The New Winnov

I was at an educational technology tradeshow in San Francisco last December when I overheard a Sonic Foundry sales person mention that she had never heard of Winnov. In fact, when directly asked if Mediasite could do what Cbox 3 does, her reply went something like, "I don't know what they do, but we sell to graduate schools". I that's great. Our industry's pound gorilla with the tanking stock price has no idea that competing products exist.

Finally got the new branding and the new web site up. I may be partial here, but Winnov is raising the bar in the video encoding, webcasting, presentation capture and streaming industries. Winnov has been spending years and money on engineering where our competitors have been throwing their money in to marketing. The result is that Winnov has developed products like the Cbox 3 with technology that's 2-3 years ahead of the market. Can Mediasite or Accordent capture both RGB video and high resolution images? Can either truly capture dynamic presentations? Nope, and that's just the tip of the iceberg.
