What’s the difference?

Product Overview

Built for large teams—with advanced features, extended rollout, and a steep learning curve. Too much for most marketing teams.

Built for modern marketing teams that move fast. Easy to set up, easy to use, and priced based on your actual needs—not someone else’s roadmap.

Ease of use

Steep learning curve

Many teams struggle to get non-admin users fully onboarded.

Simple for every user

Sparkfive is easy to learn and use — for your team and partners.

Pricing Transparency

Opaque and inflexible pricing

Pricing is hard to understand and plans include bundles of features you don't need.

Fair, flexible, predictable

Only pay for what you use, with clear pricing that scales as your team and needs grow.

Robust Permissions in All Plans

Limited controls on lower plans

Granular permissioning is only available on higher-tier plans or requires custom configuration.

Control without upgrades

We believe all teams should have robust access controls - regardless of plan type.

Built for Sales and Distributors

Not built for partners

Lacks tools that support easy, secure sharing with reps, dealers, and external teams.

Share beyond your team

Sparkfive makes it easy to share content with reps, dealers, and distributors—securely.

Support & Success

Focused on large accounts

Support is tailored for enterprise clients, with more limited access for smaller teams.

Fast, human, and helpful

Our team is hands-on, responsive, and here to support every customer—no matter your plan size.

FAQs

Sparkfive is the go-to Brandfolder alternative for teams that want a DAM that’s simpler, faster to deploy, and more affordable. You get clean UI, AI functionality, controls, and usage-based pricing...all without the enterprise bloat.

Yes. We offer a hands-on migration service that makes switching painless. We will help map your assets and design a new taxonomy that will set your team up for success. Most migrations are completed in 7-10 days.

Most teams leave Brandfolder because it’s too complex or expensive for what they actually need. Sparkfive offers faster onboarding, clearer pricing, and a UI your team and partners will actually use

Brandfolder often requires an enterprise sales process, large upfront commitments, and bundled user licenses—even if you don’t need all of them. Sparkfive takes a different approach: You can start self-serve with our Pro plan, which includes 5 users and scales up to 20. You pay only for the users and storage you need, with most features included from day one. For larger teams or more advanced needs, our Premium plan adds customization and support.

You can be up and running the same day. Self-serve plans launch in minutes. Need help? We can usually migrate your assets and onboard your team in a week

Yes—and that’s by design. Many teams find Brandfolder powerful, but also packed with features they don’t need and rarely use. Sparkfive strips away the bloat and focuses on what marketing and sales teams actually use every day: organizing, finding, sharing, and updating assets fast. No steep learning curve. Just a clean interface that works like your team thinks.

Sparkfive’s Pro plan starts with 5 users included, and you can add more for $15 per user per month, up to 20 users total. If your team needs more than 20 users or advanced capabilities, our Premium plan is the next step. It’s fully customized—built around the features you actually need, and priced accordingly. No bloated bundles. Just the right plan for your workflow and size.

Yes. You can start a full-featured free trial of the Pro plan with no credit card required. Explore the platform, upload real assets, and invite your team...all without talking to sales. When you're ready, you can ask for a personal onboarding session or upgrade seamlessly. No pressure, no pushy sales cycle.

Affordable. Flexible. Built for marketers.
