About Sarolta
Sarolta was launched in 2002 as a digital signage network supplier. Due
to customer demand, Sarolta started developing simple video ad and
messaging creation tools, which eventually led to an exclusive focus on
online video creation and processing.
The principles of the Sarolta Design Philosophy are reflected in all of
our products and services:
- Simplicity - Enables
even the least technical users to create video. This principle led to
the development of our templates, the video creation wizard, and
eventually to Simplify.
- Ease of use - Allows
users to create and publish video intuitively. Our commitment to
ease-of-use influenced the design of Simplify, and added features like
file upload and direct upload to YouTube were added.
- Completeness - Gives
users all the features they need to create and edit video. Our
competitors provide a bare subset of what is necessary to make good
videos easily.
- Extensibility - Allows
for ongoing enhancements and additions to our products and services
line-up. Our Video Templates, Simplify and Automate, have been
developed thanks to the principle of extensibility.
