This video went viral in our offices yesterday - When a glass manufacturer predicts a future where every surface is an app, diplays media, or runs media-intensive software, then the future of digital asset management will be exiting indeed!

The year 2012 begins with exciting news – not that the world is ending, but that we have introduced the new mediacockpit Ribbon for Office 2007/2010! The new plugin complements the range of existing modules with one that has been a frequent customer request in recent months.

Direct login possible
Full-text and attribute searches, category navigation, access to media selections
Drag- and -drop of images directly in the document
Multimedia (audio/video) integration with the "insert" button

DAM Group Relaunch: moving foward and looking back

Wed, 02 Nov 2011 00:00:00 GMT

For nearly 8 years, our homepage had remained fairly static; the time is ripe for change. Two months ago, we relaunched the DAM Group homepage in German. The focus is on our new platform product "mediacockpit". We have already recieved much positive feedback - customers and partners alike are finding interesting insights into our new integration platform and are profiting from our experiences with the daily challenges in media asset and product data management. Now the entire site is available in English as well. We are looking forward to even more feedback from our customers and friends the world over.

And today we celebrate another anniversary of sorts: the following article (only in German, sorry!) about media asset management and highlighting our product "Media Suite" at Mercedes-Benz Accessories was published on 02. November 2001. That is 10 years ago today! At that time, we were a small startup and media asset management was an emerging field. Today, we are older and wiser: we have focused on our strengths and remain an industry leader today. Customers like the Mercedes-Benz Accessories still rely on our products and solutions - maybe our experiences over the past 10 years can help your organization as well?

New times, new output channels: visit the Apple App Store to see some of the latest and greatest results from our customers and projects: Schaeffler's InfoPoint (for iPad / iPhone and soon Android) and the launch of the successful and very design-oriented catalog app for Depot Online with integrated online shop feature. It is mediacockpit that builds the foundation for central media, text and video content management, and emerges as a clear winner: efficient, cost effective and with exceptional support for brand communication in new distribution channels.

We have taken these events and many more important developments in our product strategy as an opportunity to thoroughly overhaul to our web site.
**We went live at 6:00 PM on September, 23rd.**
Modern, fresh and easy to find. Yes - and certainly a necessary step in enlightening our visitors to our highly successful integration platform mediacockpit: the culmination of 15 years of MAM, PIM and publishing experience.

We are happy to welcome you - and to answer any questions you might have.

Media Asset Management was yesterday.

Confidential remains confidential, public is public. Nothing is lost, nothing is more mixed up. Also the uniform surface contributes to this - in addition to the sophisticated, clear rights management, which prevents errors and minimizes the training.

A further advantage of mediais exceptional flexibility. It was designed from the outset so that individual solutions and enhancements are just as easily feasible as adaptation to the respective corporate design. So, it fits a seamlessly in the typical business processes. mediacockpit is your step into the future. It makes your media liquid and draws optimum use of the previously fallow potentials. Affected this by positively in a short time costs and productivity.
