Front Porch Digital is the global leader in content storage management (CSM) and in migration and preservation of videotape to digital files. The company delivers end-to-end solutions for cost-effectively digitising, accessing and preserving media and accelerating the migration of videotape to optimised and secure digital storage.
"Jasco Broadcast Solutions represents products to address the entire range of broadcasting needs for the production, post production and broadcaster market, from capture to production and through to transmission. Front Porch Digital is well respected internationally with a reputation for quality, high-end solutions. Their offering fills a gap in our portfolio as it fits in well with our existing products and enables us to add digital archiving and storage, along with other management and migration solutions to our product offering," says Steve Lauter, sales manager at Jasco Broadcast
Solutions.
The Front Porch Digital range consists of DIVASolutions, three product categories that can be integrated to migrate, manage and market media content securely and efficiently and are the first of their kind to automate digitisation of videotape. DIVArchive and DIVAdirector are trusted solutions for scalable and reliable CSM that enable digital file-based workflows to operate seamlessly across multiple sites. DIVApublish is a unique, cloud-based service that combines automated creation of frame-level metadata with online distribution.
"By partnering with Jasco Broadcast Solutions, who are well known in the market in the African region, we are now able to increase our footprint and access new markets that we have had limited success within the past. Having a local presence in the market is vital to reach our target customers, and the team at Jasco is skilled with sound knowledge of the industry and the specific products and systems used in this market," says Bertrand Farabet, solution architect at Front Porch Digital.
For Jasco's customers, this partnership adds another option to the company's bouquet of solutions and enables the group to expand its offering into the broadcast specific archiving space with a solution from an internationally respected company with a solid brand reputation. The Jasco Broadcast Solutions team has received high level sales and technical training on the entire Front Porch Digital suite and members of the team will be sent to Front Porch Digital's headquarters in France in November this year for further training.
