Featured Suppliers
A key buying criteria when considering a new Practice Management solution (which is a long term investment) is the anticipated longevity of the solution - linked both to the stability of the business structure behind it and the age of the underpinning technology. Implementing such a solution is no small undertaking and a significant change for your staff, so making the right decision is critical and should result in a long term successful partnership with the chosen provider.
