Network Monitoring - Broadcast Equipment Monitoring

It will be an interesting year at NAB.  Despite the economic climate many will be coming to NAB looking for the technology that will drive their business forward.

This is the year to make every dollar count at NAB.  MTD Systems will be at NAB with an ROI all star line up.  We can’t tell you that you’ll save 25% or some other number but read our customers stories:

What our (major market) customers say is:

• “we’re not putting black on the air instead of the spot anymore.” That was happening three or four times a month for them and media tracking insured the material for playout was where it needed to be.
• Another: “our news room system used to sometimes crash during the news.” MTD Monitoring found the underlying causes and allowed the customer to get the issues addressed - and while they were being addressed MTD was able to provide mitigation that immediately increased uptime by 900% and avoid the crashes in the news.
• We have worked with manufacturers
  A manufacturer was spending tens of thousands of dollars a month on on-site support for problems in their product. Due to the nature of large distributed processing systems they were unable to get a handle on what was happening. Again when monitoring was installed there was a quick understanding of where and what the problems were and a resolution first by mitigation followed by long term fixes to the product.
• Satellite Distribution, and video conference:
  Satellite distribution has it’s own challenge, thousands of sites, how long do you have to wait to learn that the receivers are on channel and locked - or i they have a problem? This takes hours with traditional systems, we typically do it in 5 minutes.

What is the ROI of playing a commercial instead of black, of not having an anchor with egg-on-the-face, of reducing budget hemorrhage, of knowing the state your system is in when you need to know it?  We think this is very high ROI and so do our customers.

We have solutions that work with all major manufactures systems.  MTD Software not only uses SNMP and WMI, we also get the data by any means nessecary.  We give you the most complete picture of what your media based system is doing of any monitoring solution on the market.  Check MTD Systems out at NAB.
