Thank you for coming to the Henry Stewart Digital Asset Management and Marketing Operations Symposium. We hope to have the opportunity to speak with you about your digital asset management needs and interest you in a closer look at Widen.
Our theme for the show, "A New Twist On DAM," brings a new type of solution to the DAM marketplace - the Widen Appliance. With the best of both worlds - installed and hosted - the Widen Appliance offers managed services on the client site, while staying true to the "Software as a Service" model.
What is the Widen Appliance?
The Widen Appliance is a cross between installed and hosted software, with the following highlights:
- Hardware and software is owned, operated, and maintained by Widen Enterprises, Inc.
- Hardware resides within the customer infrastructure behind their firewall
- Internal users interact with assets at local area network speeds vs. web speeds
- Replicated set of data is integrated with Widen data center serving the external demand
The Widen Appliance serves two main functions:
- Support internal workflows
- Establish redundancy of customer data
