Assurant Solutions Selects MediaValet to Consolidate Global Digital Assets

ATLANTA, GA and VANCOUVER, BC --(Marketwired - July 07, 2015) - Assurant Solutions has selected MediaValet (TSX VENTURE: MVP), the leading provider of cloud-based enterprise digital asset management software, to provide a global media library to house its corporate brand assets. MediaValet will assist Assurant Solutions in migrating a large inventory of digital assets from a disparate network of hard drives located in multiple global locations to a single media library on the cloud. Built exclusively on Microsoft's platform-as-a-service (PaaS) cloud platform, MediaValet delivers unmatched security, scalability and accessibility.

Assurant Solutions is a global leader in protection of mobile devices, consumer electronics, major appliances and jewelry, and in final needs planning. With 24 locations in 13 countries, Assurant Solutions develops a wide range of targeted, multinational marketing campaigns. Critical to their development and execution is a global system for fast, easy and secure access to digital marketing assets and brand materials.

"We have tens of thousands of digital assets housed on separate hard drives located in far-flung locations," commented Karen Porter-Wolf, CIO at Assurant Solutions. "Providing ready and easy access to these assets is not only a critical step in increasing our productivity as a department and as a company, but also in securing our brand assets -- ensuring their integrity and longevity. We chose MediaValet because it was the only DAMS provider to meet our strict security, reliability and accessibility requirements."

MediaValet is leading an entirely new generation of digital asset management systems that are forged in the cloud. Unrivaled by its competitors, MediaValet is the only enterprise-class digital asset management system to combine the cutting-edge focus of a group of content production veterans with the power of Microsoft's Azure cloud platform. Built with user experience in mind, MediaValet delivers a massively scalable, accessible and secure system that is simple and intuitive for all team members to use.

"Assurant Solutions' global marketing teams recognize they are creating content in a dispersed structure, which creates the need to remain aligned in what is being created by whom, and to have consistency in messaging and branding," commented David MacLaren, President and CEO at MediaValet. "By organizing their global assets into one central repository, they will gain significant insight into cross-organizational initiatives, be more consistent in their branding and marketing campaigns, and be better equipped to amplify content locally. We're thrilled Assurant Solutions chose to partner with us in this endeavour."
