Why Signiant is the Trusted Partner of Media Companies
Media and entertainment organizations around the world choose the Signiant Platform for a variety of reasons, but it almost always centers around the ‘Big 3’ must haves — speed, reliability, and security. Consistently delivering these critical capabilities elevates the relationship with our customers into the domain of ‘trusted partner’ and often involves other intangible values.
Here’s what customers say:
Nathan Ross, Founder/CEO, Blackwater Digital: Signiant Media Shuttle was one of the first things I spent money on. I knew it was fast, reliable, and user-friendly. Media Shuttle met all our requirements for speed, storage flexibility, security, and reliability. The list of things we use Media Shuttle for goes on and on.
Ramy Katrib, Founder/ CEO, DigitalFilm Tree: With Signiant, there’s a sensitivity to media and entertainment. Signiant is essentially a backbone tool, a service platform for everything DigitalFilm Tree does, especially within our data services. Now we’re ever more excited to integrate with Signiant for our immediate and long-term future.
Ariel Gordon, Founder/CEO, Cinema Máquina: I knew it was much faster than the competition, incredibly secure, and if an upload stalls, it can immediately restart. These were all things I really valued. Once you try Media Shuttle, you won’t go back to not using it.
Marc Andreu Valls, Director of Media Services, MEDIAPRO: We particularly appreciate Signiant always working on improving the system and updating us on any new developments. It shows foresight, competitiveness, and ambition. They care about us and anticipate our needs.
Luis Albritton, Fmr. Chief Engineer, Definition 6: We don’t know what the next crisis will be, therefore reliance on tech partners that are willing to change with the times and develop solutions as the needs of the industry change is invaluable. [Signiant] make our company nimble. I only see our deployment growing in scope.
Ben Manges, Fmr. Senior Director of Corporate Communications and New Media, Detroit Lions: Media Shuttle gives us a platform to easily distribute video content and take our story to viewers who are interested in what the Lions are doing.
Nancy Jundi, COO/CFO, DigitalFilm Tree: Signiant’s in all of it. It’s in everything, like water. It is the backbone of our daily operations. Customers often compare Signiant to a Swiss Army knife — a tool with many uses. The more you use it, the more you realize what it can do for you.
Dan Shott, Director of Post Technologies, Bunim Murray Productions: A lot of our shows talk to each other. Once they heard how well [Signiant] worked, everyone else is like, ‘Hey, can I use it? Can I use it?’ It’s a product that the longer we have in-house, the more uses we find for it.
Luis Albritton, Fmr. Chief Engineer, Definition 6: This is an everyday tool that I could not stress enough to my leadership. [I said,] “Without this, we’re not going to be able to do remote work.” That’s a professional opinion from 25 years of experience in this industry.
Li Xiao Song, Service Manager, Ubisoft: Games are getting bigger and bigger, and because working with different sites, distance is also a challenge. That’s why we like Signiant because it works very well with high latency. Using Signiant can have 10 times transfer rates.
Erin White, Director of Content Security, DigitalFilm Tree: Working with other vendors, other studios, and other companies, we’re seeing the shift and that a lot of other companies now are also using Signiant across the board for them too. We’re seeing that shift happen.
Liam Ford, Fmr. Senior Vice President of Post Engineering, Sim: [Signiant Jet] has helped us make our teams more comfortable with the process and idea of sending media back and forth to other facilities for collaboration purposes.
