Adobe DAM, connected to your storefront

Digital asset management fails for an unglamorous reason: the correct asset is harder to find than the copy on someone's desktop. Adobe Assets solves that when it is genuinely wired in — to Creative Cloud where the work is made, and to Adobe Commerce where it is used. We do the wiring. Clients typically cut campaign setup time by around 60%.

Generate multiple formats, sizes and variations automatically for every channel, keeping brand output consistent without manual work.

Version Control & Approval

Full version history and streamlined approval workflows ensure only approved assets ever reach your commerce platform.

Brand Asset Management

Controlled access to approved logos, imagery and guidelines through brand portals that keep every team on-message.

Usage Analytics

Track asset performance across channels and spot optimisation opportunities to inform smarter creation and management decisions.

One platform forcommerce and content.

Adobe Assets is built directly into Adobe Commerce as a Service, so e-commerce and content teams browse, select and deploy assets without ever leaving their workflow — with smart renditions and version sync handled automatically.

Why DAM projects fail

A library nobody uses is just an expensive folder

We have been called in to rescue enough digital asset management implementations to see the same three failures.

It sits outside the workflow. If a designer has to leave Photoshop, open a browser, log in and upload, they will not do it consistently. Adobe Assets connects directly to Creative Cloud, so the work is filed where it is made. That single integration does more for adoption than any amount of training.

Metadata is somebody else's job. Assets arrive untagged, search returns nothing useful, people go back to email. AI-assisted tagging gets you most of the way, but the taxonomy still has to reflect how your team actually talks about products — season, campaign, brand, territory — rather than how a consultant thinks they should.

The storefront isn't connected. If merchandisers still download from the DAM and re-upload to Adobe Commerce, you have added a step rather than removed one. Native integration means the product page references the asset, and updating the asset updates the page. Everywhere. At once.

Get those three right and the library becomes the path of least resistance, which is the only way this ever works.

In practice

One asset, every channel, one version of the truth

For a multi-brand or multi-territory business the case is straightforward. Sanderson Design Group runs six brands; LeMieux runs ten storefronts. Without central asset management that is six or ten copies of every image, drifting apart quietly, with no reliable way to answer whether the campaign shot on the German site is the approved one.

With Adobe Assets in place:

  • Smart renditions generate the sizes and crops each channel needs from one master, so nobody is hand-cutting hero images per territory

  • Version control and approvals mean the live asset is the signed-off asset, and there is a record of who signed it

  • Rights and expiry are tracked against the asset, so licensed imagery comes down when the licence ends rather than when someone remembers

  • Storefront sync pushes updates to every site referencing that asset

The measurable outcome is campaign setup time, and around 60% is the figure our clients tend to land on. The unmeasurable one is not having the conversation about which version was correct.

What our clients say

The best measure of our success is the long-term partnerships we build.

Working with Tom&Co has been like an extension to our own business. Their collaborative approach and use of headless technology has increased productivity and delivered above and beyond our expectations. They are a key partner of ours.

DAM questions

Adobe Assets and digital asset management

What is Adobe digital asset management?

Adobe's system for storing, tagging, approving and distributing creative assets — images, video, documents — from one library. It connects to Creative Cloud where assets are made and to Adobe Commerce and Experience Manager where they are used, so there is one master file rather than a copy per channel.

What is assets.adobedtm.com?

Not this, despite the name. adobedtm.com is Adobe's tag-delivery domain — it serves Adobe Experience Platform Tags (formerly Dynamic Tag Management) to websites, which is how Adobe Analytics and Adobe Target get loaded onto a page. If you have found this page while trying to work out what that domain is doing in your network requests: it is a tag library, it is legitimate, and it is unrelated to Adobe Assets. We do implement it, though, as part of Analytics work.

What are the best DAM integrations for eCommerce platforms?

For Adobe Commerce, Adobe Assets is the strongest option simply because the integration is native — the product page references the asset directly rather than through a sync job, and smart renditions are generated on request. If you are on another platform, the questions to ask are whether renditions are automatic, whether updates propagate without a re-upload, and whether it plugs into the creative tools your designers actually use.

How does Adobe Assets integrate with Adobe Commerce?

Natively. Product imagery is referenced from the asset library rather than copied into the catalogue, so an updated master updates every storefront that uses it. On Adobe Commerce as a Service, Commerce, Experience Manager and Assets arrive as one stack rather than three integrations to build.

Do we need Adobe Assets if we already have Adobe Commerce?

Not necessarily. If you are one brand, one territory and a modest catalogue, Commerce's own media management is probably sufficient and we will say so. The case gets compelling with multiple brands, multiple territories, licensed imagery, or a creative team large enough that two people have made two versions of the same thing.

How long does a DAM implementation take?

Eight to sixteen weeks depending on how much existing material has to be migrated and tagged. The taxonomy work is the part worth spending time on — migration is mostly mechanical, but a taxonomy that does not match how your team thinks will undo the whole project.
