Overall Satisfaction with Avid Interplay Media Asset Manager

It is being used by our video department. It is how we organize all of our various projects that we film all across the world. It helps keep our projects accessible for our team members so they can quickly and efficiently find media that they need. We are constantly having to go back to old footage for new projects, so Interplay helps us find those clips easily.
  • Quickly find video clips and view them right away
  • Keep projects organized
  • Can archive and restore media
  • Sometimes have to reboot the system if things aren't working properly
  • I can't speak to the finances, but I believe as a whole it has helped our department's efficiency in producing video content.
Final Cut Server was a mess and wasn't really supported by Apple anymore when we were last using it. Avid has good support and we know they're going to be around and support their products. It's also just a better fit for our workflow in terms of producing content, as well as archival and storage solutions.
Interplay is well suited to teams with multiple people who need access to the same media at the same time. We can have producers and editors working simultaneously on the same project, using the same media, even sharing bins. If you're working solo, or have a much smaller team it might be overkill.
