Work with proxy or high-resolution content remotely, as if you were working on a high-end workstation in-house. With Teradici’s PCoIP Ultra display protocol powering the virtual desktop for Media Composer, you get a seamless and more secure workflow when editing up to 4K/UHD media. Even in challenging network conditions. Plus, with Media Composer | ScriptSync, PhraseFind, Symphony, and NewsCutter options included, you can greatly accelerate scripted productions, reality TV, finishing, and news workflows.

Share and store media securely
Edit On Demand comes with Avid NEXIS cloud storage, enabling editors and other contributors to access content and make the latest footage immediately available to the greater team. All cloud-stored assets and file transfers are encrypted and protected by FileCatalyst to ensure the utmost security. You can also restrict access and secure communications to further safeguard media from unauthorized access.
Scale resources quickly
Easily scale up or scale back your Media Composer seats as production demands ebb and flow—from 1–30 simultaneous editors at a time and up to 60 named users. Simply manage your subscription through the Avid On Demand portal. You can also increase your Avid NEXIS cloud capacity up to 200 TB with add-on storage.

“I would definitely recommend Edit On Demand. You forget that it’s a virtual PC. You forget that you’re streaming media from the cloud. It’s fantastic.”
–Alun Edwards, Editor, Gorilla TV
Get simple set-up and pricing
When time and gear are in short supply to meet changing production demands or new project opportunities, Edit On Demand is your fast and stress-free solution. With automated cloud deployment, you can quickly ramp up a full virtual production suite that’s accessible from anywhere in hours—not days. There’s no need to architect, purchase, configure, network, test, administer, and troubleshoot systems to capitalize on short-term project opportunities. Storage and seats are completely configurable, dependent on your schedule requirements, enabling fast burst capacity to handle production surges, then spinning down when completed.
Pay only for what you need
Say goodbye to billing surprises. With a single weekly or monthly subscription fee, your team can be up and running and collaborating fast. No lengthy project ramp-ups. No overages. No hidden fees. No stress. Plus, you get simple subscription monitoring, management, and billing, so you’re always aware of your usage to make smarter decisions about your subscription investment.


Have peace of mind
All projects, media, tools, and data are completely secured and protected in the cloud, safeguarding your production from unauthorized access and cyber threats. Plus, monthly subscriptions include Avid Support to keep your systems and production running smoothly.
Manage Avid NEXIS workspaces with ease
No need to learn a new interface to manage your cloud storage. Systems administrators can create and manage workspaces, organize media, and control which users have access to each workspace. All right from within Edit On Demand using the familiar Avid NEXIS administrative interface.

Optimize costs and business efficiency
Easily monitor your usage over time in the dashboard to better understand your current and future needs, drive maximum value, and prevent over-utilization of your subscription resources. Plus, because Edit On Demand doesn’t require a huge upfront capital investment, you can move from a CapEx business model to OpEx for easier planning and budgeting.
“As far as the Avid | Edit On Demand interface goes, it’s almost identical to working on-premises. Users can barely see the difference between their local Media Composer app or one running virtually. It's that good.”
–Chris Bové, Senior Editor, Always Editing (PBS)
