Kontiki Launches Comprehensive Enterprise Video Webcasting Solution

Kontiki, the leading provider of cloud-based enterprise video solutions, announced today the availability of a complete video webcasting solution that maximizes the quality of the viewing experience within the entire enterprise.

For over ten years, Kontiki has been trusted by some of the world’s largest companies to help solve their enterprise video distribution issues. With its network-efficient enterprise content delivery network (ECDN) technology, Kontiki effectively solved the distribution problem, ensuring a high quality video experience for every employee. However, a quality viewing experience is not just about flawless delivery and engaging content, it also requires a compelling presentation environment. Today Kontiki is able to offer customers a one stop shop for their webcasting needs that promises not only the exceptional video delivery and employee event expertise Kontiki is known for, but also an immersive presentation environment that embraces the interactive and social elements that forward-thinking businesses demand.

Offering Industry’s First Unlimited Use, Self-Service Webcasting Option for the Enterprise

Through partnerships with leading vendors InterCall, Laudeo Media, Onstream, On24, Thompson Reuters and WorldTelevision, Kontiki now offers a full webcasting suite, including the industry’s first unlimited use, self-service webcasting option, with affordable, predictable, subscription-based pricing. Kontiki’s robust partner certification process ensures customers have access to the most in-demand, fully tested and validated webcasting features from the company that understands enterprise video.

Features of Kontiki Enterprise Video Webcasting include:

  • High Quality -- Highest resolution video with no graininess or pixilation for maximum immersion
  • Available -- 100% reach to all employees during your live event, and VOD after so that no one misses a moment
  • Interactive -- Live Q & A, polling, slide sync and more to make your event more interesting and engaging
  • Uninterrupted -- No distracting buffering and no stop-starts that cause network strain and viewer drop-off
  • Mobile -- Available on mobile devices including smart phones and tablets
  • Scalable -- Self-scaling with your existing network without hardware or network upgrades
  • Management Control -- Management console with real time viewership tracking and analytics
  • Secure -- Enterprise-class security including transfers, certification and authentication

“Since 2000, our customers have relied on Kontiki to deliver video via the Cloud. We’ve earned a reputation as video networking experts, and as our customers have embraced new uses of video across the enterprise, they’re continually turning to Kontiki to manage and deliver the high quality experience they expect. We’ve been hard at work integrating with the leaders in this market, and we’re proud to offer the industry’s only pure software, cloud-delivered flexible webcasting solution for global organizations. We are also thrilled to introduce the industry’s first unlimited use, self-service enterprise webcast offering,” said Dan Vetras, President and CEO, Kontiki.

Global businesses are increasingly looking to webcasting as a means to connect with and engage their workforce. Live webcasts, historically used by executives to present to external audiences, are quickly becoming an important tool for real-time internal communications. By delivering uninterrupted, high quality video via the Cloud and utilizing features like polling and live Q&A, a leader’s next all-employee communication can be delivered with the highest level of engagement possible.

“Engaging the workforce is a leadership mandate for top companies,” said Mike Nessler, Executive Vice President of Event Services at InterCall. “The combination of Kontiki’s ECDN and InterCall’s Webcast Studio, delivers the reach and engagement executives are demanding.”
