Case Study: Janson Media achieves fast, secure global large-file transfers and competes with larger companies with Signiant Media Shuttle

How Signiant Media Shuttle enables Janson Media to compete with companies many times their size

Janson Media is a family‑owned New York-based distributor founded in 1989 that grew from a boutique seller of documentaries and classic biographies into a global digital and TV distributor working with Amazon, Netflix, Hulu and others. As international deliveries of very large media packages increased, their FTP-based transfers became slow, unreliable and insecure—frequent failures on long‑distance transfers (e.g., 100GB files failing near completion) threatened new business and growth.

They replaced FTP with Signiant Media Shuttle, a cloud‑native SaaS file‑transfer solution that accelerates long‑distance transfers, auto‑restarts interrupted jobs, and integrates with Amazon S3 for cloud ingest and backup. Starting with an affordable entry package and scaling users and storage as needed, Janson now runs reliable 24/7 transfers, easily manages inbound and outbound workflows, competes with much larger companies, and has eliminated the transfer failures that once blocked growth.
