Bridge Technologies VB Probe Family Wins Streaming Media European Reader’s Choice Award

Streaming Media Europe has announced that Bridge Technologies has won its 2012 European Readers’ Choice Award.

Streaming Media Europe’s readers voted the VB family of digital media probes the best system in the Analytics/Quality of Service Solution category.

Streaming Media Europe promotes these annual awards as an insight into which companies, products, and services are gaining market share and which ones are fading from use.

The award has particular value and integrity because it is decided by the people who use these solutions in day-to-day commercial operations. The awards are a ‘reality check’ that cuts through the hype and highlights what works in the real world, as Streaming Media puts it.

That particular aspect makes this a very satisfying award to win,’ said Simen Frostad, Chairman, Bridge Technologies. “We know, by the continuous feedback we get from our customers, that our systems make a crucial difference for them, and it’s great that they have delivered that message to the world through an award like this’”

Bridge Technologies’ VB family of digital media probes is the most complete and powerful solution available for telcos, broadcasters and digital media service operators. The probes extend sophisticated monitoring and analysis capability across the entire delivery chain, from satellite ingest to set top boxes and portable viewing devices.
