Razuna Hosted Platform Updates: Adding assets from the web and some more

We are very excited to let you know that we have made some major changes to the Razuna Hosted Platform in the last couple of weeks and also added some new features. Here are some of the most notable changes:

Adding content from the web

We have talked about this feature a couple of times to our customers and can finally make it available for everyone to enjoy. In other words, you are now able to add your favorite image, video, document of audio file from any source on the web (as long as it is publicly available) to Razuna. Especially for video assets you can even embed the video player from, as a example, YouTube, Vimeo or Google Video within Razuna.

This new feature will enable your team to collaborate on content, that is available on the web, within your very own Intranet and set permissions, comments and more on the asset itself. In short, we just made it possible to collaborate on content outside of Razuna, as it would be within Razuna. So, get your favorite social media multimedia asset right with Razuna.

To add any content from the web you simply click on the “Add file(s)” link and then choose the “Link to content” tab. Within select if you want to link to a public URL or in the case of a video want to embed the video player from the external video side. Ohh and before we forget, this will also enable you to embed video content from a streaming server!

Best of all, this new feature is available for you right now within your Razuna Hosted Account. For those who have a Razuna self hosted version you need to wait a bit more for Version 1.4 to be able to use this feature. But on top of this, you will not only be able to link to content on the web, but will also have the feature to catalog local folders and assets!

Speed Improvement and Stability

With the recent changes we also implemented a major database remodeling that increased the database access manifold and added some “under the hood” changes that has made the Razuna experience a much faster one.

With the help from our users, yes that means you, we are able to bring one of the best experiences to the table for Digital Asset Management! In case, you haven’t enjoyed the hassle free way of Digital Asset Management, we encourage you to create your account for free or download the latest Open Source release for your pleasure.
