Communications technology and services provider ETI Software has chosen Synacor’s Cloud ID identity platform to support TV everywhere authentication for service provider customers.

ETI’s customers include Frontier Communications, Windstream and Cincinnati Bell, among others.

Subscribers will be able to securely access account management systems with unified credentials. Additional features include Forever Login, which helps protect against rampant password-sharing; ETI customers can register trusted devices as part of an operator’s sign-in process.

“We help our customers reduce churn, create new paths to revenue and increase profit margins, making advanced Cloud ID a perfect fit for our Vision360 solution portfolio,” said Frank Gine, CEO, ETI Software. “TV everywhere and direct-to-consumer streaming services are critical to maintain a competitive and profitable video offering. After evaluating multiple solutions, we chose Synacor as our identity-management platform so we can guarantee seamless deployments and great subscriber experiences for our customers.”

Dana Golden, VP of North America sales and marketing, Synacor, added: "This is an important upgrade for ETI’s customers across the country. OTT service adoption increases significantly when apps are easy to use, and ETI’s inclusion of Synacor in its Vision360 portfolio ensures that its customers can enjoy a streamlined viewing experience at home or on the go. Our work with ETI reflects the capabilities of our Identity Management Platform, as well as our growing success in working with video operators and content providers across new verticals.”
