Image Vault Digital Asset Management System 4.0

Image Vault empowers organisations to efficiently manage the process of sharing and applying corporate images, photographs, logos and other documentts.

The web based system provides a simple, intuitive interface for creating, managing and publishing digital imagery. It enables the upload of original artwork including PDF, GIF, EPS, TIFF and JPG files, automatically indexing the assets and creating MS Office and Web versions of the files. This allows users to select the correct images at the correct resolution without the need to know the mechanics of digital imagery.
