In this tutorial, we introduce the newly developed bulk operation features of CI HUB Connector Professional, designed to make managing large volumes of assets faster and easier!

Migrating files between different Digital Asset Management (DAM) systems can be convoluted and time-consuming. The process typically involves multiple logins, hopping between numerous windows, and tediously downloading and re-uploading gigabytes of assets.

When you’re busy juggling a dozen tasks, finding your files quickly is crucial. But if your company keeps assets in different platforms—like a Digital Asset Management (DAM) system, Product Information Management (PIM) system, cloud storage, or stock provider—locating the right file can become a nightmare.

Today, most companies will use at least one cloud drive or digital asset management system to store assets. But for the average team member looking for a simple file or presentation, the need for multiple log ins and searching through different systems is just too much work.

If you have already installed CI HUB Drive, you’ll want to get started with it right away! CI HUB Drive gives you instant access to your DAMs, PIMs, Drives and more on your desktop.

CI HUB Drive is a simple app to access your DAM, PIM and cloud storage systems directly from your desktop. No more log-ins and window hopping to find what you need – just the assets you need right at your fingertips!

DAM systems can handle identical file names without any problems. But to identify what's behind each asset, you will need to look at the metadata. This works fine within the DAM, but issues arise when a high-res output is needed.

Preparing documents for printing can be a time-consuming task, especially when dealing with multiple digital assets stored in different systems. However, with the CI HUB connector, this process can be significantly streamlined. Here’s a step-by-step guide on how to use CI HUB to efficiently prepare your documents for printing. 

Sketch is a leading digital design platform, beloved by UI/UX designers. It lets users create quick designs, prototypes and more with both a Mac and web app.

The Microsoft Office 365 apps are the industry standard tools for professionals at work. Most companies are using Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and Outlook, for their daily operations and collaboration – but one limitation can be accessing and using data from other sources. 

Google Workspace applications such as Google Slides, Google Sheets, and Google Docs are among the most popular work apps. Their user-friendly interfaces and collaboration features make them the go-to option for fast-moving teams. But using digital assets and from different content sources within these programs can be challenging.
