In 2024's digital-first economy, it's never been more important for brand's to choose an intuitive video asset management solution that is able to drive growth and scale alongside their business. As consumers demand an ever-increasing volume of content, brands must be equipped to meet these expectations with a cutting-edge video asset management platform.
The shift to more video content is one of the most noticeable marketing trends in recent years. People are consuming videos more than ever before, and marketers have noticed—videos drive traffic, sales, and downloads; create leads, and increase time spent on pages.
According to an industry poll, 85% of marketers already use video as a key part of their marketing strategy, and 99% of these claim to continue using it in the future. Consumers prefer video content to any other form of content and video alone is right now the single best marketing tool to drive ROI, with a staggering 88% of marketers satisfied with the ROI of their video marketing efforts on social media.
But some companies struggle to incorporate video into their marketing strategies due to a lack of expertise, in-house creative resources, and crucially, easy-to-use video asset management software to create and distribute video content to a variety of channels. Digital asset management software for video is the single solution to these problems.
What is video asset management?
The best video asset management software provides a platform to meet the growing demand for video among today’s consumers. It combines video creation and modification tools to quickly create and update high-quality marketing videos, without requiring technical editing skills. Video assets are conveniently stored in a central library and can be retrieved, shared, and distributed across channels automatically to create exceptional content experiences.
Creating video content at scale is still challenging for many companies. By crafting each asset one at a time, as they have until now, they can’t keep up with the exploding volume and the rapid turnaround that digital marketing requires.
Designed to simplify the whole creative development process, from creation to distribution, video management software comes to the rescue of every company planning to increase their video output.

The case for Bynder’s video asset management solution
While we’re unashamedly biased about Bynder’s credentials as a top digital asset management for video solution, you don’t need to take our word for it. Bynder was named as a leader in The Forrester Wave™: Digital Asset Management (DAM) Systems, Q1 2024.
How does Bynder’s video asset management software benefit teams?
It all starts with the DAM
As with many other files aside from video, a digital asset management platform like Bynder gives teams a better way to organize their content so that everyone’s on the same page. Conveniently stored in the DAM, creative assets are always up-to-date, on-brand, and accessible by the right people.
Bynder uses a powerful file-filter taxonomy structure that is configured to your team’s specific needs, helping you find what you need in an instant. Video files are assigned metaproperties upon upload, which can then be used to filter results when you’re looking for that one particular video.
With Bynder’s video asset management capabilities, all files have version control. So, when a video is updated or edited, the original file is automatically overwritten, and there’s no need to reshare. And by leveraging collections or setting permissions and expiration dates, assets are shared conveniently and securely without ever compromising brand identity.
