Effortless Media Management with Excellent Support
What do you like best about the product?
I appreciate that Canto provides a nice repository for our videos and photos, allowing us to share them with anglers and sponsors in a seamless way. I also like that the price of Canto is competitive compared to its competitors, and after renegotiating our contract, the service provided for the cost is favorable. Additionally, I find the initial setup to be super easy, and the sales and tech representatives are knowledgeable and assist us every step of the way, making the process smooth and supportive.
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing really.. we have pretty simple workflow and it works great.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Canto to provide a nice repository for our videos and photos, sharing them seamlessly with anglers and sponsors.
Efficient Asset Management with Room for UI Improvement
What do you like best about the product?
I find that Canto significantly eases our workflow by allowing graphic designers to quickly provide assets that are easily downloadable in various formats and sizes, which is incredibly efficient. I appreciate having full access to our correct content and product specifications at any given moment, ensuring that we always have the most up-to-date information at our fingertips. I particularly like the Product Information Management (PIM) feature; it simplifies searching by SKU or ASIN and I enjoy the convenience of having images attached to the content, which accelerates content management and retrieval processes.
What do you dislike about the product?
I find the user interface clunky, which makes the transition between PIM (Product Information Management) and DAM (Digital Asset Management) jarring. When using the DAM, I often get lost because it lacks visual cues that were present in the previous software I used, Image Relay, which had automatic images for every folder. This makes it challenging to locate needed items quickly, as I now have to rely more on reading rather than visual skimming, leading to increased mental fatigue.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Canto to efficiently distribute assets from our designers and ensure access to accurate content and specs, streamlining image and text storage and retrieval for Amazon listings.
User-Friendly Platform with Great Support
What do you like best about the product?
I love how easy it is to navigate Canto, making it user-friendly and efficient. I also enjoy the up-to-date and modern aesthetic of the platform, which enhances my & my clients experience. The hands-on training provided with an actual person was excellent, and I love having someone available to talk to for support. I truly appreciate how much they listened to us along the way, ensuring that Canto works exactly how I envisioned it. The ability to customize Canto to fit my specific needs and dreams for a platform is a feature I really appreciate.
What do you dislike about the product?
I find it frustrating that when using the search bar in Canto, it searches through every single artist folder I have, instead of allowing me or my clients to search specifically by an artist's name. This makes the process of finding specific artwork cumbersome, as they have to sort through irrelevant results. I'd love to be able to search by subject AND artist's name.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Canto as an extensive database for my art licensing, posting all artists' work there. It enables client guests to browse at their own pace, saving to folders and feeling like they are seeing and using something really special.
AI-Powered Image Search Shines, But Slow Web Loading Frustrates
What do you like best about the product?
I love the AI integration in Canto where it makes my work so much easier and faster. I just type in a keyword, and it instantly finds the images I need.
What do you dislike about the product?
I would prefer having a desktop version of the software instead of relying solely on the web-based application. Similar to Dropbox, I believe this would help improve accessibility and performance, as the current loading time for Canto is quite slow and can sometimes cause inconvenience for end users.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
As someone who is working with images regularly, I find Canto extremely helpful in making it easier to search and organize visuals. However, the process of uploading images from Dropbox — which we currently use, tends to be quite time-consuming. It often feels slow and can be challenging when time is critical. I hope there will be improvements or a more seamless integration between Dropbox and Canto in the future.
Effortless Company-Wide Adoption Makes Work Easier
What do you like best about the product?
The ease of use corporate-wide is a huge benefit.
What do you dislike about the product?
Extra costs for Hubspot integration. Adobe integration isn't as smooth.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Canto is now our main asset library for our corporate staff to use/access. Instead of rummaging through our OneDrive folders, now they can go directly to that library and access what they need.
User-friendly system and helpful team
What do you like best about the product?
I really appreciate how intuitive and well-organized the platform is. The interface makes it easy to upload, manage, and find assets quickly, and the search and tagging features are very efficient.
The customer support has been excellent. Very responsive and helpful throughout the onboarding process. The system is stable, visually clear, and flexible enough to adapt to different team needs.

What do you dislike about the product?
There’s nothing I particularly dislike so far. A few workflows could be more intuitive for new users, but overall the experience has been very positive.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Canto is helping us centralize and organize a large number of photos and communication materials from our grantees and partners. Having everything in one place is making it much easier for our team to find, share, and reuse visual content across reports, presentations, and social media. It's greatly improving collaboration and saving us time.
Easy Setup and Convenient Access with Canto
What do you like best about the product?
I have been using Canto for about three months, mainly for a customer-facing library, and I find its setup process to be straightforward, which is quite convenient. One of the standout features is having a scrollable library that our clients can view while we are quoting jobs at home. It significantly benefits us by having all the information in one place right at our fingertips. The search features are particularly useful, making it easy to find information quickly, enhancing my daily tasks and user experience. Additionally, the overall ease of use makes me inclined to continue using Canto.
What do you dislike about the product?
I think the main area where Canto could improve is making prerecord tutorial videos more accessible or easier to find. This would be particularly helpful for maximising the potential of the software, as our company hasn't been using it to its fullest capacity, which might be partly due to the lack of easily accessible training resources.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Canto for a scrollable library that clients can view during home quoting, keeping all info easily accessible and at my fingertips.
Effortless Organization with Powerful Tagging
What do you like best about the product?
The tagging makes items easy to narrow and find
What do you dislike about the product?
I have yet to experience what I don't like.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
This tool has made it much easier for our organization to access assets. It has also reduced the number of asset requests that the marcomm team receives.
Setup Challenges Mar Accessibility Benefits
What do you like best about the product?
I find Canto to be beneficial in my role primarily due to its ability to help identify and locate assets quickly. This feature is particularly valuable for our team as it enhances our efficiency in accessing files. I am also optimistic about the future potential of Canto to be very valuable to our team once we create dedicated portals for partners and internal departments to access files, which would streamline our operations significantly. Moreover, I appreciate the filter features in Canto; however, it does require correct tagging and labeling of assets from the beginning to function effectively. Despite the challenges we face, I hold a favorable view that once Canto is fully set up, it would stand as one of the better options for digital assets management.
What do you dislike about the product?
{"I find bulk uploading of assets in Canto to be challenging, as it seems to require a manual process without support for bulk uploads.","I dislike that there is insufficient support or resources from Canto to assist with the setup and uploading process, making us consider hiring additional manpower.","The platform is labor-intensive, particularly when it comes to labeling and tagging assets, which affects the ease of asset retrieval.","I am concerned that there is a discrepancy between what was promised and what was delivered with Canto, as my team felt we weren't aware of this limitation until after purchase.","I find it difficult to create unique portal experiences due to a lack of support, which limits our ability to effectively share files with partners and internal departments."}
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I find Canto beneficial for quickly finding assets and believe it will be valuable for team collaboration once portals are fully set up, despite current setup challenges.
Effortless Organization and Ease of Use—Works Perfectly for Our Needs
What do you like best about the product?
