Bynder, the branding automation company, today announces that it has been included in The Forrester Wave™: Digital Asset Management for Customer Experience, Q3 2016 report by Forrester Research Inc. Bynder was among 12 select companies that Forrester invited to participate and the company was named a ‘Strong Performer’.
The report cited Bynder as an “up-and- coming vendor experiencing fast-growth and increased market traction.” The solution was described as combining “DAM with some marketing resource management and content marketing capabilities… Other areas of differentiation include its SaaS focus, and support for content marketing, collaboration, and digital rights.” The report also stated: “…customers have positive feedback on the solutions usability and agility.”
Chris Hall, CEO, Bynder comments, “With demand for more content and a surge in the number of marketing channels, every brand on the planet is facing the problem of managing a huge number of assets; files, images and video. Most marketing departments are a mess in this area.”
