Case Study: Avalon achieves faster, easier DCP file transfers with MASV

Why Avalon chose MASV over Signiant to deliver DCPs to cinemas, film labs, TV stations, and streaming services

Avalon, a Spanish independent film production and distribution company, needed a better way to deliver large digital cinema packages (DCPs) and other huge video files to cinemas, TV stations, streaming services, and film labs. Its previous file transfer provider, Signiant, was slow, unreliable, and difficult to use, creating frustration for both staff and recipients.

To solve this, Avalon adopted MASV’s Desktop App for secure, fast, and easy large file transfer, using it alongside its NAS-based workflow. With MASV, Avalon sped up transfers significantly—reporting that a 150 GB archive could upload in about 30 minutes on a strong wireline—while also simplifying downloads for clients and reducing costs through MASV’s usage-based pricing.
