Situated in Chile, Santo Tomás University is one of the largest academic institutions in the country. Founded in 1988, it welcomes over 50,000 students each year to study at its 14 campuses that are stretched over 19 Chilean cities.

For the clinical health department of the university, video plays an important role in the education and research process with many thousands of hours of patient consultations recorded annually. Access to that content was in the past slow, laborious and manual.

Typically on each of the university campus locations, the recordings of sessions were viewed by connecting the cameras directly to TV/s or, were saved onto DVDs. Finding and sharing content locally was an inefficient process but with no centralised asset management system in place sharing content with students, teachers and medical professionals across the whole university was almost impossible.
