Hosted or on-premises, Unify can be installed on Microsoft Windows, Linux or Unix platforms quickly and easily. We use Tomcat/Apache along with Oracle, Microsoft SQL, MySQL or PostgreSQL. Unify is a J2EE enterprise-level solution.

Powerful media management

Unify includes a powerful media server that processes video, image, document and audio files. Files are transformed, transcoded, text and metadata is extracted, storyboarded and published to all major and specialist formats. Staff and partners can then preview and download in a number of sizes and formats, and view any embedded metadata.

Less manual processes, more publishing options and a host of inbuilt features means that Unify's media capabilities provide a significant return on investment for our clients.
