Interesting to hear that AS is more a management tool rather than a digital asset management tool. Can you elaborate?

ContentDM is a bit long in the tooth, expensive, and does not manage and store original assets. Archivesspace has some overlap with asset management tools, but really it is intended to serve the archivist community. It is more of a management tool. We work with Islandora, a mashup of Drupal and the Fedora repository system. It is an end-to-end operation that offers everything from ingest to display. We offer hosting , training, customization and support. The software, of course, is free and open-source. We also work with Archivesspace.
