Brandfolder vs. Opal

If you're a small, medium-sized, or even big organization, Brandfolder can help you with digital asset and identity management (DAM). It is user-friendly and offers a lot of options that will immensely improve your workflow. It easily integrates with other applications and the whole team can access the files

If a team can afford to pay for Opal and dedicate resources to properly onboard everyone and maintain organization, I'd absolutely highly recommend it.

• Documents such as contact lists and cooperative programs
• Featured listings, agents, and maps are just a few examples of creative advertising concepts
• Provides organization

• Allows me to present visuals of content that's easy to understand.
• Review processes are made simple and are streamlined.
• Helps me stay within character count when planning content.

• If you have a large collection of images, like we do, and you go 2 or 3 pages deep and select an image, then close the image, the collection snaps back to page 1. It's pretty frustrating.

• I would love it if Opal integrated social publishing into their tool.
• It would be beneficial if at least some basic analytics were brought back into the tool so we could then review content performance within the same tool as creative teams.
• I've felt like at times the process of creating and sharing presentations was a bit tedious. It'd be nice if was a bit simpler.

Brandfolder has the best UI/UX for the end user and the administrator. The UI/UX is modern and not just a recreation of a folder system like old OS file systems. Brandfolder is so visual based and loads so quickly that makes it easy for users to find their assets quickly. The templating is totally unique when compared to other options on the market. The tagging system, duplicate detection, collections, and stacking files into an asset makes the platform efficient to manage and use

I've used Percolate and it's said to be a competitor of Opal, but in reality, it's a tool I've struggled with. It's fine for day-to-day scheduling and publishing, but lacks the flexibility and functionality of Opal. Opal really feels like it was built by storytellers where Percolate feels like it was built purely by an engineering team.
