ORF To Keep Employees On Top Of The Latest News With
Real-Time Webcasts
SAN MATEO, Calif. - February 19, 2003 - Virage, Inc. [NASDAQ: VRGE], a leading provider of video and rich media communication software, today announced that the Austrian Broadcasting Corporation, Österreichischer Rundfunk (ORF), has selected the Virage VS Webcasting™ application to aid in its internal communications with employees. ORF is one of the largest broadcasters in Europe with more than 2,600 on its staff.
"We're very excited about the Virage webcasting solution," said Andreas Gall, technical director at ORF. "As a broadcaster, ORF has always been committed to providing the latest, breaking news to its audience. Now, we're making that same commitment to our employees. Whether it's an update on a news story of the day or a message from our CEO, we'll be able to reach our entire staff immediately by webcasting the information."
VS Webcasting is the first software solution that empowers organizations to efficiently manage the entire workflow for producing live and on-demand webcast events. Already deployed today by Virage customers for executive communications, human resource briefings, and sales and marketing communications, VS Webcasting enables organizations to deliver both live and on-demand interactive webcasts that include audio and video synchronized with Powerpoint® slides, other related documents, audience polls and surveys, and Q&A. In addition, VS Webcasting includes advanced authentication, registration and reporting modules.
VS Webcasting was designed to facilitate communication anywhere, anytime for organizations to promote knowledge delivery via the Internet and corporate Intranets. VS Webcasting instantly records each live webcast, making it available for on-demand search and review moments after the presentation ends. Through the use of the Virage SmartEncode™ process, viewers can search for and view just the portions of the on-demand presentation that they want to watch. Viewers, who watch an on-demand replay, also have the ability to respond to polls, submit questions, and access related documents during the presentation.
Built upon the company's award-winning rich media content management platform, which includes the Virage SmartEncode™ suite of products and Virage Solution Server™, VS Webcasting offers the following benefits:
Complete workflow support from event scheduling through reporting
