Learn how Edgio's CDN Solutions Transformed the Viewer Experience
Future Today is a leader in the ad-supported streaming media universe, with its flagship channels – Filmrise, Fawesome and HappyKids – ranking in the top free channels on various OTT platforms. The company operates over 700 content channels with over 70 million app installs and manages a library of more than 200,000 film, television and digital content assets.
Their cloud-based technology platform manages OTT services for more than 350 content owners, producers, distributors and major media companies, helping them launch and monetize complex Connected TV channels across devices in a matter of days.
Future Today’s Challenge
In order to deliver a reliable, high-quality viewing experience to their viewers, Future Today sought a new CDN partner who could provide expedient origin storage capabilities and multi-CDN management.
They also needed a partner who could quickly migrate their vast library, handle complex management, protect against performance degradation and deliver a broadcast-quality viewing experience across large screen and mobile devices.
“Edgio allows us to deliver a consistently high-quality viewing experience for our customers at a cost that is very competitive. Our users are accustomed to large-screen television viewing and increasingly expect that same level of quality in a mobile or desktop environment, which is more difficult to achieve. Edgio optimized our content delivery and we are already seeing positive results from our viewer feedback.”
