It gave us the speed to market, video quality and flexibility that we needed to publish content from anywhere. Prior to Limelight, it would take us up to an hour to get the video online; now it takes about ten minutes. As great as Limelight Orchestrate Video is, what really stood out was our interaction with Limelight as a company, from sales to support. The single best enterprise customer service I’ve ever received is from Limelight Networks. They are amazing.”
