DataVisual Now Distributing Green Hippo Media Servers in Canada
Green Hippo , which makes tools for the real-time manipulation of video for the AV industries , has named Ottawa-based DataVisual as its exclusive distributor for Canada .
DataVisual has enjoyed a long relationship with Green Hippo ’ s sister brands , Magenta Research and tvONE . “ The fit between our two organizations has always been very good , as we both place a high value on the service and support required of more technically sophisticated products ,” says DataVisual CEO Lisa Kislich-Lemyre . “ The addition of Green Hippo to that family was welcome news . We ’ ve had a lot of success with tvONE ’ s video wall processors , but media servers were the one piece of the content delivery puzzle that we were missing .”
Green Hippo ’ s Sales and Marketing Director , David March , adds , “ DataVisual really is a perfect fit for Green Hippo , not only for its impressively wide professional AV client list , but also for its focus on personal , friendly service and understanding the needs of its customers . We look forward to working with their great team for many years to come .”
