Ooyala strengens video analytics leadership with Ooyala IQ, built to drive revenue with a 60-degree view of content performance and audience behavior

08/04/2015

With real-time multidimensional analysis across devices, geographies, players and traffic sources, Ooyala's newest analytics engine helps drive increased revenue and engagement

SANTA CLARA, Calif. (April 8, 2015) - Ooyala, a Telstra subsidiary and the leading innovator in premium video publishing, analytics and monetization, today announced Ooyala IQ, the first analytics platform to provide a 360-degree view of video performance and audience behavior, including multi-dimensional filtering by device, operating system, browser, country, state, DMA (for U.S.), player or traffic source, all processed in milliseconds and provided in one view. This latest version of Ooyala's industry-leading analytics engine maximizes video monetization across all screens through real-time, actionable insights that help providers better understand and target audiences, based on actual usage patterns.

Ooyala IQ is laser-focused on revenue optimization. It was conceived and built from the ground up for a world where video is distributed and consumed across a wide variety of devices, reaching audiences wherever they are. Adapting to this new business environment requires much more device-specific, content-specific and ad-specific data and insights in order to run a media business efficiently and profitably. Ooyala IQ meets these needs with no configuration or custom development required, delivering a new level of predictive insights on optimal advertising, content publishing and distribution strategies.

Ooyala IQ is designed with an open framework allowing for deeper integration of many business-critical data types, whether from Ooyala or from the broader media ecosystem, that can be used to maximize performance, engagement and revenue. These include ad performance and viewability metrics as well as quality of service metrics used to gauge the overall health of video streams. These data types will be added to Ooyala IQ over the course of the year to further extend its already market-leading capabilities.

Ooyala IQ will be available to select customers within the next 30 days, and will be showcased at next week's National Association of Broadcasters (NAB) exhibition in Las Vegas (Exhibit #SV1000). Major broadcasters and publishers around the world participating in the beta program for Ooyala IQ include Sky Sports, Media Prima, Fairfax Media, Telegraph Media Group, Telstra, Vox Media, Complex Media, Dell, Southern Cross Austereo and many more.

Ooyala Chief Executive Officer Jay Fulcher said, As TV continues to migrate across devices, delivery and monetization must be integrated deeply with real-time analytics. Regardless of the revenue model, business and programming decisions can now be informed by new kinds of big data analyses. Ooyala has re-imagined how video and TV analytics are collected, stored, managed and accessed, providing an unprecedented level of visibility so our customers can optimize how they run and monetize their business.

Ooyala IQ is tightly integrated with the company's comprehensive platform for managing, delivering and monetizing video. Together with the company's line of ad serving solutions from its Videoplaza line of business, Ooyala offers the most comprehensive and modular suite of products for operators, broadcasters and media companies looking to maximize video revenue, with the most advanced analytics for driving business insights, on a global scale.

Real-time Programming Optimization

With the multidimensional querying capability of Ooyala IQ, users can filter, sort and drill down into a wide range of real-time video metrics, either within the highly-interactive Ooyala IQ UI or through an API. It is now far simpler to filter across multiple dimensions at once, including asset or label, device or OS, geography, domain, and player, without the need to pre-configure filtering dimensions or heavily invest in custom solutions.

This granular level of measurement allows broadcasters and publishers to provide their advertisers with far more specific insights about their audience's consumption patterns, helping them to better target and thus drive higher CPMs and ad revenues. It also enables programming teams to understand patterns in their viewers' engagement with their content, to inform editorial and programming decisions and maximize viewership.

Robust Player Tracking

A new player tracking capability gives Ooyala IQ users the ability to track the performance of individual players as a new dimension in their analytics dashboard, providing yet another layer of actionable information important to the success of any video business. Uses for player tracking include A/B testing across a set of players presenting different styles and capabilities, comparing the performance of players across a set of syndication partners, or comparing performance of players placed in various sections of a website. For example, users can:

Test the impact of various ad monetization policies (e.g. frequency and/or number of ads) to determine the effect on engagement versus revenue earned

Easily gauge the impact of Ooyala Discovery, a content recommendation product proven to increase viewer engagement and ad revenue

This level of testing gives providers the ability to measure and report on the profitability of any partner or division and to compare effectiveness of different campaigns, by directing viewers to pages containing different players.

Streamlined UI for Holistic View of Video Performance

Ooyala IQ boasts a re-imagined view of Ooyala's core video metrics dashboard, offering customers a holistic, detailed view into the performance of each individual piece of content. Along with existing graphs detailing unique users, segments watched, hours watched, plays requested and content starts (a new metric that measures drop-offs resulting from ad breaks), its
