Trends

Over the last 12 months

Too few audits to establish a trend. March 2026 averaged 57 across 9 queries, April 58 across 13. Acoustic Content rose 12 points month-over-month, but two data points cannot confirm durability.

FAQ

Digital Asset Management questions, answered

What is the best digital asset management software?+
AI models name no recurring DAM platform across 16 discovery prompts. Laserfiche scores 71 in featured citations and Docuware 66, but neither appears consistently enough to claim shortlist dominance. The category remains fractured across 87 tracked brands.
Which DAM platform wins the most comparisons?+
Acoustic Content and M Files tie at 46 average evaluation score, the highest in the category. M Files participates in 5 comparison queries, Acoustic Content in 4. Both sit above the 38 median, but no brand exceeds 50.
Is any DAM vendor gaining citation share?+
Acoustic Content rose 12 points between March and April 2026, the only brand flagged as rising. Two months of data cannot confirm a sustained trend, and the category average moved only 1 point (57 to 58) across the same window.
Why does Laserfiche score 71 in featured but only 31 in evaluations?+
Laserfiche appears in broad 'digital asset management' queries more than head-to-head comparisons. The 40-point gap signals strong general brand recognition but weaker AI confidence when users name specific alternatives.
How fragmented is DAM in AI citations?+
Completely. Zero brands reach shortlist status in 16 prompts, and 87 vendors compete for mention. The category shows 0% coverage rate and a 60.3 average score, meaning models spread citations thinly rather than converging on a winner.
Which DAM brands appear in the most comparison queries?+
Hyland Nuxeo leads at 6 comparison queries but scores only 28 on average. M Files follows with 5 queries and a 46 average. Sample size and performance diverge: more comparisons do not guarantee higher scores.
