Media-friendly Architecture that Banishes Bottlenecks
Unlike generic IT storage systems, EditShare has written its own ultra-efficient drivers for EFS, for use with Windows, MacOS and Linux. EditShare manages the entire EFS 2020 technology stack from the file system to OS drivers, which means enterprise-level stability and faster video file transfers. Users can expect more real-time video streams, without the bottlenecks caused by legacy network protocols.
Safety and Security for Valuable Media Content
EFS 2020 File Auditing is the first and only real-time purpose-built content auditing platform for the entire production workflow.
