January 23,
2007 - Online
Video Service, Inc.
(OVS), the recognized
leader in Internet
broadcasting for public
affairs, revealed today
that it has been named
among the top companies
in the webcasting
industry by Forrester
Research, a leading
technology and market
research company.
Forrester’s report,
“Webcasting Grabs
Corporate Attention,”
authored by Senior
Analyst Claire Schooley,
provides an overview of
key webcasting industry
players and the services
they provide in North
America, Europe and the
Asia Pacific region.
“We are pleased to see
Forrester’s coverage of
the webcasting industry,
particularly its
attention to the growing
needs for remotely
managed solutions”
observed OVS Chairman
and CEO Tim Treanor.
“The unique platform OVS
has developed sets us
apart from other
industry leaders. We
take pride in knowing we
can meet the world-class
demands of top .gov,
.org and .edu clients by
webcasting their content
reliably and at the
highest level of
quality.”
Forrester interviewed 13
companies for the
report: Accordent

Systems, Avacast,
Interactive Video
Technologies (IVT),
Media Publisher, ON24,
Online Video Service,
Reflect Systems, Sonic
Foundry, Streamlogics,

OVS has distinguished
itself from competitors
by offering remotely
managed webcasting, a
proprietary Internet
broadcasting platform
that the company
developed with the help
of leading experts in
government webcasting.
Most competitors
typically either send a
webcast team to a
client’s event venue or
broadcast audio from a
conference call on the
Internet – services
which OVS also provides.
