ATEME Receives 2012 Global Frost & Sullivan Award for Market Penetration Leadership

The 2012 Global Frost & Sullivan (News - Alert) Award for Market Penetration Leadership has been awarded to ATEME, for outstanding growth evident in both its encoding and transcoding product lines.

ATEME’s strength in its innovative architecture and algorithmic excellence has made this possible.

"In the last three years, when many leading vendors saw market shares erode, ATEME's share of revenue in the total broadcast and DTT video encoders market rose from just over 1 percent in 2009 to over 5 percent in 2011, with a particularly strong position in the contribution segment, where they rose to the third position with over 8 percent segment share," said Frost & Sullivan Research Analyst Avni Rambhia. "The company has one of the fastest growth rates in the market, with average year-on-year revenue growth of more than 60 percent from 2009 to 2011."

ATEME has had a very strong base in Europe, and is expanding their services in North America as well. They have also experienced growth through major sporting events such as the Olympic Games, tennis tournaments and racing.

The firm was also noted for its customer service. In addition to 24/7 online and telephone support, the company works closely with local system integrators to give consumers smooth product trials and glitch-free continuing operation.

"Providing comprehensive head-end solutions for traditional and new media alike, ATEME is increasingly becoming the go-to company for broadcasters and service operators that are looking to build new head-end infrastructure or upgrade older systems," opined Rambhia. "As demand for HD encoding grows worldwide and ATEME continues to expand globally through organic expansion and strategic system integrator partnerships, Frost & Sullivan expects ATEME to be even better positioned to gain market share against other competitors."

And given that ATEME’s architecture provides high efficiency, programmable encoding capability, and low latency, it’s no surprise it met Frost &Sullivan’s expectations.
