NEW YORK, NY — (Marketwired) — 09/09/13 — today announced the expansion of services with one of its longest partners, Sky. Chosen by , Piksel provided the newly enhanced Digital Asset Management (DAM) implementation, following the adoption of the Piksel VCMS platform.
The new DAM implementation extends functionality and innovation of the award-winning Piksel VCMS suite, which includes tools such as the Multi-DRM tool (Piksel Guard) and the Smart Video Player (Piksel Show).
Specifically, the newly improved feature set allows Sky Italia to smartly organize their digital assets, enabling users to quickly and easily find, view, and edit content.

We believe Piksel-s newly improved DAM solution increases the convenience of asset management internally and provides our customers with an enhanced overall viewing experience,” noted Pier Paolo Tamma, CIO at Sky Italia.
The DAM extension provides invaluable support for processing and conversion of images, videos, audio and documents, as well as implementing an automatic generation of web-ready video and document previews.

We are proud to continually provide new solutions and services allowing our customers to smartly organize and use their digital assets. This commitment to useful innovation is what our relationships are founded on,” Marco Frigerio, VP Sales of Central & Southern Europe at Piksel.
