The zetcom and Fotoware partnership for improved Collection Management

29. July 2024 Amalie Widerberg

We’re proud to announce that as of this summer, Fotoware is an official partner of zetcom, further strengthening our connection with cultural institutions worldwide. The partnership aims to make the process of integrating Digital Asset Management (DAM) and Collections Management Systems (CMS) more seamless, offering organizations the opportunity to purchase connected software as a single, scalable suite.

 

About zetcom and MuseumPlus

With years of experience in helping cultural institutions with the management of collections data, zetcom is the preferred partner for over 2,500 organizations in need of collections and archives management software.

With clients such as the Louvre Paris, the national Museums of Norway, Sweden, and Switzerland, Deutsches Museum, Rhode Island School of Design (RISD), the Australian War Memorial and many more, zetcom has leading presence amongst Galleries, Libraries, Archives and Museums (GLAMs) worldwide. Their offerings include the well-known CMS MuseumPlus, which is the preferred choice for collections management in the GLAMs space.

— “Integrating MuseumPlus with DAM has been a sought-after functionality for years. Several MuseumPlus customers, including Queensland Art Gallery, Liechtenstein Princely Collections, and Rhode Island School of Design, have already implemented this integration between Fotoware Content Platform and MuseumPlus.”

The integration allows users to automatically fetch data from the CMS while browsing content within the DAM, and vice versa, by sending visual representations of selected artifacts back to the CMS. This ensures a single source of truth for all visuals.

— “With the partnership in place, the seamless experience of having an integrated suite of best-in-class systems will be more easily available to our clients, significantly enhancing the functionalities for anyone with a DAM and CMS combination.”

— “We build this partnership on proven successful implementations with several customers, and an already developed and tested integration. That’s probably one of the best recipes for a good and long-lasting partnership.”

Streamlining GLAM workflows

When looking for ways to solve a challenge, it’s beneficial to find one vendor offering a complete solution, instead of looking for combinations that may not work together as intended. However, many cross-functional platforms lack the complexity needed to support the digital strategies of modern GLAMs.

Therefore, we aim to facilitate perfect combination with this partnership by offering advanced standalone software that can be seamlessly integrated and sold as one complete solution.

— “Our customers and future customers will greatly benefit by gaining smoother, more efficient workflows across systems. They can look forward to reduced complexities, higher data accuracy, and improved accessibility to both digital assets and collections data. This partnership is about empowering institutions to focus more on their core mission of preserving and showcasing cultural heritage, rather than being slowed down by technological hurdles.”
