Media Shuttle

When talking about the cloud it is always easy to confuse hype with reality. Cloud-adoption within the M&E industry remains uneven, particularly when it comes to content storage and processing.

Media Shuttle continues to evolve as we provide new features and capabilities, and one constant has always been our laser focus on ease of use, and support for ever more efficient workflows.

From this perspective, the breadth and depth of adoption and usage, and the rate at which these continue to grow, has been staggering.
