Single Vendor Solutions, like ProMAX Platform, have undeniable benefits when it comes to ease of use, interoperability, and ease of the support. It's why they exist. However, there are benefits in putting together solutions from multiple vendors who focus on a specific aspect of a greater solution. So the question is always, which is right for you?

Over the years we have seen countless customers move to a single vendor solution, choosing simplicity over features. The reason is clear: Unless a team has a significant amount of time for implementing, training & supporting a multi-vendor solution, the project goals are often missed. Customers end up with Shared Storage and a bunch of extra products they don't even use.
The reality is, salespeople try to make things look easy and awesome...and in demo environments, they are. But when it comes to a supported environment, interoperability is rarely more than a marketing relationship, or a sales rep that has 'seen those products work together before'.
Because ProMAX is a Single Vendor Solution, we are able to offer a 90 Days Risk Free Guarantee.
There are a lot of great options for your team and most ProMAX competitors are very good companies with very good products. But unless your team has a specific need that only a multi-vendor solution can fulfill, we can assure you that simplicity is the better choice.
Your video team has too much content to work on to spend a bunch of time working tasks that don't have anything to do with their creative skills. We see this all the time when creatives are forced to become technologists. If you make technology difficult on the team, no one uses it.
Simple and powerful solutions like the ProMAX Platform drive creative efficiency. That's the power of ProMAX Platform.
