DreamHost, one of the most recognized names in web hosting, serves over 400,000 customers and powers 1.5 million websites worldwide. With such reach comes a unique branding challenge: how do you keep your visual identity consistent across hundreds of campaigns, internal teams, external partners, and support documentation?

The answer? BrandyHQ — a beautifully simple platform that became DreamHost’s single source of truth for everything brand-related.

In this case study, you’ll see how DreamHost replaced cluttered folders and inconsistent files with Brandy’s centralized brand hub, improving brand consistency, team efficiency, and creative collaboration across the board.

The Challenge

DreamHost’s brand presence spans:

Multiple departments (marketing, product, support, partnerships)
External agencies and vendors
Dozens of customer-facing assets: from website banners and landing pages to newsletters, documentation, and social media content

Before Brandy, the problems were all too familiar:

Inconsistent usage of logos, fonts, and colors
Designers often received outdated or incorrect brand files
New hires and external teams had no clear guide on how to “stay on-brand”
Assets were buried in scattered Dropbox folders or Slack threads
Multiple rebranding efforts meant confusion over which assets were the most current

The Solution: Switching to Brandy

DreamHost chose Brandy as their brand asset management platform for three key reasons:

Ease of Use: No learning curve. Anyone—designers, marketers, developers—can find what they need in seconds.
Visual Simplicity: Logos, typography, and color codes are presented visually and cleanly. No digging through folders.
One Source of Truth: Everyone—from internal teams to external vendors—uses the same up-to-date brand assets.

With Brandy, DreamHost created a centralized brand hub accessible to all team members and partners—organized, updated, and always on-brand.

Implementation

The rollout was smooth and nearly instant:

Initial Setup: DreamHost’s brand team uploaded their full suite of logos, color palettes, typography, and usage notes into a dedicated Brandy space.
Stakeholder Access: The Brandy link was shared with internal teams, content creators, and third-party collaborators.
Brand Refresh: During their recent rebranding efforts, DreamHost used Brandy to instantly update assets—ensuring all teams transitioned seamlessly without a single misstep.

Now, every DreamHost team member knows exactly where to go to grab the latest brand elements. No more confusion. No more wasted time.
