TAG Video Systems Partners With Witbe

TAG Video Systems and Witbe have announced a strategic partnership to elevate video monitoring and quality assurance across the entire OTT content delivery chain.

This partnership combines TAG’s advanced monitoring, including its cutting-edge Content Matching technology, and Witbe’s unique Virtual NOC with automated video monitoring on real devices. It brings an unprecedented end-to-end monitoring solution that covers the entire video delivery path — from the source feed to the actual viewer experience across multiple devices and locations.

"This partnership marks another milestone in TAG's mission to deliver multi-app monitoring at scale through our Realtime Media Platform," commented Ziv Mor, chief growth officer at TAG. "With Witbe's unique user-device perspective, we're closing the loop on end-to-end visibility. Our customers now have critical insight all the way to the viewer's device, allowing them to track virtually every quality aspect, including latency, across the entire network, from source to screen, and proactively address the ongoing demand for a better and seamless viewer experience."

As part of their collaboration, TAG and Witbe joined forces to conduct a case study during the Big Game on Sunday, demonstrating the strengths and value proposition of their partnership. The case study showcases their combined technologies in action, assessing both the network and the content delivered at the end-user level — the actual viewer experience. This includes monitoring app performance, initial buffering time, and content matching to verify the stream’s integrity. For the first time, this study also measures latency between the various streaming platforms, which would not be possible without visibility into the end-user stream. Together, the companies conducted comprehensive monitoring of Sunday’s football championship streaming across a number of traditional cable providers and OTT streaming platforms — providing exclusive insights into how major streaming services handled the challenge of delivering a seamless viewing experience during a high-profile live event.

A Game-Changer for Video Monitoring
The rapid growth of streaming has made it more critical than ever for content providers to deliver consistent, high-quality video experiences across devices and networks. By integrating TAG’s network real-time data analysis with Witbe’s real-time video quality analysis and active monitoring on real devices, the partnership enables service providers to:

Monitor and visualize their entire content delivery workflow from source to the actual viewers’ devices.
Measure and compare latency across different platforms, from the source all the way to the end-user stream, examining video delay between traditional broadcast and OTT streaming devices.
Assess crucial KPIs such as initial buffering time, video quality, macro blocking, and app performance on real devices with Witbe’s technology, while also benefiting from TAG’s extensive suite of additional measurements and inspections, providing continuous, in-depth monitoring and the ability to have visibility and verify potential viewer issues.
Ensure the right content is being streamed across the delivery path, all the way to end-user devices, or verifying content switching to detect any expected or unexpected changes during delivery.
Exclusive Championship Game Insights
