Masstech solutions will be exhibited at BES (Broadcast Engineering Society) Expo 2015 (Stand 80) in New Delhi, India, January 15-17; BVE 2015 (Stand F12) in London, England, February 24-26; and CABSAT 2015 (Hall 1, Stand G1-20) in Dubai, United Arab Emirates, March 10-12.

Solutions from Masstechs Enterprise and News business units will be featured, both built on the same underlying, interoperable technology foundation.

Masstech for Enterprise is the complete media asset management and archiving solution for todays file-based media operations. Masstech for Enterprise replaces operational complexity and time-consuming, repetitive media management tasks with flexible, automated workflows accessed through intuitive, drag-and-drop interfaces. Featuring rich search capabilities, intelligent storage management, native transcoding, efficient workflow automation and deep integration with popular third-party production, automation and playout systems, Masstech for Enterprise gives media organizations of any size the ability to effortlessly archive, find, reuse and move their valuable content assets.

Masstech for News allows journalists to automatically archive, access, share and use content directly from within popular newsroom system interfaces, including Associated Press ENPS, Avid iNEWS, Octopus Newsroom and Ross Inception.

Automated transcoding ensures content is always in the correct format as it moves between archive, production and distribution systems, transparently eliminating barriers to maximize productivity and creativity.
