Our customers represent a broad range of industries and business requirements. Confidence in our solutions is reflected in the large number of major newspapers and magazine publishers, major global corporations as well as charities and smaller businesses adopting our solutions.

The challenge:
To reduce time and money spent on searching for images and articles held on CDs by the 30 magazine titles
To collect existing and new images and articles and provide fast, easy access to all media files across the organisation
To reduce complex and lengthy production and reproduction processes
To manage the electronic version of magazines which are in PDF format
To replace manual billing processes for images and articles used in the magazines

The solution:
An image, text and PDF management system which collects and stores media files, providing fast, easy searching, saving time, manpower and delivering greater efficiency
The solution allows high-speed delivery of the PDF version of the magazines to all Mac and PC users
Use of ‘free text’ rather than ‘key word’ searching provides concise, descriptive and flexible searches giving targeted results. This means less time wasted locating images with more time available to focus on value-added tasks
Once the magazine is produced, all assets are stored, indexed and linked together to allow rapid finding and reusing of images and articles. Therefore, once created or purchased, they can be used many times and the cost of each use is reduced. As the same asset isn’t created or bought each time, it saves the business valuable time and money
Each image and article has their history, usage, author / photographer and copyright information linked to the specific page in the magazine. This provides an easy-to-use and fully indexed solution which assists in the finding, billing and reuse of a magazines’ assets profitably
The password-protected solution provides delivery of images and articles, from any magazine within the business, to those with agreed access. This creates control and prevents misuse of the valuable images and articles

Our customer says:
“I’ve never seen that kind of service with a supplier… It was an excellent delivery, and that’s been the story ever since. Working with Picdar has been a great comfort…Once users started to see what the system could do, they wondered how we’d ever lived without it.”
