"All out media resources in one place"
4/5
What do you like best about Fotoware?

I can easily sort our media content, share it with our partners and offer a selection to our media library on our website for press etc.

But what I like the most is the customer service and consultants that offer great service! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Fotoware?

Some thumbnail issues, so I can not see what my content is. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Fast image search, powerful metadata engine"
5/5
What do you like best about Fotoware?

This is software with very high performance. Searches are completed within a glimpse. It is very useful also for our mobile users, we receive our own last-minute photos before any agency send their version. Using the correct metadata also help to find the correct asset in a moment, without the need of the old-fashing folder structures. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Fotoware?

At the moment we have found no drawbacks in the use of Fotoware, it has been a major improvement from our previous systems (homemade). We are now in the process to install the very last version with the web clients. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Efficient archiving program with many facets and usage possibilities for your workflow."
4.5/5
What do you like best about Fotoware?

The serial renaming of photos and image files in the quickest possible way, even for large quantities of image material, as is necessary in digital photography today. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Fotoware?

Programs must be backward compatible. It would repel me if a software cannot do this and updates negatively impact my previous work. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"straight-forward image management system"
4/5
What do you like best about Fotoware?

Easy to use image management system. Our internal and external users find it easy to ingest, search and download images. The use of albums allow us to share images from within our DAM without the need of other tools. We can connect to other systems using the FotoWare API and webhooks. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Fotoware?

There is still room for improvements for things that from our perspective should be basic functionality in the FotoWeb UI. E.g. better handling of date-time fields and support for bag of structs fields. These are both supported in FotoStation, but missing in FotoWeb, what most of our users use.

"Good overall but has some shortcomings"
3.5/5
What do you like best about Fotoware?

Fast and easy to use with a useful contextual dropdown menu to open with another program, eg Photoshop. Simple ability to add shortcuts and actions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Fotoware?

Metadata sometimes fails to add to all selected pictures. One has to check all selected pictures have 'resolved' or else Metadate will miss these pictures. Undo function won't go back just a single step but reverts to the start point of the edit process. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
