Enterprise DAM Functionality... without the price tag

1st September 2025

Are you searching for your first Digital Asset Management system and require advanced functionality? Or are you frustrated that your current vendor is locking their best features behind pricey ‘enterprise’ product tiers?

This isn’t just an issue in the DAM sector, but the SaaS market as a whole, with solutions providers saving their best (and often most crucial) features and most comprehensive service and consultancy for the highest payers.

Fortunately, ResourceSpace does things a little bit differently.

We’re a company that was founded in the philosophy of open source software and this still informs many of the values we hold—which is why ResourceSpace is one of the most competitively priced DAM solutions around, with enterprise DAM functionality, consultancy and support available to our customers without the price tag.

What do we mean by ‘Enterprise’ DAM?

In the context of software as a service (SaaS), the term ‘enterprise’ is somewhat open to interpretation. Organisations require different things from their platforms based on the industry they’re in, so what you can expect to be considered ‘enterprise’ isn’t always easy to define. In many cases, SaaS vendors themselves will simply refer to certain service tiers as ‘enterprise’, even when the feature-sets and service levels of an enterprise solution doesn’t match.

However, broadly speaking ‘enterprise’ refers to a sophisticated system (or combination of systems) that offers advanced functionality. It’s likely to need comprehensive support and consultancy from the service provider too. But what about Digital Asset Management specifically?

An Enterprise DAM system goes beyond the typical features you’d expect as standard, such as cloud storage, metadata tagging, user access controls and basic version control, and takes organising, managing and sharing digital assets to the next level. 

What one DAM vendor will include as an enterprise-only feature might be available as standard from another.

We’d recommend that, rather than focusing only on specific features, you look for the ways in which a potential system can solve your problems and the functionality that will support that.

Enjoy advanced DAM features with ResourceSpace—without the high cost

As is standard for the DAM and SaaS sector, ResourceSpace pricing is tier based, with feature packages that scale depending on what you need. However, unlike many of our competitors, the increases in cost per tier are relatively low, while the price for our highest package (Platinum Cloud) is much lower than the DAM industry-standard.

As a result, your organisation can benefit from many enterprise-level DAM features you would have to pay tens of thousands of pounds per month for from one of our competitors. Since we’re open-source, and there’s no licensing fee to pay, you’re only paying for the support and consultancy which makes our offering very competitive.

This includes:

1. Competitively priced cloud storage that can scale with you
2. Our AI productivity tools as standard
3. High number of DAM users
4. Secure File Transfers (SFTP)
5. Single Sign-On (SSO)
6. API access
7. Advanced workflows configured
8. A dedicated high capacity server

Let’s take a closer look at each of these important DAM features, which ResourceSpace packages they’re available with and why you should care about them.

Cloud storage that can scale with you

Available with Team Cloud and above

Cloud storage isn’t an enterprise DAM feature, with even the most basic Digital Asset Management systems offering cloud storage as standard.

However, what you will find is that other vendors will typically tie cloud capacity to their product tiers, requiring you to choose higher end packages to get hold of increased storage space. You’ll get additional features thrown into the mix as well, but they might not be features you actually need—but will need to pay for them.

With ResourceSpace, our cloud storage can scale within your existing tier. This means that you only need to pay for the additional storage space, rather than extra features.

AI Productivity Tools

Available with Team Cloud and above

Our AI productivity tools are included in all our support packages and there are no limits on usage. 

Our integration with OpenAI allows for automated metadata generation and processing and we also have natural language searches that don’t rely on metadata, as well as reverse image searches, searches for visually similar images and facial detection and recognition.

Large number of DAM users

Available with Team Cloud and above

Something else we see our competitors doing is restricting the number of DAM users you can have with lower priced packages, or charging per month and per user. This means that as you grow your team, your Digital Asset Management costs can also increase rapidly. 

All our packages come with a generous user allowance and additional user bolt ons are available for each tier.

Secure File Transfers (SFTP)

Available with Business Cloud and above

Our secure SFTP drop folder allows you to upload large volume of files very quickly, saving DAM Managers hours previously spent uploading assets.

Single Sign-On (SSO)

Available with Business Cloud and above

Single Sign-On (SSO) is a feature you’ll often see as part of ‘enterprise-level’ DAM packages, but with ResourceSpace this is available with our Business Cloud tier.

SSO ensures enhanced security and more efficient management of users with a SAML-compliant SSO identify provider, while also supporting organisations with regulatory compliance if they require IT controls to be documented and the ability to prove that there are adequate methods in place to protect data.

API access

Available with Business Cloud and above

What’s better than unlocking out-of-the-box enterprise DAM functionality? Allowing you to develop your own. This is what ResourceSpace customers can do with access to our RESTful API, which is available with Business Cloud.

This will empower your developers to design bespoke functionality and integrations, without having to pay for higher product tiers.

Advanced Workflows configured

Available with Team Cloud and above

Your dedicated DAM Consultant will work with you to build bespoke workflows perfectly suited to your organisation. 

Multiple level approvals, download permissions per team, edit access and resource visibility are all included in the support package.  

A dedicated high capacity server

Available with Enterprise Cloud and above

We have a confession to make: there is one piece of functionality that we restrict to our higher product tiers, Enterprise Cloud (available as a bolt-on) and Platinum Cloud (as standard): a dedicated high capacity server that delivers ultimate performance.

However, our premium solutions are priced far below the highest packages of our competitors. Platinum Cloud is designed for global organisations with multiple offices and large teams, but at just £3,363 per month it is within the budgets of many smaller organisations that simply want the best and fastest DAM system available.

Bonus point: transparent pricing

One of the typical features of an enterprise DAM solution? You’ll have to speak to the vendor to find out the price. In fact, many of our competitors in the DAM space don’t even share the price of their lowest tier offering.

This isn’t the case with ResourceSpace, as we’re fully transparent with all of our pricing, including what features you get and the level of cloud storage.
