Summary

With online channel demands increasing, many organizations are taking a fresh look at rich media management.

In our most recent study, Forrester found commercial rich media management systems fall into one or more categories: high-end production, marketing operations, audio and video, and general purpose. For this report, Forrester surveyed 20 vendors with rich media management products. Content and collaboration (C&C) professionals must keep specific use cases — both current and future — in mind when investigating these vendors. And don't overlook the vendors' track records serving companies of similar needs and size.
