he market leader in intelligent file movement software, today announced its participation in the Broadcast Film and Video Expo (BVE 2016), the United Kingdom’s largest event for professionals involved in taking content from creation to consumption. Signiant representatives will be on hand to demonstrate all of the company’s industry-leading solutions including Media Shuttle, the de facto standard for hands-on file movement, and Flight, the industry’s first and only Software as a Service (SaaS) utility for automated transfer to and from cloud object storage.
Since the release of Media Shuttle 3.5 years ago, Signiant has seen a steady increase in demand for its SaaS offerings. Customers have become increasingly attuned to the real day-to-day benefits of SaaS, including scalability, high availability, and automatic updates – and the SaaS economic model is now preferred by most enterprises. Widespread cloud adoption in the media and entertainment industry is also driving demand. Signiant’s technology provides fast, secure and reliable movement of content to and from the cloud, with Media Shuttle offering a simple interface for person-to-person transfers and Flight functioning as an embedded utility. As companies across the media supply chain focus on cloud initiatives, they rely on some combination of the two solutions to get their valuable content to the cloud.
In 2015, Signiant saw a 55 percent increase in SaaS-based customers globally, with 36 percent growth in the EMEA region, and this adoption shows no signs of slowing. The number of registered members on Media Shuttle more than doubled in the last year, and Signiant expects to reach 80,000 registered members by the 2016 BVE Show – reinforcing Shuttle’s position as the industry’s most widely used enterprise-class SaaS file movement solution.
