Case Study: Yard House achieves peak performance and productivity with Canto

Yard House achieves peak performance and productivity with Canto

Yard House, a national restaurant brand known for its extensive draft beer selection and New American menu, was struggling with a growing library of thousands of photos and videos that were stored on a server with no preview or easy way to find files. Senior graphic designer Sean Kagawa needed a digital asset management solution to remove bottlenecks, speed collaboration with agencies and internal teams, and stop being the single point of access — so Yard House selected Canto’s DAM.

Canto provided a user-friendly DAM to store current food and lifestyle photography, videos, brand assets and presentations, with previewing, link sharing and easy downloads in any size or format. As a result, Yard House teams can self-serve assets across campaigns and channels, approval times dropped from about a week to a couple of days, the marketing team handles a higher volume of projects, and Canto helped the team regain time and work at full speed.
