Sweden’s Com Hem has selected the SeaChange Adrenalin video platform ahead of its TiVo deployment later this year.
Com Hem is planning to build an offering that includes broadcast TV, video on demand, catch-up TV and start over for DVB-C, as well as LAN set-tops smartphones and tablet devices.
Com Hem will use the Adrenalin video platform to integrate and manage a wide range of third-party components. These include TiVo’s client solution and other third-party vendors in the ecosystem. SeaChange will provide its Professional Services to handle integration, customisation and deployment.
“Com Hem aims to offer subscribers the latest services in compelling bundles. With SeaChange’s technology and services we can do that. The open Adrenalin architecture means we can integrate our existing equipment and systems effortlessly. And because it’s easy to expand, the back office can grow as quickly as we do,” said Jens Persson, manager R&D, Com Hem.
“We are delighted to support Com Hem in its rapid growth,” said Andrei Noppe, Senior Vice President and General Manager, EMEA and APAC, SeaChange. “Throughout Europe, customers come to SeaChange for our deep experience and expertise in on-demand service development. Our agreement with Com Hem marks continued expansion of SeaChange’s strong presence in the Nordic and Baltic region, with customers from Denmark to Estonia.”
At 1.75 million customers Com Hem is the largest TV distributor on the Swedish market.
