We apologize for the delays with this announcement, but the development of multi-user photo management systems such as Daminion requires significant efforts – efforts that necessitated more time than we had expected.

Daminion - Digital Media Management System

Some quick feature highlights of Daminion 0.7 Alpha:

– 30-plus tags to help you quickly describe and filter your content with just a few mouse clicks (in PicaJet, only categories were available)
– Full Support for XMP, EXIF, IPTC metadata. Any changes of file properties (tags) will automatically be reflected on the file metadata (if the metadata writing is supported by the file media format)
– Reading/writing hierarchical and complex tags from/to metadata
– Quick, advanced and saved searches
Version control
– Export on demand with transformation presets
– Powerful properties panel
– New interface with draggable panels and various view modes.
– Simultaneous works with multiple catalogs that feature different tabs, similar to modern web-browsers that can open web-pages
– Catalogs lock in relative paths to imported files. No worries over losing links to your files even if you store your folders on an external storage drive. If files or catalogs are re-located, all links inside the catalogs will always correctly point to files on the same drive or in the same folder.
– A full list of supported media formats can be found here: https://bit.ly/ggikan

Features not yet implemented:

– Daminion Server: Support for shared catalogs and control user access
– Sending files by email (however, you can prepare the files to send by email and copy them to a folder)
– Stacks: Grouping similar assets
– Quick tag assigner
– Custom tags
– Export customization
– General properties
– Help

Daminion dam data access management system is now available for download and testing for participants in the testing program.

We hope you enjoy Daminion.

Murat Korkmaz is CEO and co-founder of Daminion. He has been working on the same problem since 2003 — helping teams find the files they already own. The first version shipped as PicaJet, a single-user cataloguing tool for photographers, designers and marketers; customers kept asking for a version their whole team could use, and that request became Daminion, the on-premise DAM the company builds today.

He writes here about product decisions and their trade-offs: why a feature shipped the way it did, where the DAM category is heading, and which problems software actually solves versus the ones that need a change in how a team works. Product claims in articles published on this site are reviewed by him before release.

Based in Hallandale Beach, Florida. He posts more frequently on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/korkmazov/
