Save time and ressources with a Kontainer DAM-system

Better overview from Denmark to North Africa

In an organization that large files, graphic material, sales material, presentations, product information and manuals are shared in a constant flow between departments, it can therefore be an unmanageable and time-consuming process to find the right material.

In fact, employees spend an average of 8% of their working day searching for information and materials, which equates to approximately 93 hours per year per employee.

In addition to an unnecessary large time consumption, there is also a risk of outdated or incorrect material is used when new brochures or images are not available in the correct folders or the relevant people.

All-in-one system

Systematizes and creates an overview of your material

With Kontainer AVK can create unique segmented links and files to their various users, depending on who is to use the material, so that the customer, seller or product manager only see the material they need to use. Meanwhile the search function is enriched with so much information that it only takes a few seconds to find the desired material. Kontainer’s user-friendly design provides a good overview of AVK’s material, which was previously stored on the company’s internal network drive in uncategorized folders.

“We have organized all of our images! We can easily manage that everyone uses the correct and latest material. With Kontainer’s user-friendly design, we also ensure that all our users can search for material themselves without difficulty.”

”Our workflow has been simplified, I personally get far less queries on images. It has been very time-saving and we have a much better overview of our material, since implementing Kontainer”

An easier workday for everyone across the organization

Spent up to 20 hours a week on file sharing

Anne Dorte and her team experienced, before switching to Kontainer, that far too many hours were spent on inquiries about where to find pictures or sales material. Therefore, they made an analysis of their internal processes. Here it turned out that the marketing department spent close to 20 hours a week searching for the right material for the right people.

With Kontainer’s user-friendly DAM system, AVK’s marketing department today experiences fewer disruptions and a better workflow. Kontainer have been implemented in the company’s marketing and sales departments in Europe and North Africa, but will eventually be extended worldwide.

Timesaving integrations creates a lot of value

Streamlines your workflow

AVK International has taken advantage of the fact that the Kontainer DAM-system is integration friendly by integrating the PIM-system Perfion, which they already used with Kontainer. This means that product images are automatically enriched with all the necessary information such as tags, naming and descriptions when they are uploaded to Kontainer. The integration has also meant that Anne Dorte and her colleagues in the marketing department have less interruptions and an overall better workflow today.

"We are very happy with our implementation of Kontainer. They are very proactive, what we fell for is that it was Danish, manageable and that it was easy for both us and our users, and then for a really competitive price, the journey has only been positive at this point."

Kontainer ensures that your material is up-to-date

Put an end to using the wrong material

”We use it especially in connection with distribution of our images, drawings, InDesign-documents, PowerPoint presentations, datasheets, product manuals and brochures. The fact that customers now can access these things themselves is brilliant, we are also sure that our material is always up to date. We avoid a lot of traffic going back and forth between departments, you can quickly generate a link to the relevant people, and then they will have access to the exact material that they need.”

Automates your work tasks

“Our workflow has been simplified. I personally get far less queries on images, and when working in InDesign, I know where the images are and can easily transfer them directly into my applications. Everything has become a lot easier, and it will only get easier in the future when we expand to more divisions. If you call them regarding a problem or a challenge, they will quickly solve it for you. We have had Kontainer specified to our needs such as specific search criteria, automatic file placement and automatic tagging which has made searching for images much or other materials much easier as it has improved our workflow tremendously
