Why?
Why is a Umbraco + DAM integration important?
Without integration, managing images in the CMS often becomes fragmented and time-consuming. With Kontainer + Umbraco, your editors have a direct link to the DAM, ensuring they always work with the correct, up-to-date content. This results in faster publishing, fewer errors, and a consistent brand identity.
