Trend #4: Rich media management

• Many organizations which previously haven’t

managed rich media assets are taking a

second look.

• But the “Digital Asset Management” has

different definitions, depending on which

vendor you speak with.

• Video is driving interest in rich media

management.

• DAM will revert to its original definition (for

media and publishing), while newer rich media

management products will converge with

CXM.
