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

All your images in one location

What do you like best? We have numerous employees in multiple locations that can easily access the needed image files seamlessly. It has great features for image indexing and storage and all images can be found in one central location. What do you dislike? It was a little expensive for the initial outlay, however once we have seen the functionality, it is well worth it. What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized? Allowing all employees across ...

Workflow Improved!

What do you like best? There are so many features that it can accommodate a variety of users. Where I use certain features, someone else on our team likes to use another. What do you dislike? There is a small learning curve but once you understand it becomes easy. The biggest con in my opinion is the layout of some of the features (settings, menus, etc.). There is room for improvement, especially to make things even more efficient for the user. What problems are you solving with the ...

Good, but slow.

This asset management system was the best bang for our buck that we could find, and while it's customization is on point, the download and upload speeds are slow enough to warrant a warning to potential users.

Good, but slow.

What do you like best? I like the customization the best, and appreciate the ability to search with tags. What do you dislike? Upload and download speeds are significantly slower than G Drive. Recommendations to others considering the product: This was the best bang for our buck when looking for an asset manager that could take us away from G Drive and deliver a categorized and tag-based asset management systems. One thing to consider would be the download and upload speeds, and ...

Simple digital asset management system

What do you like best? Love the ease of use and customization. We especially love the public portal feature, where we can create collections of pre-approved content for internal and external stakeholders. What do you dislike? Wish there was an easier way to identify restricted assets when in thumbnail view. We have to pull high numbers of assets on a daily basis and sometimes you need to include a combination of approved and restricted assets. What problems are you solving with the ...

Canto for hotels

Canto makes finding the right assets so easy. The Chrome plugin is great - you can find a photo and drag/drop it into your current project without having to open another program.The only downside was how long it took to move all of our assets into the system and organize/tag them. We did it with our in-house marketing team and it was a huge process. Overall, Canto speeds up our day-to-day work, since we're not sifting through folders trying to find the image we're looking for.

Canto enables easy digital asset…

Canto enables easy digital asset management and access for our clients around the world. The search feature is super powerful so our users are able to refine their searches to find exactly what they're looking for. The ease of use for me to manage, and our clients to find what they're looking, for is what makes Canto a winner in my opinion. We researched several options and settled on Canto and haven't been disappointed. The fact that Canto is continually improving the product is an ...

We love Canto

It's a visual, web-based DAM that is incredibly easy to use and assessable from anywhere. Canto is incredibly fast and responsive, with all sorts of plug ins and extensions to integrate your favorite browser, file transfer site or software application (Photoshop, InDesign, Illustrator, Premier). The Portals & User Permissions allow a lot of fine tuning to ensure each user or team has access to only the assets they should. The admin controls couldn't be easier to use, making managing access ...

Canto is very easy to use

Canto is very easy to use with very robust features and functions.

Canto is an excellent DAM platform

Canto is an excellent DAM platform. I chose it for my client because of its robust features and customizable metadata. Implementation was a breeze and onboarding has been smooth. The interface is the best part -- with a team of creatives, they need a very visual and intuitive UI, and that's what they have with Canto. It is priced competitively and you definitely get what you pay for -- so far we've found it to be a very good value. The Adobe Connector is one of the best features for my ...
