What do you like best?

CONTENTdm has a clean and easy to use interface.There are a number of customizable options to personalize the program for individual institutions. The fields can be limited to include just the ones that the institution uses most, and the OCR capability has been updated over the years to provide a much more accurate OCR transcript. The same file that was originally OCR in 2011 and featured more special characters than letters now has nearly flawless OCR.

What do you dislike?

It is not specific to just CONTENTdm, but I dislike how tedious it can be to update/correct records from batch uploads- there's no good fix to this, however, as it is the nature of the profession.

What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized?

CONTENTdm has allowed us to upload large numbers of archival collections for researcher and general use with a personalized UI. As documents are easily found and can be searched via OCR, the public has much greater access to archival resources. For users who prefer to browse, there are many different filters they can use to find what they are looking for. It is also helpful knowing that CONTENTdm has secure off-site storage of the digital resources, so you can rest-assured knowing your digital files are safe.
