staff

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Marketing and Advertising | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** November 21, 2018

**What do you like best about Collaboro?**

I think the online system is really great and user friendly. It's pretty amazing to be able to see all your back ups right there in front of you. Also the team are extremely helpful and friendly. 

**What do you dislike about Collaboro?**

I think maybe we don't need an email every week asking for drives just because we know that we need to send them and we will in our own time (although the prizes help!!)

**What problems is Collaboro solving and how is that benefiting you?**

It takes storage off our hands as our server is limited and things can get lost so its great to know we have everything in one place and to be able to search it easily. 

**Official Response from Jessica Maclennan:**

> Thank you so much for taking the time to review us. We are so happy you've had a fantastic experience with our staff and system!

We look forward to continuing to work with you.

  ### 11. column A and a bit of column B

**Rating:** 3.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Education Management | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** March 24, 2019

**What do you like best about Collaboro?**

The AI machine learning algorithm that can tag and filter our content off any search terms

**What do you dislike about Collaboro?**

The requirement of us to physically have our files picked up and stored elsewhere.

**What problems is Collaboro solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Tracking and tagging creative cross teams

  ### 12. The concept is good

**Rating:** 3.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Restaurants | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** November 27, 2018

**What do you like best about Collaboro?**

I like to be able to access graphic elements of our POP at my own pace

**What do you dislike about Collaboro?**

I find it very hard to search and find items - especially new items without going thru all the folders looking at dates.  It's very slow to collect files and download.

**Recommendations to others considering Collaboro:**

the concept is great - a central place to upload and store company files

**What problems is Collaboro solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Our "customers" used to come to us to provide POP and images but now if they have access to Colloboro, they can help themselves

  ### 13. Creative Content Management

**Rating:** 3.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Health, Wellness and Fitness | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** November 24, 2018

**What do you like best about Collaboro?**

Collaboro puts the creative aspect into content management! My team and I have never found a more beautiful way to share what we are working on. 

**What do you dislike about Collaboro?**

I wish this tool had even more functions integrated into it. We would love to be able to take a shared item and launch a video meeting or call to further discuss. 

**Recommendations to others considering Collaboro:**

We have found that we prefer this tool to other content sharing or cloud services. This beats Dropbox and SharePoint in terms of ease of use and visual aesthetics! 

**What problems is Collaboro solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Easy content sharing with no limits! Beyond sharing we are able to organize, label, and sort with beautiful visual appeal. 

  ### 14. Making agencies work smarter, and harder.

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Marketing and Advertising | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** November 29, 2018

**What do you like best about Collaboro?**

I've worked with two agencies who have partnered with Collaboro now. It's given myself and the team an ability to share masters, TVCs, stills - all shared with all the info we need. We can see who edited, who was the soundover ect; it makes it easier to reuse material and recreate 3-5second stills rather than spending thousands reshooting.

**What do you dislike about Collaboro?**

Need more clients using it, rather than a small handful per agency.

**What problems is Collaboro solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We're able to use parts of old campaigns, to make new campaigns meaning we save budget and can use it elsewhere. More ability to provide the all important "WOW factor" to clients

  ### 15. Making internal collaboration and sharing, easy!

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Retail | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** November 21, 2018

**What do you like best about Collaboro?**

The ability to direct internal colleagues to the portal, and share high resolution files and resources that can benefit other departments. 

**What do you dislike about Collaboro?**

Sometimes the organisation of files are not logical to other departments that aren't familiar with campaign names, or types of files and it needs a little navigating. 

**What problems is Collaboro solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Saving time and people resource, both internally, and at agencies, to find images, TVC's and other resources for presentations and meetings. 

  ### 16. Great product for Digital Assets Management

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Education Management | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** March 24, 2019

**What do you like best about Collaboro?**

The simplicity of the product and administration. 

**What do you dislike about Collaboro?**

Interface design can be better. Simplicity can be added for more adoption rate. 

**What problems is Collaboro solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Centralize Content Repositories

**Official Response from Jessica Maclennan:**

We have a brand new platform with a much-improved interface. Keep your eyes peeled as this is set to be released by the end of the year!

How you can type in something simple in search and all the keywords pick up every option you can think of. 

**What do you dislike about Collaboro?**

Sometimes the user experience is lengthly, and not intuitive

Organisation of assets, sharing and storage. All beneficial!

too many results and having to filter through

central storage and reference point
