Content Hub DAM

Content Hub DAM is a central repository for storing, managing and distributing final, deliverable digital assets (e.g., photos, videos, design files) used by UCAM to create quality experiences for our audiences. The DAM also provides the technical infrastructure behind the forthcoming Spartan Asset Portal.

Key Features

  • Upload assets to the DAM and tag them using a combination of automatically extracted metadata and manually applied tags
  • Review and approve/reject assets using a workflow system
  • Search for assets using traditional full-text search as well as a combination of facets and filters
  • Comment and annotate on assets for a collaborative review and editing process
  • Create multiple different variations of assets to deliver to different channels, including directly adding to a Sitecore website, using public links
