What makes ResourceSpace different?

27th May 2022

The Digital Asset Management (DAM) sector has grown a lot in the last few years.

While the industry used to be dominated by a handful of big names, now there are hundreds of vendors. According to G2.com, that number is almost 250.

With this many options to choose from, why do so many leading organisations choose ResourceSpace - and what makes us different?

We're completely open source

Open source software has its code freely available - but how does that benefit our users?

There are lots of benefits to using an open source DAM, particularly when it comes to innovation, but most significantly it means ResourceSpace is completely free. All you pay for is customer and technical support, as well as any cloud storage required (above the first 10GB).

Read more about why ResourceSpace being open source is great news for our customers.

We're employee owned

Montala, the company behind ResourceSpace, has been 100% employee owned since October 2020.

Great news for our team, but it benefits our users too.

Our employees are literally invested in the success of the organisation, and this organisational model has been shown to deliver improved business outcomes, as well as staff that stick around for longer. All of this means our workforce is more dedicated, enthusiastic and committed to delivering exceptional customer service.

We're on track to achieve B Corp certification

We're on track to achieve B Corp certification thanks to our commitment to high performance standards, accountability and transparency.

Organisations that achieve B Corp certification have:

• Demonstrated high social and environmental performance. To do so, the organisation must score 80 or above on the B Impact Assessment and pass B Lab's risk review. We scored over 100.
• Made a legal commitment by changing their corporate governance structure, ensuring they're not just accountable to shareholders, but all stakeholders. We've already updated Montala's Articles of Association so we must consider all stakeholders.
• Shown to be transparent by making performance information, measured against B Lab's standards, publicly available.

We take our environmental responsibilities seriously

We've worked hard to not only reduce our carbon footprint, but to actually have a positive impact on the planet. We fully offset our carbon usage, while we use green energy across the entire business.

We're also an Ecologi partner, and we've helped plant over 40,000 trees, as well as played a part in funding four wind farm projects and a hydropower plant in India.

For organisations looking to reduce their own carbon footprint, ResourceSpace is an ideal choice of DAM vendor.
