PORTLAND, Ore., Sept. 18, 2018 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Vetsource®, a technology-enabled health-care services company with a SaaS platform that empowers veterinarians to deliver better patient care, is growing its technology team and software services in order to bring additional innovative solutions to the veterinary profession.
A recent funding round of $50 million led by Bain Capital Ventures is being used to accelerate Vetsource's growth, including significant investments in technology and marketing, the acquisition of data analytics company VetSuccess and a partnership with the telemedicine platform TeleVet.
Vetsource's technology consists of cloud-native software that supports hundreds of thousands veterinary professionals and pet parents. Its services empower veterinary practices at all levels of their business, from prescription management and pet-owner engagement to revenue generation and data analytics.
"It's an exciting time in Vetsource history as we invest heavily in our technology infrastructure and scalability. This investment allows us to swiftly respond to the changing needs of the veterinary industry by developing new, innovative SaaS applications that help our customers run successful businesses," said Craig Sutter, chief technology officer of Vetsource.
Using Vetsource's mobile-optimized ePrescribing tool, veterinarians can write, review and approve prescriptions from any web-enabled device, even when they are away from the practice. Additional services include software that enables veterinarians to proactively recommend products to their clients and a customizable e-commerce platform where pet parents can shop directly from their vet's online store.
"We are more than doubling our technology expenditure to build out our team and expand our platform as we continue to bring innovative and essential solutions to the vet space," added Sutter, whose team is responsible for all tech software development for the company. "We have an experienced team, a great culture and opportunities for advancement, and we're looking forward to adding new team members that will help us create software that makes a difference in pet care."
Vetsource plans to double its tech team over the next two years, adding a variety of positions — including cloud engineers, application developers, business analysts and quality assurance specialists — to its technology centers in Portland, Ore., and Tulsa, Okla.
