Extensis has updated its digital asset management (DAM) software to add new features for previewing and selecting graphics, enhanced file format support, and easy installation.

Portfolio Server 9.5 includes features and improvements that streamline management of large collections of digital media.

“In almost every company there are people responsible for maintaining collections of images and documents that need to be accessed by others,” said Davin Kluttz, Senior Product Manager at Extensis.

“It”s important that these files are easily available to others, including those unfamiliar with the collection. Otherwise, time and money is lost when these files cannot be located”.

Portfolio Server 9.5 makes finding digital media extremely easy by providing a central place to locate and use files via the web or Mac and Windows desktop software. This release further improves efficiency with simplified setup options and new Web Client features for viewing and selecting files.

The powerful MediaRich media-processing engine from Equilibrium that is included with Portfolio Server has been updated along with support for additional file and metadata formats including Adobe SWF and DNG.

Portfolio Server 9.5 is available for $US6,416.
