Following the decentralization of content production: what strategy should you adopt to get content creators to upload their assets into your Digital Asset Management solution?
Originally, the production of multimedia content for companies was mainly the responsibility of communication departments. They organized photo and video shootings and commissioned their agencies to produce web, print and advertising content.

For many companies, a new collaborative organization is being set up with new types of content:

It also happens during events, where employees take pictures and share them directly on social networks.
In this article, we're going to explore the challenges of product content management and see in concrete terms how the PIM/DAM synergy responds to them, based on companies real-life examples.
