The main value of the EditShare system is that it is not just a place to record, store and serve edit suites.  Apart from doing exactly this it also a complete edit file management system, from ingest to archive, securing all the files and users in their proper places and leveraging the usability of the whole process with polished easy to use tools.  Personally I believe it is an IT and media manager’s dream product, offering a massive, secure, all in one solution – without all the hassles of “hacking it” yourself.  It can put any organisation “on the front foot” in efficiently managing and exploiting their media files and client’s projects.
