EditShare Expands Ultimate and FLOW Portfolios at IBC 2025
Expanded NVMe storage lineup and new FLOW automation tools deliver faster performance and smarter collaboration.
Amsterdam, 12 Septemver 2025 – EditShare, the technology leader that enables storytellers to create and manage media, is unveiling major product advancements at IBC 2025. From new NVMe storage options to powerful automation features in FLOW, the announcements underscore EditShare’s commitment to delivering high-performance, collaborative solutions for modern production and post.
FLOW Automation: Smarter Remote Collaboration with “Send to Site”
EditShare is introducing FLOW Automation’s new “Send to Site” task, designed to make moving media and metadata between locations faster, secure and more reliable. Built on EditShare’s Multisite architecture and Warp accelerated transfer services, Send to Site enables direct transfer of high-resolution media, proxies, and metadata between EditShare systems.
This removes the need for manual sidecar files or redundant proxy generation, saving time and reducing errors. Integrated with EditShare One, teams can schedule entire media space transfers, trigger automated workflows, or simply right-click and send assets between locations.
The feature has been hardened in demanding real-world deployments and is available now in FLOW 2025.2.0.
Ultimate EFS Field: More Capacity, More Power On the Go
First launched at IBC 2024, the Ultimate EFS Field portable NVMe-powered storage has been dramatically expanded for 2025. Now offering up to 122 TB of ultra-fast NVMe storage, EFS Field is built for capturing dailies, editing in the field, and keeping productions moving no matter where the shoot takes place.
The system’s airline-friendly design and rugged build make it ideal for mobile crews, while full integration with the EditShare multisite ecosystem ensures footage can be securely transferred back to base with SwiftSync.
EFS Ultimate NVMe: New Options for Every Workflow
EditShare is strengthening its NVMe lineup with three complementary options:
Ultimate 24 NVMe NodeNow shipping. This flagship NVMe solution delivers extreme bandwidth for uncompressed, file-per-frame workflows including 8K finishing. With over 24GB/s aggregate performance, it enables real-time DPX capture and playback previously limited to costly SANs.
Ultimate EFS NVMe Lite, debuting at IBC 2025. NVMe Lite offers a more accessible entry point to NVMe performance. Featuring 8 NVMe drives in a 2RU form factor, it delivers up to 14GB/s read throughput per node, making XOR-protected NVMe groups achievable at lower cost and scale.
Ultimate Hybrid NVMe/HDD Node. Also new for IBC 2025, this hybrid system combines NVMe performance with high-capacity HDDs in a single chassis. Users can define separate storage tiers, moving projects between HDD and NVMe as needed without downtime. The hybrid node is ideal for facilities balancing everyday 4K offline workflows with occasional ultra-high-bitrate finishing projects.
“Today’s creative teams need storage and workflow tools that are as flexible as they are powerful,” said Tara Montford, EVP Sales and Co- founder EditShare . “From high-capacity field systems to cost-optimized NVMe nodes and intelligent cross-site workflows, we’re giving customers more options to accelerate production while keeping collaboration front and center.”

Adds capacity, AI indexing and sharing technologies
Boston, MA, 17 October 2024 — EditShare, the technology leader that enables storytellers to create and manage collaborative workflows at every stage from storyboard to screen, has expanded its installation at Last Cut Media. The extensions, which include AI indexing from Mobius and the EditShare MediaSilo collaboration platform, were implemented by Advanced Media Trading, EditShare’s distribution partner in the Middle East.
Last Cut Media, based in Abu Dhabi, UAE, is a large-scale independent post house, designed by content creators for content creators. Seeking to streamline its operations and allow its users to focus on their projects, at the beginning of 2023 Last Cut replaced its ad hoc storage systems with an EditShare storage network, including an EFS 300 shared online store, a nearline server and LTO tape archiving.
With the growth in premium business, Last Cut has returned to EditShare to increase both its capacity and functionality. The extension doubles the system capacity with a second EFS 300 storage node.
The new installation also incorporates technology from Mobius, seamlessly integrated into the EditShare FLOW asset management system. This adds AI support to automatically create rich metadata, including facial and scene detection. The core Mobius knowledge base includes more than 5000 objects, emotions and actions, and 10,000 famous people, which is added to with every piece of content passing through FLOW.
Last Cut also decided to implement the EditShare MediaSilo collaboration system. This replaced an existing standalone distribution system and provides seamless integration with the rest of the storage network. The result is that producers and other collaborators working remotely from the facility can receive high quality viewing copies, automatically generated, ensuring everything can be checked and signed off in a timely fashion.
Saad Duaibes, General Manager, Last Cut Media
“In today’s world, producers want the best facilities, but they do not necessarily want to spend time travelling to them,” said Saad Duaibes, General Manager of Last Cut Media. “We have clients all across the region and in all the creative hotspots like Lebanon, Egypt and Saudi Arabia. Adding MediaSilo means we can keep those clients up to date with progress, without adding to our workload, ensuring they see the very latest versions.
“Since we moved to EditShare storage we have been able to streamline our workflows,” Duaibes added. “It has helped our business grow, prompting us to expand our storage network to accommodate new projects. We are very comfortable with the solution, and see our use of it growing, including working with new tools like artificial intelligence.”
Michele Dwayk, head of sales for EditShare in the Middle East, said “Last Cut Media is widely respected in the region, and serves projects from commercials to movies, through television drama and documentaries. Each genre and each project has its own distinct workflow, and its own group of collaborators.
“EditShare FLOW is designed to be open and flexible, allowing Last Cut to set up each project according to the creative and business demands,” she continued. “They have embraced these capabilities and, working with our colleagues at Advanced Media Trading, we have helped them see further advantages for the future, including simple collaboration with MediaSilo and AI indexing with Mobius.” The extensions to the storage network and the new software functionality were installed in June 2024 and are now fully online.

The system enhancements we are introducing at IBC this year speak directly to that need.”
