It was a great tool in its time, helping users find and manage third-party integrations within Q-SYS Designer. But as our Ecosystem grew, Asset Manager began to show its limitations. It became slower, less stable, and increasingly difficult to navigate. We needed a solution that could evolve with our platform and meet the growing demands of our users.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">That\u2019s why we built Q-SYS Library.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Listening to Our Users<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As we explored what a better solution might look like, we turned to our users. Some common themes emerged:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>\u201cIt\u2019d be great to see a list of assets without opening Q-SYS Designer Software.\u201d\u00a0<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>\u201cI wish I could manage my own assets alongside Q-SYS assets.\u201d\u00a0<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">These insights helped us identify three key areas for improvement:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol start=\"1\" class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Speed &amp; Stability<\/strong>: Asset Manager slowed down as more assets were added and occasionally caused Q-SYS Designer Software to crash.\u00a0<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<ol start=\"2\" class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Content &amp; Searchability<\/strong>: Users wanted more asset types and easier ways to find and learn about them.\u00a0<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<ol start=\"3\" class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Personalization<\/strong>: Users wanted to manage their own assets alongside official ones, with clearer guidance on supported solutions.\u00a0<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Looking Beyond AV<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To solve these challenges, we looked outside the AV industry. We studied how modern software platforms deliver assets\u2014often through cloud-based systems that offer speed, flexibility, and accessibility. This inspired us to create a hybrid solution: a cloud-connected tool for browsing and managing assets, with integrated installation within Q-SYS Designer Software.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We also introduced QSC ID-based access, enabling personalized experiences and unlocking new user segments who may not have Q-SYS Designer Software installed but still want to explore available assets.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Building Q-SYS Library<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Q-SYS Library is designed to work in tandem with Q-SYS Designer Software, offering a scalable, reliable, and user-friendly way to discover and manage assets.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It\u2019s not just a replacement\u2014it\u2019s a reimagining. Q-SYS Library offers:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>A modern, cloud-based interface\u00a0<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Faster performance and improved stability\u00a0<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Enhanced search and filtering\u00a0<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Support for both Q-SYS and personal assets\u00a0<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Clearer guidance on supported solutions with \u201cQ-SYS Verified\u201d assets\u00a0<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>What\u2019s Next<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With the launch of Q-SYS Designer Software v10.1, Q-SYS Library is now live. And this is just the beginning. We\u2019ll continue to iterate, refine, and improve based on your feedback. We\u2019re excited for you to explore Q-SYS Library and see how it transforms the way you work with the Q-SYS Ecosystem.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"http:\/\/qsys.com\/library\">Check it out!\u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>At Activate this October, we delivered a heart-felt eulogy and a fond farewell to Asset Manager.
