Incentivized tier: G2 lists NetX | DAM at 4.6\/5 from 60 reviews (figure corroborated across two independent search results); Capterra also lists a NetX DAM profile but its specific score\/count was not retrieved in this session \u2014 G2 and Capterra share ownership since the 05.02.2026 deal, so these should be treated as one source family, not two, once both are confirmed.
