MADISON, Wis., Feb. 5 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ — Sonic Foundry(R) Inc. (NASDAQ:SOFO) , a leader in automated rich media communications technology, today announced that Wells’ Dairy, the largest family-owned and managed dairy processor in the United States, has selected Sonic Foundry’s award-winning Mediasite(R) platform to capture its corporate meetings and training sessions.
Mediasite is a transformational communications medium used to deliver critical information and share knowledge. The Mediasite web communication and content management system automates the capture and delivery of presentations and lectures via the web.
Prior to implementing Mediasite, Wells’ Dairy had no way to efficiently and cost-effectively capture corporate meetings and training sessions. With Mediasite, the company can streamline the process and have a more efficient way to share information with its retailers and employees around the world.
With each event captured, Wells’ Dairy anticipates a cost savings in terms of both post-production expenses and time spent bringing the company’s 3,000 employees to the corporate headquarters for training sessions.
“As the company continues to expand nationally, Mediasite was the best solution that allows us the ability to cost-effectively create and manage our increasing volumes of video content and reach our employees across the United States,” explained Tim Tow, technical analyst audio visual for the company. “With Mediasite, we can now more easily and cost-effectively deliver time sensitive information to employees and customers from the convenience of their desktop.”
“Mediasite is an effective enterprise-grade management tool that in the instance of Blue Bunny is revolutionizing the way employees and the company communicate and receive vital information,” said Rimas Buinevicius, chairman and CEO of Sonic Foundry. “We look forward to continuing to partner with organizations like Wells Blue Bunny who are interested in the ability to automatically create, publish and store searchable video-based presentations for high-impact communications.”
