Cloud-based digital asset management and sharing platform
4.71/5 (387 reviews)The have great customer support, the setup was pretty quick and it's easy to make mass edits.
Pros
I really liked the easy to use interface and the unlimited guest users. Those were two key points during our decision making.
Cons
I would love for users to be able to send a shareable link of their personal boards and the personalized template piece saved to their personal board as well. I think that would be very helpful for sales.

My overall experience with Brandfolder has been good. There are some pros and cons to the database but overall I think it is a good place to house assets for smaller companies. It makes organizing assets easy and convenient. But as our company scales, it has become a little trickier.
Pros
I like the overall layout of Brandfolder. It is easy to use and to navigate. I think it is very user friendly and has some great features and integrations like Slack. It was easy for me to organize all of my company's assets and customer service has always been fast and very responsive to any question or concern I have had. The software is always improving and updating and they are always adding new features to Brandfolder. Brandfolder is a great to house all of our company's assets in one centralized location.
Cons
I least liked the tagging system in Brandfolder. I am not a fan of automatic tagging because some of the tags that automatically pop up arent useful to how we sort our assets. It is a feature I can do without. Our team also had some concerns and dislikes when it came to Adobe Integration. It wasnt as seemless as we would have liked it to be. I think those are two areas that need improvement.

Wonderful! I can't say enough good things about Brandfolder!
Pros
It's such an intuitive program and easy for anyone to understand and use.
Cons
It took a while to setup from the ground up, but once you have a base organization structure down pat then it's easy to add to and maintain.

The overall experience with Brandfodler was great from start to finish. It met the needs that we had and our employees use it very often.
Pros
Brandfolder is a very easy-to-use and customizable platform that was perfect for creating our company's brand portal. Following the merger and re-brand of our company, we wanted to create a brand portal is to centralize all digital assets, and having an efficient system to manage them is paramount to maximize productivity. As all digital assets are controlled in one place, we can be confident that off-brand or out-of-date assets are no longer available to employees. After reviewing other platforms, we decided to choose Brandfolder as our digital asset hub given the customization, security, and permission levels.
The onboarding team and support were super helpful every step of the way and ensured that we were ready to have a successful launch for our employees. The program is very intuitive and our employees were able to set up their account and use the platform without and training.
Features we liked the most:
Super customizable to the brand (logos, colors, fonts, etc.)
Brand guidelines (set up in the system which links from the Collection)
User rights (different teams can see different assets)
Vanity URL (custom to our brand)
Insights & analytics (easy reporting, can see which assets are being viewed/downloaded the most)
Cons
The brand guidelines were one of our favorite features, however, it was not the easiest to design. While there are templates to use and plug and play, we wanted ours to be highly designed to match our brand. To do so, CSS coding is needed. The support team was great in sharing some code ideas from other brand guidelines they have seen. The coding was fairly easy to learn and we were very happy with the end product.
