Q: Is Ethos a DAM limited to storing specific branding assets - only...
In other words, NOT a fully DAM (digital assets management tool) where the brands assets, e.g. videos, images, documents, etc. can be uploaded, stored and searched? The tier_1 storage capacity is 5 MB file brand asset limit - which is not meant to store videos etc. So, it's not comparable or an alternative to e.g. Brandfolder or Frontify etc. Am I right?
What is the definition of the 5 MB file brand asset limit?
Citation: "Digital asset management (DAM) for storing, sharing, and delivering information specific to branding"
Hey MyLTD,
With Ethos you can upload images and documents and host videos by adding their YouTube or Vimeo links. For images you can add tags to them. For every file and link added to Ethos you can search by text, title and tags. We recommend Ethos Agency or Ethos Enterprise that support up to 20MB per file with no upload limit on number of files.
Thanks,
Brian
Thanks, I see. So it's not a plattform where brands store and organize their entire assets library, instead of storing them on their own server. Its more like a "showroom" where the Brand can present themselves for the press etc but also be a go-to plattform with guidelines for how their logo, colors, fonts, values etc shall be utilized. Interesting indeed.
Ethos is a brand asset management where you'd store everything related to your brand such as brand copy, brand logos and images, brand colors and brand fonts. You can customize Ethos to be used as Media Kit or Press Kit too. It's not designed to store thousands of images and videos. While you can do that with Ethos we usually recommend to store non-critical files in Google Drive.
Thanks,
Brian
