Tiger Technology Launches Standalone Workflow Manager « Project Serve »
Las Vegas—Tiger Technology, innovative developer of advanced shared-storage workflow solutions, today announces the introduction of Project Serve, a standalone Workflow Manager that can turn any standard NAS device into a complete managed-workflow system. Designed for digital production environments of all sizes and scope, Project Serve provides a simple way to create users and workspaces, and control access to media files on shared-storage. Simply connect Project Serve to a NAS and use the artist and editor friendly Tiger web user interface to create and manage production workflows :

• Project Serve represents a low-cost, easy-to-deploy solution for post-production facilities, editing companies, design studios and others seeking to improve collaboration while controlling access to sensitive media files. « No other workflow manager is so easy and complete » says Tiger Technology founder and CTO Alexander Lefterov.

• Project Serve is cross application and cross platform. It works with Mac, Windows and Linux. It emulates the Avid file system, and enables Final Cut Pro X network editing. Users can create local teams or connect with an Active Directory.

• Project Serve meets the needs of a production industry where workflows are growing increasingly complex. Today’s production environments require more than the ability to share files among multiple users; they need fully-integrated workflow management to control access to assets internally and with third parties. Conventional NAS storage devices lack such management capabilities, IT-style solutions are overly complex, and turnkey products are too costly for many producers. Project Serve bridges the gap, providing sophisticated storage and project management tools in a platform that’s easy to use and that producers can afford.

• « Project Serve addresses workflow issues in a simple, plug-and-play device, » observes Lefterov. « It requires no special training to operate. Users can begin managing their data from day one. » Lefterov adds that producers who currently own NAS devices can add Project Serve and gain the benefits of sophisticated media management without having to invest in new storage infrastructure.
