MediaValet is an exceptional tool for our end users. We upload the images and they find them. Most often with great ease. Had we known how many images we would be adding, and our different audiences from the start, we might have set up our file structure a little differently.

• Manages photos via the use of tags
• It's intuitive, so even a user who has basic computer skills can utilize it.
• Punch listing - a great tool to do your inspection with Subbies, take pics, load them into a form, and workflow the form to them.

Incentivized

• We love Portals, as a means of creating, editing and sending collections of pictures
• The tagging system allows for end users to find our photos, without knowing where we put them
• The system is quick
• Apart from our initial edit for size, customers gets full sized uncompressed files

• To send the induction template to every sub contractor to fill out and send back to us before entering site. Once we have the basic information we then can do the induction and sign off after completing the induction. Each induction could generate a number and it could form a list of names to a number on a register.
• Site safety audit. If we could carry over a problem to create a list that has to get signed off ones done. That would be very handy.
• Every one of our files generated is to be able to be re detected back on our own business server.

• More flexibility/features when using Lightboxes
• Replace an old version of an asset with a newer one without having to check-out, then check-in
• Sharing an asset or a set of assets via a share link -- would be great to generate shorter, dynamic URLs for sharing as opposed to the longer string URLs it currently generates

I could NEVER go back to life before Dashpivot.

The product is the best we've seen. Others on staff who use our partner's DAMs have commented that our Media Valet DAM is far and away the best they've seen. I can't say enough about Media Valet's customer service. It has been consistently helpful, quick to respond and very reliable.

It is so simple. I put off getting an online system for sooooo long because I dreaded the thought of getting a new system, having to set it all up and having to teach everyone how to use it. I also envisaged me being the port of call every time it stopped working or people didn't know what they were doing. I now wish I had done it a long time ago. The set up was so basic. I had 45 minutes of training over the phone in front of my PC and I was set to go! By the end of the day, I had already gone from "I'm just going to start off with Site Diaries and implement everything else gradually" to "this is bloody amazing, everything is now on Dashpivot and everyone is using it!" We converted our entire site and internal systems over to Dahpivot by Site Mate in the space of a day! True story.

New staff is able to use our DAM with an hour of training.

At the beginning of my use of the phone application, it did not support the Arabic language I contacted customer service and my request was taken seriously, and within a short period of time, a phone application was updatet to support the Arabic language

The team is very responsive to requests and makes a point to provide feedback or status updates before confirming solutions.

Implementation was super easy and dare I say fun! I thoroughly enjoyed the implementation process. We all got excited coming up with suggestions and ideas for what we could implement next.

I mainly use MediValet to send special medical images to our partners. Collaboration with other companies is very simplified through MediaValet. The qualitatively uploaded images can be excactly assigned and organised through various filters. It is much clearer and easier for our partners to understand when the images have been accurately labelled and assigned beforehand.

Some onsite audit tools are hard to use, they do not transfer well to a mobile platform. Dashpivot is easy to read and use on any mobile device. Additionally other platforms make the document build cumbersome, DashPivot is simple and easy to develop or copy new tools.

They really are very different platforms. MediaValet offers much more control over who has access to files and how they are downloaded, as well as offering conversions of some files such as JPEG to PNG or TIFF. Also, through user profiles, you can grant access to a specific path to some users and not others, so it has a lot of customization. The other platforms are just for storage and sharing but there is no user control.

• Easier to send specific files to other people
• Can combine different assets in an aesthetically pleasing website like platform with Portals to present
• Gives peace of mind knowing that our files could be deleted from our system, but MediaValet has the backup
