Hello all,
 
I think it depends upon the amount of information you wish to have associated with your assets and the sophistication of your users re: their understanding of the technology.  In our case, TMS works very well for our 45,000+ images and documents, and as we expand into the other modules and expand the number of TMS users, the benefits of keeping all assets in one place is growing as well.

Morning All,

 

I was wondering if anyone out there used TMS as their institutions Digital Asset Management tool?  Any thoughts on its effectiveness and any other systems you might be using would be a huge help.

 

Thanks!

Elizabeth
