What are metadata and why do they matter?

Months or even years after files have been created, not much may be remembered about their file name and location. This is where metadata come into play to help locate files easily.

P5 Archive's easy-to-use catalog with customisable metadata fields, helps to build a “Single Source of Truth” for production data. Finding files is expedited, since there is only one place to search – the archive index.
