Metrisoft SaaS Platform Enables Rapid Development of Healthcare SaaS Application

e-Health company goes to market with Web-based application after just six months in development

Apr 16, 2009 -- Metrisoft, a Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) consulting company focused on rapid application development, today announced the successful completion and deployment of a custom Web-based application for Nursenav Inc., a health care technology company located in Charleston, South Carolina.

"We are delighted with our new application and we are certain our customers will be too," said Melanie Infinger, Nursenav's Founder and CEO. "Metrisoft quickly caught our vision, improved upon it, and turned it into something real and ready to sell within just a few months." Nursenav initially used a different software consulting company but realized after seven months that the project was not going well. "When we found Metrisoft," said Infinger, "we were amazed at their ability to quickly compose our ideas into a robust yet elegant and easy-to-use solution. Their years of experience in building and successfully launching SaaS applications, especially within health care, have been invaluable to us."

The Nursenav SaaS application was developed so quickly in large measure because of Metrisoft's SaaS Platform, a Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS), which already had 30-40% of the core functionality that Nursenav needed. For the remaining custom development, Metrisoft employed its unique Requirements Visualization Method. "Our method is revolutionary because it presents our clients with an exact representation of how the application will look and function before it is built. Our developers can then take these designs and turn them into a working application with near 100% precision," said Matt MacKay, Metrisoft's President. Infinger added, "We loved how we always knew exactly what we would get before the programming was even started. Furthermore, Metrisoft continues to support us even after the launch. We have come to trust in and rely on Metrisoft as an essential business partner."
