Great tool for integrating a DAM to other tools
CI HUB is sort of a Zapier for the DAM industry. It offers a universal connector to directly access your content in other programs.
CONSNo pinning / quick access functionality for folders within a DAM.

Essential tools to drive automation for any creative operations team
As I said at the beginning a very good experience for different range of customers from creative operation team to brand management.
PROSCI HUB has a long experience in Adobe technology and their connector is the clear representation of what matters on the customer side, from easy to connect any system in one panel drives, Stock, Shutterstock, DAM systems , PIM, Figma from any Adobe App and Office, what else ? Fantastic usage of custom metadata, revisions management, check in check out....similarity search....this is really the DAM inside any Adobe software to speed up your process. I really advise and price wise the ROI is fast. So the best connector in the market.
CONSThe global UI can be approved but it also linked to the SDK of Indesign so nothing that can be changed in one click.
Reason for choosing CI HUB Connector
Features wise

Ci Hub Review
We rolled it out to our team and everyone preferred CC Connector instead - so we switched back. Downloading of images was far slower using CI Hub.
PROSsearch function. We found the search function superior to CC Connector, however with the long download times we ultimately switched back to CC Connector. Too much down time.
CONSOur main concern was that we have many files that we use one a daily/weekly basis that have large numbers of images (50+). We also have many different users going in and making updates to these files. This causes a headache as 1. Each user has to wait for the file to download all of the images to their computer in order to save out pdfs and 2. The users that are working on a simple laptop run into storage issues with all of the high-res images saved on their actual computer. It’s bogging down their processing speed. What used to be simple tasks had now become time-consuming.
Reasons for switching to CI HUB Connector
Our DAM provider had switched.

Hello Kimberly, i am very sad that you are not happy. BUT as you are using Adobe Programms, its the nature of the Adobe Product that assets need to be downloaded to your local Storage. CI HUB helps you to have the full transparency about this and this is something that you expiriance. I am very sorry but only Adobe can change it. I am happy to take back your license and return your money if you think you work better without CI HUB. Let me know if this helps you. Andreas

CI HUB Connector efficacy
Honestly, i have been able to solve lots of problems using this software. It removes the stress of logging into different applications and searching for contents. Thanks you CI HUB for saving me a lot of stress, managing my workflow and time.
PROSCI HUB Connector enables me to connect my applications and contents together, it makes them accessible to me quickly thereby saving time and energy. It supports lot of applications. This is amazing! CI HUB Connector blog keeps me updated on different news and information. It is very easy to use after going through and learning from the academy. It also has a free trial and it is affordable.
CONSCI HUB Connector should work more on their customer service

Time-saving Digital Assets Solution.
As an Instructional Designer,CI-HUB saves my time and effort on switching between various digital assets services providers applications to search, find, and use a specific picture. I use the CI-HUB add-on in PowerPoint to insert images into my presentation slides from Adobe Stock images. Also, I use the CI-HUB Connector of Microsoft SharePoint, OneDrive, and Google Drive.
PROSCI-HUB is an easy-to-use add-on that integrates with commonly used business applications. It connects all the user's digital assets services from various service providers. It allows users to search, select, and insert their digital assets directly into many applications they might be working on, like PowerPoint.
CONSAlthough the Ci-Hub comes with a free plan, it would be better if the paid plans were cheaper to allow users to benefit from the full features at a more affordable price.

Easy and User Friendly
The software is super easy to integrate but the features and usability are the best part. It is very simple to add, delete and search for content. Everything is easily categorized and doesn't take a lot to figure out where to find information.
CONSWith any new product it takes a while to learn how to use it across teams, customer services was very helpful, I wish we had a bit more of available docs to help continuous onboarding

Good
There is something to be said for ease of use. It's fairly intuitive, even for less technical members on my team.
CONSI feel like there is a lot of extra steps (clicking) that are in, and it slows the process down slightly, but not enough to discourage use. Still easier than most.

CONSIt can be a little complicated to get used to, and navigating the search feature isn’t always easy.

InDesign 2022 - TC Use
I was reluctant at first that I wouldn't be able to drag and drop files any longer into InDesign. But with using any new tool you get used to it. Multiple screens are a must if you are designing a large document.
CONSI selfishly miss the drag and drop function that we used to previously have. I realize we can do that with the CI Hub, but it's different, you have to expand the CI window to make navigability nicer. It's fine, I'm just getting used to it.

Content Management review
It was actually easy to use. I didn't expect that I would be able to use directly without learning it. But it was quite simple.
CONSI would love to have more features for content management. I think you guys miss a good dashboard where I can just view everything at once. And more features for web services. But over all it's been goos to use. If you add these features, then nothing like it.

Not my favorite plug in for Indesign
Using it to locate product images stored online in Brandfolder. Ci-Hub is the plugin for Indesign which we use daily to create marketing pieces.
PROSIt connects to Brandfolder (DSM) which stores all our product images and marketing logos.
CONSStores my linked images offline (on my computer), can't share layout files easily with others because of that. The user would have to relink all the images using CI-HUB and then that file has to be relinked again by me if I have to work on it.
