OpenEdit DAM is now EnterMedia for Digital Asset Management

New UI: With all of the new features included in EnterMedia, we needed a new, cleaner UI to support them. We have tried to focus on using screen real-estate more effectively, removing clutter, and providing straight-forward, intuitive ways to complete tasks.

Multiple Catalogs: EnterMedia allows you to combine more than one catalog. Each “catalog” is essentially an entire instance of the OpenEdit Archive and can be customized with its own properties, views, layouts, and more.

Cross-Catalog Searching: Specify which catalogs you want to search across with the newest version of our advanced search interface. This allows you to locate your digital assets quicker than ever by searching across all of your catalogs with only one click of the search button.

Dynamic Search Query Builder: Dynamically add any field to be used in a search to build completely customized search queries tailored to your data.

Saved Search Queries: Don’t rebuild complex search queries: save them! You can save your custom-built search queries to quickly re-run the search anytime.

Multi-Record Editing: Select as many records as you want from any browsing or search results page and categorize or edit the meta-data for all of the selected records at once.

Improved Record Editing: All meta-data editing can now be done directly from the details page, including categorization.

Albums: Collection baskets are out, Albums are in. Albums work similar to collection baskets. You can now add multiple records to an album using the same selection tools used for multi-record editing.

New Upload Tool: Adding records is easier than ever. Using our new Advanced Upload tool, you can click and drag files right into your browser and they will be uploaded to EnterMedia. Drag entire folders to have a record created for each file.

Preview From Results Page: Preview an image directly from a search results page by clicking the magnifying glass

Slideshow: View any set of results, whether from browsing or searching, as a full-screen slideshow.

CSV Exports: Export a detailed list of your search results to CSV for use in spreadsheet applications.

Video Support: Uploaded videos will be encoded into a compatible format, allowing in-browser video previews

Audio Support: play audio files in your browser directly from EnterMedia.

PDF Page Previews: view any page of a multi-page PDF document.

Image Orientation Detection: EnterMedia will check for information about the orientation of your images, as well as allow you to adjust the orientation yourself.
