Single User Edition of Cumulus Returns

CreativePro Staff

Canto announced the return of Canto-branded digital asset management (DAM) for individuals. Based on Cumulus 8 technologies, Canto Single User offers state-of-the-art file management for professionals, hobbyists and smaller organizations that don’t need the network (multi-user) capabilities of Canto Cumulus 8.
Available for Mac and Windows, Canto Single User catalogs and manages any type of digital file—photos, office documents, audio, recorded TV and video, or anything else. XMP, IPTC and EXIF metadata are supported, and users can add any additional metadata they need. File-finding options include category browsing, keyword searching, complex query construction, file relations and more. Watermarking, a built-in image editor, and file processing options enable users to manage document masters and create on-the-fly variants that are copyright-protected, format or color converted, resized and more.
Perfect for today’s home media centers, Canto Single User can manage files stored on local drives, CDs/DVDs, networked computers or network attached storage appliances (NAS). Users can continue to search cataloged DVDs or other media, even when they’re offline.
Canto Single User will be sold and supported exclusively through select Canto partners, who will handle all promotions, sales distribution and support directly. Canto partners can optionally fine-tune Canto Single User for specific market needs, in addition to offering a standard configuration suitable for general use.
Users of MediaDex (formerly Cumulus Single User edition), will be offered upgrade paths to Canto Single User through Canto partners.
