Frequently Asked Questions

What is damdone?

damdone is a done-for-you Digital Asset Management (DAM) service.

Instead of selling software, we design and build a simple, branded asset portal that gives teams and partners one clear place to access approved brand assets.

Explore who it’s for.

Who is damdone not for?

damdone may not be the right fit if:

  • You need advanced enterprise DAM features (complex rights management, deep integrations, heavy automation)

  • You want to self-configure and administer a large DAM platform

  • You require per-user workflows across hundreds or thousands of users

Our focus is simplicity, speed, and usability.

How is damdone different from a traditional DAM?

Traditional DAM tools:

  • Are software platforms

  • Require onboarding and training

  • Use per-user pricing

  • Include many features most small teams never use

damdone:

  • Is built *for you*

  • Requires no training

  • Has simple, predictable pricing

  • Focuses only on what teams actually need

You can see how we think about this on our homepage.

What do I actually get with damdone?

You get a branded asset portal, which typically includes:

  • Logos (multiple formats and versions)

  • Brand imagery

  • Templates and files

  • Usage notes or basic guidelines

  • Clear categories and naming

  • A clean, branded layout

  • One shareable link

The exact structure depends on your needs.

Is damdone a brand portal?

Yes.

damdone can be used as a brand portal, brand center, or lightweight DAM.

It’s designed to be:

  • Easy to share

  • Easy to understand

  • Easy to keep up to date

How long does it take to set up?

Most damdone portals are live within days, not months.

Timing depends on:

  • How many assets you have

  • How organized they already are

  • Whether branding needs to be applied

We focus on getting you value quickly.

Do you help organize our assets?

Yes — that’s a core part of damdone.

We help with:

  • Asset structure

  • Naming conventions

  • Removing outdated or duplicate files

  • Grouping assets in a way that makes sense for real users

We don’t just upload files — we create clarity.

Do we need to prepare everything before starting?

No.

Many clients come to us with:

  • Messy folders

  • Mixed versions

  • Unclear naming

  • Missing structure

We’ll guide you on what’s needed and help clean things up as part of the process.

Where are our files stored?

damdone hosts your files in a separate, cloud-based storage service, independent from the website itself. Your asset portal links securely to this storage using encrypted URLs, ensuring files are protected while remaining easy to access for approved users. This separation improves security, performance, and long-term reliability.

Do we keep ownership of our assets?

Yes. Always. Your assets remain your assets, hosted securely on cloud infrastructure and never locked into proprietary software. damdone provides the structure, access, and presentation — not ownership or control over your files.

Can we update assets later?

Yes — updates are handled by damdone.

When assets change, you simply send us the new files. We:

  • Replace outdated versions

  • Maintain naming and structure

  • Ensure consistency across the portal

Clients do not edit portals directly. This keeps everything clean, consistent, and error-free.

Do we need to manage or maintain the portal ourselves?

No.

Damdone is a fully managed service.

You don’t need to:

  • Edit pages

  • Upload or organize files

  • Worry about breaking structure or consistency

We handle updates and maintenance so your asset portal stays reliable and correct over time.

Is damdone secure?

Yes.

damdone portals use:

  • Cloud-based hosting

  • Encrypted file URLs

  • Secure access links (public or password-protected)

Files are not embedded directly in the website. Instead, portals securely reference hosted assets, reducing risk and improving control. Security is handled without forcing users to create accounts or manage credentials.

Do users need accounts or logins?

No.

One of the biggest advantages of damdone is that:

  • There are no user accounts to manage

  • No passwords for every user

  • No onboarding sessions

This makes it ideal for partners, agencies, and external teams. Because portals are read-only for users, there’s no risk of accidental changes or version conflicts.

Are damdone portals read-only?

Yes.

All damdone portals are read-only for end users.

This ensures:

  • Brand consistency

  • No accidental deletions or overwrites

  • A stable, trusted source of truth

Updates are handled centrally by damdone.

Can damdone be used by agencies for their clients?

Yes — many agencies use damdone to:

  • Deliver branded asset portals to clients

  • Reduce back-and-forth about files

  • Avoid building custom asset pages from scratch

You can learn more about working with us by contacting us directly.

Can multiple teams or partners use the same portal?

Yes.

damdone is designed to work for:

  • Internal teams

  • External agencies

  • Freelancers

  • Partners

Everyone accesses the same approved assets.

What kinds of companies use damdone?

damdone works well for:

  • Growing startups

  • Marketing teams

  • Nonprofits

  • Professional services firms

  • Agencies and consultancies

Any organization that needs a clear, shared asset hub without heavy tooling.

How much does damdone cost?

Pricing depends on:

  • Scope of assets

  • Level of customization

  • Ongoing support needs

We focus on transparent, predictable pricing, not per-user fees. Learn more about our pricing.

Is there a free trial?

damdone isn’t a self-serve product, so there’s no traditional free trial.

Instead, we:

  • Walk you through how it works

  • Show real examples

  • Help you decide if it’s a good fit

How do we get started?

The first step is a short conversation.

We’ll discuss:

  • Your assets

  • Your team

  • Your goals

  • Whether damdone makes sense for you. Get in touch.

Why not just use Google Drive or Dropbox?

Shared drives are great for internal collaboration, but they:

  • Don’t communicate brand rules

  • Encourage duplication

  • Make sharing externally messy

  • Create confusion over versions

damdone sits on top of file storage and focuses on clarity, presentation, and consistency.

Can damdone replace our DAM?

For many small teams, yes.

If your needs are:

  • Simple access

  • Brand consistency

  • Easy sharing

  • No admin overhead

damdone can fully replace a traditional DAM.

What happens if we outgrow damdone?

damdone is designed to scale with you — but not trap you.

If your needs change:

  • Your assets remain yours

  • Your structure remains understandable

  • You’re free to move or evolve

We believe good systems don’t rely on lock-in.

How do we know if damdone is right for us?

damdone is right if you want:

  • Less complexity

  • Faster access to assets

  • A calm, reliable system

  • A partner, not just a platform

If that resonates, let’s talk.
