Great product, great company

The staff at Aetopia are friendly and easy to work with. Whenever we have issues or questions, they respond in a timely manner and offer workable solutions. They also take the time to understand our business needs and work with us to achieve our aims. They also respect our change control requirements, providing the necessary information that documents releases and fixes to our systems.

PROS

Aetopia's digital asset management system (DAMS) is incredibly user friendly. Navigation and searching is straightforward and the presence of filters makes it easy for our users to locate what they need. I like the level of control we have with our taxonomy and user access.

CONS

As with any new system, integration with existing processes will always prove challenging, particularly integration with other systems. There are some aspects we still working on with Aetopia, like image dimension metadata visible in the API, but this is currently being investigated.

Racing Post Photos & Aetopia

We have a great relationship with [SENSITIVE CONTENT] and the team at Aetopia and continue to work together to provide a best in class system. They have always been willing to help and continue to assist us in delivering our assets to the best of our ability.

PROS

I like the Aetopia software as it allows me to micro manage everything in one place when it comes to our product. From contributors getting their images uploaded in the correct format, to being able to deliver these assets to clients in a various amount of ways and then reporting on the transactions is great. It allows a self management of the product where I do not need to manage anything on a daily basis and given the support is great we have no downtime whatsoever and if there are any issues, the support team respond in a quick manner.

CONS

There's nothing I dislike, Aetopia are more than willing to work with us on making tweaks to the DAM system if we look to make any changes as we have done and the system is fully malleable to our requirements.

Your digital assets are in safe and experienced hands with Aetopia DAM

We have been supplying the Aetopia software to our clients for over 5 years now, to support the upload/storage/management of millions of videos captured by our cameras. Their experience in digital asset management, data security and data storage is second to none, which helps us supply our solution to our clients with ease.

PROS

We use the Aetopia cloud to host our assets. It is very scalable which helps support our rapid growth. The solution is now supporting the daily upload of thousands of full HD videos, with that number growing every week. In our industry, data security is of high importance. When supplying our product to police forces, there is not a single box the Aetopia software hasn't ticked when it comes to data storage/retention/processing. The software is user friendly. This helps our clients get up to speed quickly with minimal training required from our end.

CONS

None. In the extremely rare event of an urgent/critical issue, Aetopia throw maximum resources at ensuring it is fixed immediately.

Partnership with Aetopia

C2K have been in partnership with Aetopia for 8 years. During this time there have been several upgrades and innovations to keep the service relevant and fresh. We have a service contract with the company which ensures any issues, enquiries and developments are dealt with extremely promptly. The staff at Aetopia are highly skilled and innovative - yet always explain issues and options in layman's terms when required.

PROS

The Aetopia Dam is central to the success of the C2K Newsdesk. The service is available through individual, personalised login to every pupil and teacher in Northern Ireland. It is accessed thousands of times each school day and has proven to be reliable and robust, comfortable handling the volume of traffic that flows through it each day.

CONS

I would struggle to name anything negative about Aetopia or their Dam.

Reasons for switching to Aetopia

The appeal of using a local company to develop and support a service for Northern Ireland schools - plus recommendations from colleagues.
