Shared storage for education
EVO is a shared storage system for producing and managing video content for classrooms, sports, and creative services.
EVO shared storage video editing servers solve common challenges in media workflows.
Shared storage isn’t just for successful production companies. From universities to primary schools, educational institutions are seeing the advantages of centralized storage both inside and outside the classroom.
Without it, organization is difficult, moving large files is time-consuming, and creating multiple copies of media for everyone on the team is painfully inefficient and expensive.

After months of research and evaluating products, TCU decided on the EVO 16 Bay shared storage server. “EVO and its ShareBrowser software allows us to log our footage and add metadata, and it’s all searchable,” says Salters. Each EVO system includes unlimited licenses of ShareBrowser, an intuitive asset management software that lets you search, tag, index, and preview media across all of your storage—something that was vital for the TCU team.
