Systems Alliance Launches MediaExecutive, Hosted Online Video Management Service

An Alternative to Ad-Supported Video Services; MediaExecutive Gives Organizations Ability to Upload, Encode, Manage, Deliver and Track Videos through Their Own Website

BALTIMORE, July 21, 2010 – Systems Alliance Inc., an IT consultancy and software development firm, today announced the release of MediaExecutive™, a hosted online video service that is fully integrated with the company’s SiteExecutive™ Web content management (CMS) application. Available immediately, MediaExecutive simplifies all aspects of online video management and delivery – from video uploads and configuration of video libraries or channels to playback of full HD video.

“We all know video is becoming an increasingly relevant and common form of Web content,” said John Shin, director of product development, Systems Alliance. “While YouTube, Facebook and other ad-supported video services do a great job of simplifying content delivery, they do so at a cost to brand and content integrity.”

Unlike ad-supported video distribution services, MediaExecutive is a subscription-based service that interoperates with any Website built with the SiteExecutive CMS. As such, MediaExecutive lets organizations create a true, private-label video management experience.

From the site visitor perspective, videos delivered by MediaExecutive appear to come from the domain of the Website owner, for example: http://www.jhsph.edu/urbanhealth/videos. To make this happen, the easy-to-use MediaExecutive service provides a suite of video content management capabilities, including:

• Point and click video uploading – simple browser-based uploading from any PC, Mac or video device
• Automated video encoding – automatically converts videos into Flash video format, saves videos in multiple resolutions, including HD
• Video categorization and management – lets you categorize video content, organize videos into channels and associate video content with contextually relevant Web content
• Display and streaming – customizable player and content delivery network with service level agreements (SLAs) ensure high-quality playback
• Reporting – built in reporting tracks popularity of your videos

MediaExecutive is available immediately on a subscription basis for any organization using the SiteExecutive CMS. Pricing is based on an estimation of storage and bandwidth consumed. Click here to request pricing or a demonstration.
