Qumu Launches Industry's First OEM/ASP Program, Offering a Complete Video Platform and Applications to Technology Companies
Leader in Enterprise Video Communications Offers Market-Tested Video Platform and Application Suite, Helping Companies Meet Demand for Video Solutions
Emeryville, CA — September 26, 2006 — Qumu Inc., the leader in Enterprise Video Communications, announced today that it has launched its OEM/ASP program, designed to allow companies to package Qumu’s market-tested and mature video platform and applications with their own technologies and hosted solutions. Technology, software and telecommunications companies can go to market faster with enterprise-ready or consumer-ready video solutions by leveraging the Qumu software platform to build or enable video-centric solutions.
As part of the OEM/ASP program, customers can license the Qumu Video Control Center, application modules, and associated SDK and APIs. Qumu’s software platform is the only extensible, internationalized, and built-to-scale solution designed to accommodate an OEM/ASP business model. In addition, the Media Publisher Video Control Center is the industry’s only multi-tenant platform, built from the ground up to support ASP solutions that can house multiple customers on a single instance of the software. OEM/ASP partners and their customers can use Media Publisher to manage a broad range of rich video content, including entertainment, advertising and educational video.
“Companies are under tremendous pressure to bring video applications to their customers in a fast-moving market, but they lose ground if they try to build these applications on their own,” said Steve Pattison, vice president of marketing and business development for Qumu. “By partnering with Qumu, companies can respond to immediate demand for video communications solutions, using a platform that has already proven itself as a market leader.”
Partners in the OEM/ASP program can leverage Media Publisher’s APIs and SDK to extend the footprint of existing technologies to include video, or they can develop on the Qumu platform to build new video-based solutions from the ground-up. Media Publisher offers a full range of implementation and developer support services to assist companies as they build and extend their video solutions, as well as technical support services to support products once they are made available in production.
“Qumu offers the industry’s only highly scalable, multi-tenant, and extensible video communications platform,” said Pattison. “Our software capabilities, coupled with our comprehensive professional services and support model, will ensure that our OEM/ASP customers get to market quickly with feature-rich, high-demand video solutions.”
