Trusted by some of the best professionals around the world

“As a hiring company for professional video equipment, we particularly appreciate Play PLAYDECK’s licensing flexibility. In addition, it is important for us that PLAYDECK is running stable under Windows and can play all common codecs. And meantime, the Production Window has become almost indispensable for larger productions.”

CEO MM Film & Video Manfred Müller GmbH
“My co-workers love to work with PLAYDECK, and I especially like the auto-cue feature, that allows the video mixer to control the show automatically. In short: Reliable, stable and innovative, plus great personal support!”

“I use PLAYDECK for playback of pre-produced posts and jingles in my livestreams. Since I run a livestream self-drive studio, I need a reliable software that I can configure in advance and operate during the show with a few button presses. PLAYDECK is the ideal solution for this. And during the training phase in the very extensive possibilities, JOY was always very helpful, so that I could work with it very quickly.”
Markus Wilmsmann
CEO Mothergrid Newsportal
“We have been successfully using the studio version of PLAYDECK for our stadium TV productions for years with up to 30,000 viewers. During the whole period, a backup system did not have to be used once. We are very satisfied!”
Robert Mösle

“We have been using PLAYDECK for years and have not regretted our decision for a second: very reliable, fast and comfortable to use, and feature requests are also gladly implemented!”
