'Everyone's focused on saving money, and the shared storage technology from Small Tree is ideal for improving workflow and efficiency without breaking your budget,' Biscardi said. 'Additionally, you cannot over value their customer service and expert knowledge.' Rather than having to overhaul our entire infrastructure, all we needed to do was run some additional cable. We just used the CAT6 cable that was already in the wall, it prevented a huge headache and was a big cost saver. -Dale Bradshaw, Director of Communications, Management & Training Corporation.' Our editors have all of the footage and assets they need right at their fingertips. As a Ethernet-based system, GraniteSTOR saved us a tremendous amount of money. -Chris Besecker, Studio Manager, Optic Nerve' The difference in workflow since the installation of the Small Tree's GraniteSTOR is night and day. The seamless, real-time editing has made life so much easier for everyone on our team. Since installing the Small Tree equipment, we have substantially improved our workflow, which has increased our productivity and project efficiency. Based on what we have noticed on our current projects, the Small Tree shared storage technology will eliminate the downtime we were experiencing previously and keep us up and running at all times. The Small Tree technology made it possible to create a network that doesn’t rely on a separate piece of software to manage the traffic across the network, which eliminates added expenses and unnecessary complexity. 'We're a small production company with a tight budget,' said Andy Southhard, post production director for Tier 1 Media. 'Luckily we came across Biscardi Creative's system. Ours is similar and for the money, you can not duplicate what this system will do.' Not only has Small Tree's technology provided exceptional performance since installation, their dedicated customer support has left a lasting impressions. 'We're doing HD work, it was critical that we have technology to work on large file project simultaneously,' said Jason Kalinoski, Evolution Media President. 'We've definitely noticed a difference in our workflow and have had no difficulties running both rooms concurrently.'
