Dacast Overview
Dacast is an integrated video streaming platform that enables all businesses to broadcast audiovisual content and allows viewers to watch free or paid programming. It helps companies maintain consistent branding, by customizing the video player and adding a watermark logo to protect content.
Dacast distributes content via Akamai, the content delivery network, to offer enhanced security, improved speed and consistent quality on all devices. An adaptive video player supports multi-bitrate streaming and helps reduce buffering, providing users with an exceptional viewing experience.
