## Reviews

### "An amazing and feature rich DAM solution" — 5.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *16 September 2024* | Nonprofit Organization Management | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I love the design and function of Brandfolder as a DAM. It makes it so easy to find assets through search, filtering, or even visually. The way that we can easily upload, sort, find, and share our assets makes our work faster and more efficient.
> 
> **Cons**: I wish there were options for smaller companies and orgs. Alot of places need a great DAM solution but there are not options for small scale DAM options with less features and a lower price.
> 
> We switched our DAM solution that felt very out of date, slow, and the design was basically a file manager in the cloud. No one was using it because it was so hard to use. Now we have thousands of assets in Brandfolder. We use the templating tool so much and we use share assets daily.

-----

### "Ease of use" — 5.0/5

> **Chiara** | *16 April 2025* | Health, Wellness & Fitness | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Works really well, easy to use and simple
> 
> **Cons**: Maybe it's not super clear what the format of the picture is, or better it's not clear what the extension of the asset is. Sometimes i cannot understand at first weather it's a .tif or .jpg etc.

-----

### "Brandfolder simplifies digital asset management with reliable API access and CDN links" — 4.0/5

> **Estrella** | *17 August 2026* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Robust API and native CDN links simplify digital asset management and asset management across web applications. High security standards, short learning curve, and solid value for money streamline website and page creation.
> 
> **Cons**: CDN caching delays can cause minor bugs and issues during rapid UI updates. High enterprise tiering affects value for money, while asset management sync delays occasionally slow down website and page creation tasks.
> 
> Over 1 year, Brandfolder modernized our digital asset management and asset management. Security is top notch, website and page creation is faster, and the low learning curve outweighs occasional bugs and issues.

-----

### "BrandFolder Review" — 4.0/5

> **Midori** | *20 April 2026* | Food & Beverages | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: BrandFolder is great for asset management at a much deeper level than our previous tool, Google Drive. I love that you can add multiple custom fields to distinguish various types of assets and add multiple attachments to one asset. It's made our team be more strategic about how we organize. You can be a lot more specific when trying to find particular assets.
> 
> **Cons**: I still miss some of the simplicity and features of Google Drive, such as flexible folder structures. BrandFolder has its own version of this, called sections, but it's technically more rigid. With BrandFolder you have to be more strategic in how to set up overall structures, but it's not always obvious or intuitive on how to do that right away when your previous asset management tools were completely different. Also, it's easy to mess up BrandFolder tagging - sometimes you accidentally bulk tag the wrong assets, and it can take a while to figure out how to undo it.
> 
> Overall, BrandFolder has been fine for my team - the learning curve is just trickier than we had expected.

### "We are able to store thousands of images without them disappearing" — 5.0/5

> **Vani** | *17 May 2026* | Staffing & Recruiting | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Brandfolder has somehow managed to upload all of our thousands of photos into their photo library without loosing those photos. (The surprise) the AI Facial Recognition was also fairly effective in finding specific student models when I thought it would be a total failure. You are also able to create your own custom portal link and email those links to outside contractors and vendors saving me from having to send huge email attachments on a daily basis. They do allow you to save/download images in a variety of pre-defined aspect ratio formats as well. They do have a Canva Integration, I suppose that is ok.
> 
> **Cons**: Every time I close an image from a search, the whole page refreshes and returns me to the top of the image library. The amount of times I've wanted to toss my computer monitor out the window because of it. Thumbnails take way longer than normal to load. Each time they show us some new features during webinars they put them behind another wall for legacy accounts which is really frustrating.
> 
> With Brandfolder we're able to house all of these graphics within a central location so that multiple marketing departments across various branches are able to access and use approved graphics without needing to bother me.
