Signiant provides the sole open, integrated, software-only solution for moving digital media within the internal and external production workflows of leading television broadcast companies. Signiant helps broadcasters complete transitions to file-based workflows easily and effectively, to maximize the response to time-to-market demands. Signiant software is compatible with both in-house and industry-standard applications, which ensures that the right media get to the right place at the right time, while guaranteeing reliability and security.
Signiant makes it easy for major television news organizations to share video news clips across their networks of local stations. These stations can upload low-resolution versions of their locally-captured content, which are then shared with all participating stations. When one of these clips is desired by another station, the high-resolution version is sent directly from the source to the requesting station. All of this is centrally managed, secured, automated and accelerated using Signiant Central Media Manager, Signiant Media Agents and Signiant Media Accelerator.
"We decided that digital media distribution management is not something we could piece together from parts of other technologies. Thanks to Signiant’s unique open and integrated technology, we were able to rapidly deploy a solution that fits seamlessly with our existing infrastructure to enhance, automate and extend our every day operations. No other solution offered the same ease of use combined with such extensive functionality."
