However, the media delivery chain is complex, with a variety of stakeholders looking to achieve the best quality possible – beginning with the content’s creation, going to the several distribution head-ends for processing & packaging before the actual delivery to the end consumers – under the form of linear Broadcast TV, DTH, IPTV, Live OTT or VOD streaming services (Advertisement VOD / Transactional VOD / Subscription VOD, Catch-up/Replay TV, DVR).

Ensuring an end-to-end service quality goes through a complete monitoring system deployed on these strategic delivery points: to check the quality at the source – quality on the contractual handover points for SLA responsibility – and quality during the complex video processing stages, down to the delivery to the end consumers.

With the objective to prevent & detect issues before your customers do – optimize your maintenance operation by quickly troubleshooting & identifying the source of problems – and last but not least, provide you with the necessary quality reports to prove your SLA commitments.
