"Daminion's catalogue program is brilliant."

5/5

What do you like best about Daminion?

As a solo photographer with almost five decades of judo photographs including ten Olympics, I have found Daminion to be the best cataloguing program I have ever used. Over the years, I have tried many options, including iView Media Pro, ACDSee, Lightroom, PhoTools, Phase One, and Media Pro. None of them can match the straightforwardness and speed that Daminion Pro offers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Daminion?

I would appreciate having a feature that allows for word autocompletion in captions, much like the system found in PhotoMechanic, which I rely on for importing images after a photoshoot and then include in the Daminion database/catalogue. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Daminion:

The volume of pictures that it will handle and its ease of use. Also its ability to handle non-picture files such as PDFs and other document files. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Daminion solving and how is that benefiting you?

Managing a vast image collection dating back to the early seventies, this tool makes it remarkably easy to locate photos of judokas, including those from ten different Olympic Games. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Ideal for cataloging, but requires improvements in backup."

4.5/5

What do you like best about Daminion?

I really like how Daminion is convenient for cataloging my personal archive of photos and videos. I have more than 25,000 files, and nowhere else have I found so many convenient features for attaching custom tags and using ready-made association templates. I also appreciate the functional interface without excess. It's very useful to have a floating window of recently attached tags, convenient switching between content display views, and a well-thought-out properties window. The functionality for creating sub-tags and tag groups is also impressive. The initial setup was very easy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Daminion?

I still haven't figured out the backup process. When I press the button, it somehow redirects to the Daminion Articles website (I'm using version 6.7.0). I would like a proper backup functionality or instructions on how it should work. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Best Software for my photo shoots"

5/5

What do you like best about Daminion?

The Software is easy to use and generates fast results in searching for Photos. I had the Standalone version up to now and uses mainly the search for keywords. The separation of the database and the actual mediafiles is a good idea. I like that the keywords are written directly in the media. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Daminion?

Updates are sometimes buggy. A better quality control would be helpful in this case. I hope this will improve in the server version. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Works well for basic cataloging"

5/5

What do you like best about Daminion?

Simple to use, very efficient for cataloging and tagging your images. Able to create multiple catalogs and move images between them Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Daminion?

Set up can be a little involved, not a simple one-click installation. Can be slow to add images to the catalog. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Good, clear and efficient but always with bugs"

2/5

What do you like best about Daminion?

The handling is simple and intuitive.

After a very short settling-in period you get along very well.

Use only the server version. The standalone version is not maintained and has many bugs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Daminion?

I would like automatic version control.

1) RAW: 1234.cr2 => JPG 1234_LR.jpg => recognize as version when importing and link it.

2) Please note the sorting. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Daminion:

Test and then decide.

The best thing is to create a requirements catalog and then verify whether Daminion meets enough requirements. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Daminion solving and how is that benefiting you?

Finally, I can manage my tens of thousands of photos reasonably good.

I have my Daminion catalog on an SSD, so access is very fast. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Murat Korkmazov of Daminion

edit

Erwin, thanks for the feature suggestion!

Version Control term is already used in Daminion for the management of file revisions. Edited versions of the same file.

We are going to add the "Variants" option so you can combine RAW + JPEGs or different variants (versions) of the same asset (logotype, ad banner, etc.).

After that, we will consider automatic versions/variants based on file names.
