North Plains News & Articles

As the digital asset management (DAM) market evolves, DAM is shifting from a poorly-defined, siloed application to an integrated customer experience management (CXM) tool with four distinct use cases. In its Q2 2012 Forrester Wave Digital Asset Management for Customer Experience report, Forrester Research details the current state of the still-maturing DAM marketplace.

Createasphere is accepting submissions for its 3rd Annual DAMMY Awards, we're hosting the April DAM Tweet Jam tomorrow, we look at takeaways from OpenText Content Day and how Gannett plans to improve profits by leveraging its digital assets and North Plains acquires Xinet.

Canadian-based North Plains has acquired Xinet. The combination of the two sets of products will fill holes in the North Plains functional range that still exist despite its ongoing growth.

Toronto-based North Plains, LLC, announced an iPad app for the company's TeleScope, claiming it is the first digital asset management solution to market with a long-term mobile strategy. The new app brings tablets into the media workflow process, supporting the management of end-to-end digital asset lifecycle.  The company promises this will radically change the enterprise DAM landscape, and the iPad is just the beginning.

The DAM Lowdown returns this week with: Multiple Reports from the DAM NY 2011 Conference, an Update to the TeleScope DAM Platform from North Plains, a New Whitepaper from Widen and a New Web Module from Modula4 for Canto Cumulus.

Eric Raymond once used the metaphor of the cathedral and the bazaar to describe closed source software versus open source software. Who would have thought that one day you could apply the same metaphor to the modern-day marketing department?

We’ve been exploring Web Engagement Management (WEM) perspectives lately. This time we look at the role that Digital Asset Management (DAM) plays in engagement. And based on my experiences, I'll put a stake in the ground and say that most organizations and DAM vendors are missing out on the potential DAM+WEM love.

Earlier this year in an interview, George Grippo, VP Media Asset Management at North Plains, indicated that many Digital Asset Management (DAM) vendors are struggling to cope with the special requirements of video asset management.

While he didn’t explicitly say in the interview that North Plains (news, site), a rich media and DAM solution vendor, was working on a solution to do just this, this week’s release of their latest version of Telescope Video Manager shows that they were.

Available as an on-site or SaaS solution, the Telescope Video Manager provides a relatively inexpensive solution that even novices can use in the creation, editing and distribution of short and long form video across multiple platforms like YouTube and other social networks.

Digital Asset Management is an important part of any organization's content management strategy. Whether it's used to support web content management or enterprise content management, the requirements for a DAM solution have gone far beyond just a solution for storing digital assets.

With more and more organizations focusing on the Internet to attract, maintain and support their customers, CMSWire thought it was time to take a closer look at what is in store for digital asset management this year. And we went to some DAM providers to seek our answers.

According to North Plains, 2008 was a record year for them in terms of revenues and adoption of their Digital Asset Management platform. With the expected increase in the need for DAM solutions in the next few years, and the continued growth of online publishers, is North Plains set to grab a big chunk of the DAM market?

Digital asset management is coming to Europe. North Plains Systems, provider of digital asset management (DAM) and video asset management (VAM) software solutions, plans to expand its global channel of strategic partners over the coming months, including a European base of technology partners.

The expansion comes as a result of the increased demand of its TeleScope digital asset management platform, known for enabling securing access, management and distribution of all digital and rich media across an entire organization.
