Qumu (NASDAQ: QUMU), the leading business video platform provider, today announced the inclusion of Speech Search along with several other features to the expanded functionality of the Qumu Video App for Microsoft® SharePoint 2013®.  Building on Qumu's award-winning Video Control Center platform, the Qumu Video App for SharePoint delivers a seamless, integrated enterprise video solution within SharePoint that can scale globally for even the largest enterprises.  The enhanced SharePoint 2013 app is available immediately along with the existing Qumu solution for SharePoint 2010.

In addition to offering a superior video streaming experience, the Qumu Video App which was released in December, 2013, includes comprehensive video transcoding, advanced filtering, unrestricted scalability and live video webcasting features.  In the most recent update, Qumu has added several new pieces to the integrated enterprise video framework, including Speech Search capability within the Qumu video player.
“By bringing Speech Search functionality to SharePoint 2013, we are giving more power and capabilities to video users throughout SharePoint and across the enterprise,” said Vern Hanzlik, Qumu’s Senior Vice President and General Manager.  “Since 2009, we have continued to integrate enhancements to our solution, clearly demonstrating our commitment to deliver scalable enterprise video solutions to SharePoint users.”

Embedded Speech Search
Speech Search, which is unique to Qumu’s enterprise video platform, is a revolutionary way to organize and ingest information from videos. In its embedded form within SharePoint and Qumu’s Video Control Center 7.0, users are able to search for words and phrases within individual videos and jump directly to the incidences where those words are spoken. This reduces time to knowledge and accelerates the way employees do business with video. Speech Search makes searching videos faster and more accurate than searching transcribed video text.

The Qumu Video App for SharePoint 2013 with extended Speech Search capabilities available immediately for order.
