To increase communication, engagement and collaboration between employees and
stakeholders, organizations have and continue to be invested significantly in
content and network infrastructure that connects these employees and stakeholders
across offices, conference rooms, computers, tablets and smart phones. As part
of this, enterprises are adopting video as a mainstream communication and collaboration
tool because they understand its benefits over other mediums.
Qumu video content management software solutions allow organizations to create,
capture, organize and deliver content across the extended enterprise to a wide
variety of end points, including mobile devices and thin clients. Qumus video
platform supports both live and on-demand streaming, and also secure download
capabilities, a critical component for enterprise delivery. Qumu provides information
technology administrators and corporate communication leaders a way to securely
address the challenges of video that might otherwise overwhelm their data networks
while utilizing their existing information technology infrastructures, thereby
maximizing their investment and enabling the rapid adoption of video in their
content, collaboration, communication and marketing infrastructures.
Qumu Qx is an end-to-end video creation, management and delivery solution for
enterprises. Qx can be purchased as a perpetual software license, cloud-hosted

platform that organizations can use to improve how they lead, learn and collaborate
both internally and externally.
Qumu’s implementations can range in size from tens of thousands to millions
