More than 60 media sites, including the leading brands in CEE are already using Ring Publishing, among them Polish Onet, Fakt, Newsweek, Forbes, Business Insider, Serbian Blic, Hungarian Blikk, multinational NOIZZ, and Pulse in Nigeria, Uganda, Kenia & Ghana.
Stockholm/Krakow, November 15th, 2019. Flowplayer, the leading provider of video platforms for performance and user experience, announces that Flowplayer has been selected by Ring Publishing to power their publisher technology stack.
Ring Publishing is an all-in-one solution covering the whole value chain of media publishers, containing tools for business, editorial and IT departments of media companies. The platform helps automate editorial and publishing processes, improves user experience for 40 million readers on various devices with personalized and engaging delivery of content, and provides real-time content analytics and monetization capabilities.
Ring Publishing platform is already used by several publishers in Europe and Africa reaching 40 million unique users monthly. Now it is taking a step further in delivering a unique user experience in video. Having access to the latest video player technology from Flowplayer, which is less than 5% of the size of the YouTube player, the platform will bring amazingly fast playback experiences, without buffering, across all browsers.
Ring Publishing supports all common content types: texts, galleries, listorials and many more. But video is one the most important and the most demanding. Great user experience on various devices, fast start and smooth playback, rich ads capabilities and high viewability are crucial from the perspective of our clients - their users and advertisers. We wanted both a solution fulfilling demanding requirements and a true business partner and we've found FlowPlayer.
The customization possibilities of Flowplayer will allow to integrate the player seamlessly within the product to provide a brand-consistent experience for all customers, while being powered by the fastest player technology on the market.
