SGO pre-releases Mistika Workflows, its first dedicated Media Management, Transcoding and Delivery software solution

The demand for highly efficient content production is greater than ever before, with new delivery standards becoming a requirement, especially from the increasing number of on-demand providers. However, the lack of automation and repetitive human interventions that can lead to mistakes are still the principal bottlenecks throughout the entire media content production chain - not only with color correction and VFX but also in quality control, final content delivery and distribution.

This was our main initiative and compelling reason for designing an all-new product Mistika Workflows, SGO's first dedicated media management, transcoding and delivery application, explained Miguel Angel Doncel, CEO at SGO. Due to its easy-to-use interface it is specifically designed to be used by all industry professionals with various skill levels, enabling highly efficient, truly productive and fully customized media content production.

Currently in the Open Beta phase, Mistika Workflows is completely free of charge and open to everyone who wants to test-drive it and give their feedback on pre-release versions. Join the 30-day Open Beta program by clicking on the button below.
