The great thing that I love about Playout is that we can actually go and mimic the actual schedule of the festival, and so that was a very helpful and a really important aspect because being an International Film Festival.

We wanted a platform that is reliable. Muvi was the best solution that met our requirements. The fact is that it is DRM Enabled, it protects content from getting downloaded, screen scraped or even screen sharing is not allowed.

The key lies in “Muvi’s scalability and bundled offering” — you dont need to hire multiple vendors or change your existing infrastructure, no matter how big or small your organization is.

The bigger you get, the more you need the kind of options that Muvi can offer. What’s the point in struggling with multiple vendors and long development cycles when you could just keep things simple?
