PanTerra Continues Push into the Healthcare Space through Customer and Partner Successes

Customers benefited from HIPAA compliance, multi-location unification and cost reduction


SANTA CLARA, Calif., Jan. 15, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- PanTerra Networks, the leading provider of unified cloud services for mid-market enterprises, today announced two new clients successes in the healthcare space where HIPAA compliance is paramount.  The opportunities were spearheaded by valued PanTerra partner Softek, a Jenne affiliate.  The first customer, Dickson Medical Associates, unified their eight locations using Streams, into a single comprehensive cloud-based communications platform incorporating a single dialing plan and unique location auto attendants for their 250+ employees.  The second customer, Vanguard Health Services, had thirteen locations and 270 employees on disparate phone systems which lacked adequate tools to share information seamlessly.  With PanTerra Streams, Vanguard was able to create a uniform dialing plan with consistent team messaging rooms, cloud-based file sharing and uniform web conferencing to unite the company knowledge-base and promote better team interactions.  Faster and more accurate responses to customers, partners and other employees were gained as a result of the PanTerra deployment, and with PanTerra’s multiple billing center capabilities, even cost tracking and management was improved. 

John Wenick, Vice President with Softek was quoted saying, “We were a fairly new partner with PanTerra when we deployed the Dickson Medical Associates account but quickly found their solution compelling and would fit our other customer, Vanguard Health Services, nicely.  Streams’ feature richness, HIPAA compliance and intuitive interface as well as PanTerra’s professional and experienced staff significantly reduced our ramp time allowing us to confidently win these two customers out of the gate.”

John Fick, Chief Financial Officer with Vanguard, was quoted saying, "PanTerra put us light years ahead of how we were operating with our old phone system, bringing in necessary HIPAA compliant security and much needed tools to improve our daily collaboration.  Not only did we save money but with the improved technology, we are able to communicate more efficiently internally among our facilities and externally with third party constituents.”

Arthur Chang, PanTerra President and CEO, said, “We continue to hear from the healthcare community that our full end-to-end HIPAA compliance and all-in-one customizable cloud communications platform remain key differentiators for customers and partners looking to move their communications to the cloud.  We remain excited and committed to the healthcare market segment.”
