VidiNet Concept Overview

What is VidiNet?

The media landscape of today is not the same as tomorrow’s. The nature of the issues as well as one’s method for solving them are ever-evolving, demanding an equal measure of flexibility, reliability and adaptability. Three ingredients that have become the cornerstone of a post-monolithic, modern approach to media management. All three of which are at the core of what VidiNet provides.

Enter VidiNet. A cloud platform that provides fully managed, ready-to-use software by Vidispine as a service. With a VidiNet account, one can enjoy the full breadth of services and applications available from our store. However, its true potential lies in the manner in which it facilitates the combination of services and applications with a VidiCore back-end.

Whether you are a developer with an idea, or a strategist whose business’ media supply chain is subject to constant growing pains, and broadening complexity of new use cases, VidiNet offers you choice. And a quick one at that. Within a few minutes you can start launching services in order to explore different avenues for different use cases, solving problems or streamlining your media workflow - resulting in a media management solution tailored to your particular needs.

While the fluctuation in demand may be unexpected, the costs should not have to be. VidiNet allows one to reign in costs by only paying for the services when you use them. Giving you control of what you need, when you need it.

Currently, VidiNet only offers SaaS. We are working to expand our offering to include all of the displayed elements.
