We did a cost benefit analysis for one of our Indian client who has clinics in 2 locations and has 22 users.Our study has proved that the rental software solution saves minimum 85 % of the money then buying a software. Please refer annexure below;
The summary of benefits are
- Client saves approx INR. 15,50,000/- if
you use rental software rather than an installable software. Refer the cost
benefit analysis done at the bottom.
- No need to employ IT Employees in
your firm as cloudenvision maintains the servers for the client.
- Integrated software with single
point of maintenance, single server, single database, single IT team reduces
lower cost of operation, maintenance and upgrade and a significant reduction in
total cost of ownership. No need to deploy distributed servers or powerful PCs
in every site; an Internet connection and a standard browser is all you need.
- Client can view the consolidated data across all the clinics at the click of a button anywhere in the world.
- Client can view patient data/clinical/admin data
from home, other locations, so that clients provide continuity of care to patients anywhere in the world
