Capture integrates PLUS licensing standards into its asset management system

Capture integrates PLUS licensing standards into its asset management systemCapture a leading developer of image and digital asset management systems from the UK has announced that it has integrated the PLUS (Picture Licensing Universal System) standards into its web-based asset management system Capture Office Online (COO). According to a press release issued by the company “This means that the PLUS media matrix can be used in COO to specify standardized usage categories – and then generate prices easily (and the unique PLUS price code) by using COO’s price factoring facility”.

Capture Managing Director Abbie Enock said: “We are delighted to be working closely with PLUS. Rights and licensing have always been a central part of our image library management systems – and we believe it is vital that the complex minefield of rights and pricing is streamlined and made easier for the buyer to understand and use. We also know from our experience of working with clients that building a pricebook can be a daunting task – so our price factoring functionality is designed to make light work of this, and the PLUS Packs give a streamlined set of options that allow a pricebook to be constructed very quickly.”

Jeff Sedlik, President & CEO of the PLUS Coalition, added “As both an active participant in the PLUS Coalition and an early adopter of the PLUS Standards, Capture has demonstrated a profound dedication to improving the picture licensing process for picture libraries and their customers. By integrating the PLUS standards into Capture Office Online, Capture provides picture libraries with a ready-made solution that simplifies the licensing process and allows picture buyers to more easily manage and renew their licensed assets, using universal terminology, license packages and licensing menus that have been created by a worldwide collaboration between all industries engaged in creating, distributing, using and preserving images. Capture understands rights metadata, and knows how to leverage it for the benefit of their customers.”
