Crispin provides a distinctive package of highly modular, highly scalable media asset management and multimedia "on-air" broadcast automation solutions at great value. Most all other companies offer large, monolithic automation systems that require a major initial investment, enforce a rigid, fixed-architecture regime and are databasedependent - limiting the freedom of selection and your ability for natural future growth. At Crispin, we realize that automation doesn’t have to mean the end of autonomy. We enhance performance, not just command it. Our systems are modular in design and database independent, providing an organic workflow to your operations by using only the pieces that match your operations, plans and budget. We back this up with our amazing Crispin4Life -4 Year Free Support Plan, plus unrivaled customer service, both unmatched in the industry. But most importantly is our commitment to personal attention and working closely with you to develop a highly individual, fail-safe, broad horizon automation solution with an intuitive human touch.
