MoMA is using NetXposure Image Portal http://www.netx.net/ It is SQL based and browser accessed. After much internal work, our database administrator has it nicely plumbed to TMS. Our DAM currently holds 60,000 images of collection objects and we are now beginning to load another 18,000 installation views. We?ve done an initial limited roll out with good response and further tweaking, and we officially launch the program on April 6. The interface has something of a beta feel, although getting better. Although the vendor has limited experience with cultural heritage institutions they have, sometimes slowly, responded to our needs. This solution was considerably less expensive than going with the DAM frontrunners.

This link has a good summary (as of 2007/2008 I think) of the commercial DAMS market and trends: http://tiny.cc/K6q6s Will -----Original Message----- From: mcn-l-bounces at mcn.edu [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Perian Sully Sent: Friday, March 20, 2009 11:13 AM To: Museum Computer Network Listserv Subject: [MCN-L] Need a list of DAMS options Hi everyone: Sorry if this is a redundant question, but we're sticking our toe into DAMS territory soon and I'm being asked to outline all of the various options. I am currently aware of: Commercial DAMS: Extensis Luna Insight me Open Source DAMS: OpenEdit ResourceSpace Razuna (Omeka & Wordpress) I'm specifically looking for the range of products available, along with reviews. We're trying to figure out how to get the DAMS to talk to our CIS (IDEA at ALM, which uses MS SQL and does have some sort of API available with it, so it should be do-able), but we'll likely need to get a programmer to do that for us. Thanks in advance for your help. Feel free to reply to me offlist. I'll be setting up a Google Docs to organize the information, and I'd be happy to share that list once it's available. ~Perian Perian Sully Collections Information Manager Web Programs Strategist The Magnes 2911 Russell St. Berkeley, CA 94705 Work: 510-549-6950 x 357 Fax: 510-849-3673 http://www.magnes.org http://www.musematic.org http://www.mediaandtechnology.org _______________________________________________ You are currently subscribed to mcn-l, the listserv of the Museum Computer Network (http://www.mcn.edu) To post to this list, send messages to: mcn-l at mcn.edu To unsubscribe or change mcn-l delivery options visit: http://toronto.mediatrope.com/mailman/listinfo/mcn-l The MCN-L archives can be found at: http://toronto.mediatrope.com/pipermail/mcn-l/ _______________________________________________ You are currently subscribed to mcn-l, the listserv of the Museum Computer Network (http://www.mcn.edu) To post to this list, send messages to: mcn-l at mcn.edu To unsubscribe or change mcn-l delivery options visit: http://toronto.mediatrope.com/mailman/listinfo/mcn-l The MCN-L archives can be found at: http://toronto.mediatrope.com/pipermail/mcn-l/ ______________________________________________________________________ This email has been scanned by the MessageLabs Email Security System.
