As a FileCatalyst integration partner, FileCatalyst's UDP-based file transfer acceleration technology has been integrated into the Imagen platform to speed the transfer of digital assets within the tool. This integration eliminates slow digital media transfers and ensures the reliable and secure delivery of all media files, a feature ideal for organisations such as news agencies wishing to quickly aggregate and publish video content from reporters based in remote locations, and broadcasters with multiple departments and satellite offices wishing to securely upload media to a central media asset management store.
