PROFESSIONAL SERVICES

More than a software vendor,
a technical partner for the whole journey

From architecting your system before day one to keeping it on air long after, Point Media's Professional Services team stays with you at every stage. You don't just buy a product — you gain a long-term partner fluent in both broadcast and IT.

WHAT WE DELIVER

From day one to delivery, we're there

01
SYSTEM ARCHITECTURE

System architecture

Before you build, we get the architecture, signal flow, and headroom right — so you're never forced to rip out and rebuild for a node you didn't plan for.

02
CUSTOM DEVELOPMENT

Custom development

Our standard products cover most of what you need. For the rest, we build — adding features that fit your workflow and integrating cleanly with the systems you already run.

03
TRAINING

Training

The best system underperforms in unpracticed hands. We design training for directors, playout operators, and engineering staff — delivered on-site or remotely.

04
SUPPORT & TROUBLESHOOTING

Support & troubleshooting

Going live is the start, not the finish. When something breaks — rarely during office hours — we're on it, tuning and supporting. And we don't stop at our own boundary: when the fault sits in a third-party system our software talks to, we dig in with you instead of handing the problem back.

HOW WE WORK

Remote, or on-site — whatever fits

We work at your pace. Training and consulting run remotely; when you need someone in the rack room, we're there.

REMOTE

Remote

Fast and flexible — ideal for training, consulting, and routine tuning.

ON-SITE

On-site

For complex rollouts and critical fixes, we come to your facility and solve it alongside your team.

WHY POINT.TV

Why hand this to Point Media

01 — BROADCAST + IT

Broadcast + IT

We speak SDI, SMPTE, and SCTE-35 — and networking, deployment, and integration. The thorny problems that live between those two worlds are exactly where we do our best work.

02 — ON THE GROUND

A decade on the ground

Our team has spent 10+ years in real playout rooms, OB trucks, and machine rooms. The pitfalls you'll hit, we've mostly hit first.

03 — LOCAL & FAST

Local and fast

A local team, direct communication, fast on-site response. Broadcast problems can't wait for a time zone — and we're right beside you.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions.

What professional services does Point Media offer?

Point Media's professional services span four areas: system architecture before rollout, custom development to fit your needs, training for your operators and engineers, and post-launch support & troubleshooting. We stay with you from day one through go-live and beyond — not just shipping software, but acting as a long-term technical partner.

What is pre-rollout system architecture consulting, and why does it matter?

Before you build, we help you get the architecture, signal flow, and future headroom right — so you're never forced to rip out and rebuild for a node you didn't plan for. Broadcast systems are hard to change once live, so early architecture decisions shape three to five years of flexibility and cost.

Do you support on-site, or only remotely?

Both, to fit your needs. Training and consulting usually run remotely; for complex rollouts and critical fixes, our engineers come to your facility and work alongside your team.

If something breaks after go-live outside office hours, can we reach someone?

Broadcast issues rarely happen during office hours, and we understand what that means. Point Media provides ongoing support and performance tuning, and we can agree response windows and SLAs to fit your operation — talk to our technical advisors for details.

If the fault is in a third-party system that integrates with Point Media, will you still help?

Yes. We don't stop at our own boundary — when a fault sits somewhere on the signal chain, in a third-party system our software talks to, we dig in with you to find the root cause instead of handing the problem back. This is exactly where our combined broadcast and IT expertise pays off.

Can you add custom features to existing products?

Yes. Our standard products cover most needs; for the rest, our custom development adds features that fit your workflow or integrates cleanly with the systems you already run. Scope and feasibility are led by our technical advisors.

How is training delivered, and who is it for?

We design training for directors, playout operators, and engineering staff, delivered on-site or remotely. The goal is to make the people who actually run the system fluent in it, so the product delivers its full value.

How is professional services pricing calculated?

Pricing depends on scope, project size, and whether on-site support is needed. Whether it's architecture consulting before rollout or an ongoing support contract after go-live, contact our technical advisors to arrange a needs assessment and quote.
