Canto Reviews in May 2025: User Ratings, Pros & Cons

I love Canto

I love Canto. It took us from a bunch of external drives and a few servers of content that made it hard to track down what we needed to one location that makes finding assets so easy. Canto has been a huge time saver for us. I also really like that they take customer feedback seriously and their updates reflect that.

Easy as 1,2,3 - A Smart Way to Organize and Search!

Canto has become a huge asset to our sales team and is used daily through our marketing efforts. It is a great tool for organizing all our photos, videos, and documents. With a user-friendly interface, it operates as a google search engine for our company. Now it’s easy to find products, events, and share those images with our clients. It is our main hub spot for all things related to our company.

Excellent Digital Asset Management

We have a media archive (mostly photos, some video) that stretches back a decade, covering multiple geographies and of very mixed quality -- some professional-grade images, others crude point-and-shoot options. Finding quality images way always a hassle. Canto's searchable database, thumbnail interface, albums feature, and ability to share content externally, have all been a boon for our productivity.

Daily user of Canto Digital Asset Management

Canto has helped our office streamline all of our photo and video assets into one safe location, accessible by many different levels of users. My team is able to upload assets for projects, and share with clients easily. Other users are able to self-serve for their photo/video needs by searching for specific tags and keywords. Facial recognition has been an incredibly useful addition to the software as well. Overall, Canto has solved the problems our team was facing, and has made our ...

Hot DAM, we love Canto

Myself and two colleagues all moved from one company to another. We liked working in Canto so much that we implemented it at our new company. So far, it's been very well received by everyone who's using it.

Very good product but poor customer…

Very good product but poor customer support. Did exactly what we needed and wasn't too bad to set up. However, beware that customer sales oversells what customer support implementation will do for you!

Great Digital Asset Management tool

What do you like best? After years of getting by with a server-based media drive, it's been a huge boon for efficiency to have a cloud-based digital media storage solution. The search feature alone has saved us days worth of productivity. What do you dislike? Load times are occasionally a noticeable issue, though those challenges are mild. I do wish there was a simpler way to group collections/albums. Recommendations to others considering the product: Consider your storage needs ...

Powerful DAM, Lots of Capabilities

Canto is a powerful asset management tool that gives our 400+ multi-state employees the ability to contribute to our ever growing library and access to tons of polished content! Literally, without a DAM tool like Canto in place we would be nowhere near as organized and efficient as we are today.
