What is EVA?
EVA (Edit Virtually Anywhere) allows for Film & TV productions to edit their footage through a Virtual Desktop Interface from anywhere in the world.
Footage is stored and accessed on a centralised storage (Private Cloud) that exists in a secure Data Centre.
Users of EVA are able to effortlessly distribute their media anywhere in the world for private viewing or broadcast purposes.
EVA can be used on cost-effective “Zero Clients” or older computers that would ordinarily be replaced or upgraded.
The EVA solution provides agile access to a dynamic industry that is robust and cost effective.
EVA is sold as a monthly subscription service on a BYOL (Bring Your Own License) perspective for the software available on the VM.
