Swivle Reviews

Swivle is the perfect solution for my digital asset management in my company. It's a platform where you can quickly navigate, and the power and speed with which I can access and retrieve images are fantastic. The plugin for seamless integration with Adobe InDesign software is also an indispensable tool that I wouldn't want to miss.

When starting with a Digital Asset Management system, it can be time-consuming to add the necessary metadata to documents and images. However, the more time you invest in this process, the quicker and more efficient the return will be later on. This principle is not specific to Swivle but holds true for all DAM systems. :)

Compared to other asset management apps, Swivle offers a clean, crisp interface, simple to learn and use, without any additional weight of various rarely used features. The Collections feature is great, which allows to create collections of assets, like a playlist in Spotify, without having to duplicate them. Along with the History feature, you only have to assign meta data to an asset once, and it can sort of "live" in a multiple places. Uploading and downloading is a breeze, and the Check Out feature, coupled with the Swivle browser Agent, can be incredibly useful. Also the amount of storage to price, compared to other competitors is pretty great.

There is no way to add custom metadata. Their built-in fields are pretty robust, over 400 fields available, but if I wanted to add a custom field, I can't. The mobile app is pretty simple and great, but you cannot upload through it. The browser version of Swivle is not very mobile-friendly either.

If you've been shopping around for other DAMs, you may have noticed they are very expensive and offer a bunch of stuff you don't need. Swivle seemed to have the best bang for the buck.

We've gotten our assets so much more organized, rather than using a typical cloud file service, and having it sync massive files to dozens of computers. This has also allowed us to create a much better asset sharing experience for outside parties, agencies, etc via the Portals feature. All around a great experience.

- The separate log-in dashboard for our retailers

- The layout

The navigation through the system can be made easier. Making it a bit more for 'dummies' is sometimes what works best, and have more 'i'

a nice looking database from where my B2B customers can download images, managing all our marketing materials and having a simple yet effective overview.

Good way to easily group share photos across departments and organizations. Great functionality for making sure people only see what they are able to use.

Search is a bit mysterious to me. Seems a little finicky.

Great platform, easy to use, easy to add.

Photo sharing is streamlined. Helps our issues with stock photos and knowing what we already own the rights to use.
