Pros
It focused on media management without built-in fancy image editing tools. All the tag annotations are applied to the file metadata so my annotations are always travel along with my files. It occurs automatically and very fast, even for my Camera RAW files (NEF, DNG).
Any image or image set can be located by maximally 2-3 mouse clicks. My private photos separated from my portfolio images by several catalogs that I can open side-by-side like web-pages on the modern web-browsers.
And of course the unbeatable feature of the Daminion is its TRUE multi-user capabilities. I can manage the same photo archive with my wife - each one from his/her own computers without having duplicates and headache to remember about constantly sync the computers.
Supports a range of Adobe formats: InDesign (INDD), Illustrator (AI), Photoshop (PSD), Digital Negative (DNG) and PDF.
Cons
- It doesn't support Mac, although I don't care about this - probably someone would like to use Daminion Mac version.
- It doesn't support uploading to my Flickr although they have Export SDK and probably I'll write a small Daminion addon that helps to upload to Flickr soon.
Overall
Overall very promising piece of DAM especially because of its orienting to small teams and inexpensive price. There are a lot of DAM solution in the market but they are beyond the small teams budget and not offer so user-friendly interface like Daminion.
