Alienbrain is a multi-user file management software solution optimized for media content. It lets you import, version, manage and share any kind of file. Its functionality is a superset of digital asset management (DAM) and software configuration management (SCM) systems. Alienbrain is the de facto industry standard for file management in professional media and entertainment projects.

Alienbrain has two primary components: a central server that manages a high-volume asset repository and the client applications that users access on their desktops to get to the assets they need. In tandem, these components provide a very powerful architecture for file management, version control, change management, configuration management, workflow, access control, archiving and visual working. All of this functionality can also be automated through scripting and a command line tool and customized with scripts, plug-ins and user settings. Alienbrain can alsou integrate itself into your production pipeline through application plug-ins for several popular content creation tools.

Alienbrain manages your assets efficiently and offers an easy-to-use interface to a rich feature set for working with your assets. This prevents data loss and confusion, reduces the time spent on clerical tasks like file management and increases your productivity.

THE ALIENBRAIN SERVER
The central server maintains the asset files and up-to-date information about them: when they were created, their file sizes, their version histories and many other attributes. Alienbrain uses the file system of your file server to store the raw file data (including version histories). This way, administrators and tools have full access to the original files. All additional information (like comments, keywords and custom properties) is stored in a highly optimized object-oriented database.

The server controls and co-ordinates access to all assets to provide security and to prevent access collisions. Users can download any version from the server, lock the latest version for modification and upload new versions.

THE ALIENBRAIN CLIENT
The client application is your asset management command center. Once it is installed on your workstation, you can use it to connect to any Alienbrain Server (providing you are authorized to do so), browse the project databases that contain the assets and import new files or view, lock and edit existing ones. The Alienbrain Client collaborates with the server to display thumbnail images and preview for media assets and to provide access to workflow functions.
