COMPANY OVERVIEW

Ever been to the City of Lights? Chances are you drove right past our office!  Las Vegas is our home, but our team can be found all over the U.S. We all have different backgrounds and skills, but there’s one thing we all do really well: use data to make a BIG difference.

From the moment you walk through our door, you know something is different.  We may have been around for a while, but we’ve still got a vibrant startup feel.  Our people know each other by name, we get involved with dynamic projects that challenge us to innovate, and we work together with a smile because our roles allow our strengths to shine.

If you go back to 1997, you’d find Jeff Deitch, our CEO, working late nights writing a software program that would give every pharmacy the ability to transport its customer database to a new system.  Fast forward a couple decades later, and we continue to help pharmacies and other healthcare organizations safely manage their data.

So how do we use all that data to make a big difference?  Well, it all comes down to advancing patient care. The more we help healthcare companies manage their data with ease, the more they can focus on what they do best: improving the lives of their patients.  We cure the healthcare providers’ data headaches, so they can cure their patients.

Now for the fun part: we’re expanding into some really exciting opportunities, and to do that, our team must do the same!  New projects underway that require some great people to help us bring them to life.
