Takes the load off your creative team: Designers can instead focus on more advanced graphics, to wow your audience and stand out from competitors.

Usability improvements: Common workflow elements are now ‘productified’ (as features within Viz Pilot Edge), so you no longer need to script for these features.

Help migrating your templates: Many of the templates can be easily rebuilt in Viz Pilot Edge- Template Builder. Or engage Vizrt approved third party experts to help rebuild your more advanced templates.
