List of DAM Products Tech Specs by Vendor

To try and make sense out of the DAM space and the products that are on offer from a technical perspective, I have created the Google Spreadsheet project which lists DAM products tech specs by Vendor. It is my hope (and some can say it already has) that this will become a collaborative effort by the DAM community to parse this information down to its most boiler plate facets.

Its a no frills, no promotional sales language, vendor agnostic, approach to just getting to the basics of the technologies on offer. The focus of the list is on the technology aspects of the products as opposed to the features or strengths. Currently, the document has 70+ collaborators including myself (and we are adding more every day). Please contact me if you like to be added to the list of collaborators or visit the link and request access here.

Below is a list of each column featured on the DAM List:

About me:

Metadata and Taxonomies are my thing. I spend an awful lot of time drinking coffee and having existential dilemmas on how to categorize what the hell I do for a living.

Nerdy things I blog about for other nerdy nerds: metadata and taxonomies, content structure governance, Digital Asset Management and Content Management (DAM/CMS), technology transitions and business change, professional development, social media privacy, and usability for information retrieval.

Nutshell: I'm an ex-BMXer that now knows a helluva a lot about metadata and taxonomies and spends her idle time picking locks, lurking 7chan, playing competitive soccer, wishing she was in an impromptu music video, or teaching people to ride a Segway at HOPE. Yup, that's how I roll (literally).

Disclaimer: This is a personal weblog and does not represent the thoughts, intentions, plans or strategies of my employer (any of them). It is solely my opinion lame as you might think it is.
