The Collaborative Workflow solution solves the challenge of creative teams needing reliable and scalable offerings for teams that are increasingly dispersed, with some members working onsite in an office or studio location and some working from a remote location. The solution integrates everything needed for a collaborative and remote workflow based on the Adobe Creative Cloudtool set including Adobe Premiere Pro. The company’s StorNext shared storage provides the workflow storage while the firm’s CatDV Asset Management with included CatDV cloud panel for Adobe Creative Cloud delivers asset and project management and orchestration. For project archive and asset protection customers can choose their preferred asset archiving solution, ranging from the company’s Scalar tape to ActiveScale performance object storage, or any S3-compatible cloud storage. The complete, integrated solution is installed and supported by the firm’s Professional Services and reseller partners certified to install StorNext and CatDV.

“Collaborative teams who rely on Adobe Creative Cloud apps like Adobe Premiere Pro, After Effects, or Photoshop, need a platform that gives them the performance and flexibility to realize their vision,” said Sue Skidmore, head, partner relations, Adobe Video. “Our users value the tight integration and flexibility of environments provided by Quantum CatDV and StorNext.“

“Quantum is proud to incorporate a high level of integration with Adobe tools so that creative teams can stay productive in their workflow, yet still have a seamless, powerful interface to all of the capabilities of Quantum CatDV. This new solution incorporates the latest workflow best practices for a ready-to-use StorNext and CatDV environment that makes it easier for Adobe Creative Cloud users to love,” said Dave Clack, GM, cloud software and analytics, Quantum.
