Keelvy vs enterprise DAM

A photo library that knows what the photo is of.

Enterprise DAM (digital asset management: software that stores, labels and shares your photos and creative files) — Bynder, Brandfolder and their peers — does that beautifully, and is priced for marketing departments. For a product brand the file is almost always a photograph of a product, and the moment the photo and the product live in one place, most of what a DAM does happens by itself.

What a real year costs

A brand with 40,000 product images, priced honestly.

Forty thousand shots at print resolution is roughly 320 GB before the resized copies, so this is not a starter-plan conversation on either side. Retailer includes 200 GB and storage extends 200 GB at a time, at $15 a month a block.

ENTERPRISE DAM~$18,000+A platform license for the year, typically quoted per feature and per user, with the setup on top. Product data, pricing and orders sit elsewhere and cost extra again.
KEELVY$1,100Keelvy Retailer at $920 a year, plus one 200 GB storage block at $15 a month — 400 GB in total. Media library, buyer galleries, per-channel crops, the full catalog, pricing, customers and orders.
Roughly fifteen times less, storage add-on included.
320 GB ESTIMATED AT ~8 MB PER IMAGE · STORAGE EXTENDS 200 GB PER BLOCK AT $15 A MONTH ON ANY PLAN

Switching

Move the folder, keep the filing.

Photos and files import with their names and folders intact, and linking them to products is where the filing effort stops being yours.
