What's the buzz?

BaseFX --Los Angeles and Beijing

"When we started our studio in Beijing, it was clear we were going to need a tool to organize our work in a new way; we had two languages, a 24 hour workday, and a lot of young, smart artists with little or no formal studio training. We needed something to bring order to the chaos. I looked at all the options; we looked into project management apps, asset management apps, render and asset apps. We spent a year doing evals, seeing what worked and what didn't. At the end of the day, TACTIC had the most reliable core, the best service, great pricing, and was the easiest to adapt to our pipeline.

I think what speaks most to TACTIC's success at Base Fx is that our artists embraced it immediately; they saw how it would save them time, mistakes, and redundant work. It's become, in a year and a half, the backbone for our pipeline, handling 800+ shots and five to seven film projects at a time, without a day of outage. We've customized it to suit our workflow, and been able to write a series of modifications that allow us to connect to our LA and Vancouver staff simply and efficiently.

I can honestly say that, without TACTIC, we wouldn't have been able to grow the company and take on the kind of work we're handling now, turning complex shots around on tight deadlines.

TACTICliterally takes care of two of them, leaving us to focus on creativity and our clients. We couldn't work without it."

"The real-time reporting data generated by TACTIC not only keeps our art production team up to date; it helps inform the decision making process across our entire company, from HR to payroll to IT."

March Entertainment -- Ontario

"We have found dealing with the folks from Southpaw Technology to be very rewarding as they are very responsive to their clients. TACTIC is a very strong product that is only getting better by the day and it is the bedrock of our pipeline. We use it for our production management, asset management, and overall pipeline solutions. TACTIC also manages our communications with several production partners spread around the world in over 4 countries spread over 2 continents. Controlling the flow of information in situations like this would be a nightmare without a product like TACTIC. As our company grows we feel confident that we have a system in place via TACTIC that will allow us to compete on a global scale. For March Entertainment TACTIC is our solution to redefining what can be achieved in the production triangle of time, money, and quality. "

Todd Jahnke , Head of Production, March Entertainment

Omnilab -- Australia

"I looked under the hood of several digital asset management systems before deciding to use TACTIC for the production work we're doing at Iloura. We selected TACTIC because of its easy integration and modern underlying architecture that can scale to meet our production teams' complex content demands. We've also been very impressed with the support and openness of the Southpaw team, who has worked closely with us to ensure that TACTIC's product functionality will continue to evolve with our studios' growing needs."

Stefan Gillard , General Manager of Technology, Omnilab Media


Providential -- Ontario

"TACTIC has completely changed the way I think about managing a production. At the end of the day it is comforting to know that your pipeline is dependable, efficient and cost effective. I cannot imagine producing any other series without TACTIC."
