TROY, N.Y.--(Business Wire)--
Open Box Technologies, Inc. , a leading provider of web-based video solutions,
today announced the availability of SesameVault 2.0 , a platform for businesses
of all shapes and sizes to cost effectively integrate web and mobile video with
their core business, marketing, and communications initiatives. With recent IDC
research showing video use within the enterprise growing at an annual compounded
rate of nearly 50 percent over the next five years, it`s clear businesses are
turning to video and other rich media to help them keep in regular contact with
employees, partners, and customers.

The SesameVault 2.0 platform enables customers to have complete control over
their content; both how it is incorporated into their business and presented to
their users. Among its many features, the platform enables businesses to publish
their content for access via web browsers and a wide range of mobile devices
including iPhones and Blackberries.

"Regardless if we`re talking about an accounting firm or a media publisher,
organizations across the board are recognizing the relationship between content
quality and accessibility, and their ability to attract and retain users," said
Cameron Brain, CEO and founder of Open Box Technologies."We`ve worked closely
with our customers for over a year to ensure SesameVault 2.0 is the most
cost-effective, powerful and reliable solution for storing, managing, and

"Video is an essential tool for Gonzaga University, especially with the growing
popularity of distance learning programs," said Paul Edminster, Web Services
Manager at Gonzaga University."We needed a web video solution that was easy to
use, could automatically encode all of our videos, and would integrate with our
existing systems.Of all the solutions tested, SesameVault was the only one that
successfully decoded all our content and provided us with the tools we need to
enhance our graduate and undergraduate programs, both in and out of the
classroom."

"Video usage as a communications tool is becoming a game changer in so many ways
and we`re seeing more and more of our customers interested in incorporating
video into their websites," said Alan Masterson of Tictoc Family, a UK-based
digital branding agency."SesameVault is our all-in-one toolbox when it comes to
video because the API is so flexible - a necessary feature considering all of
our projects are bespoke.In fact, SesameVault powers all the video services for
Vetpulse.tv, an online community where veterinarians across the globe can engage
in new ways by creating, uploading, viewing, and sharing videos relating to
veterinary science."

"SesameVault provides us with all the video services we need at the right
price," said Alfonso Acosta of Ga +pema, a Mexico City-based multimedia design
lab."Many other web video platforms have priced themselves out of the small
business market, but SesameVault even goes beyond many of the higher-priced
platforms in terms of the features it provides, which is why we use it for our
major client projects like PoloPoloOnline.com and Rockampeonatotelcel.com.It`s
also really great to see that SesameVault is tuned into its customers` needs;
the 2.0 upgrades are going to allow us to push the envelope even further in
terms of the quality and types of solutions we can provide to our customers."

widespread teacher training program on the use of our software," said Andrew
Morrison, Director of Technology at Children`s Progress, a NYC-based education

easily integrated with our products and that we could brand however we
wanted.SesameVault provided us with all of that at a really good price."
