Advance Your SPD on a Budget

Other Tracking Systems are Expensive

There are a bunch of different choices for instrument tracking systems currently on the market, but they all have one thing in common: antiquated user interfaces and big system requirements. They need to be installed on a modern, Windows 10 computer and they call for the facility to provide and maintain an expensive server for the program’s database. If you are trying to outfit your SPD with one of these systems, you’ll be looking at having to spend over a hundred thousand dollars in implementation, licensing, and equipment costs. Then you’ll need to put out even more money in licensing costs for support, virus protection, reports, and the other tools required to safely run these systems.

Worse still, if you want to use the tracking software on mobile devices, you’ll need to buy expensive add-on modules that make the software “mobile friendly”. These are additional, hidden costs on top of what you already paid for the tracking software.

CaseTrak360 is web based and mobile friendly by default

CaseTrak360 was born in the cloud and runs as modern web application on AWS. Think of it the same way you think of most websites: as something you get to with an internet browser that does not live on your computer. All of the thinking that CaseTrak360 does happens on cloud servers managed by Case Medical, so all you need is a device that can run a web browser, and the requirements for that are minimal.

This is where budget friendly options come in. For example, Amazon.com sells android tablets for under $100. These are no-name, generic tablets that aren’t meant to impress anyone. However, all of them have internet browsers, and all of them have cameras. Everyone of them can run CaseTrak360.

State of The Art and Affordable

Inexpensive cameras can be used to scan barcodes in CaseTrak360 and you can also connect an inexpensive hand-held scanner for added precision. You can also get an inexpensive raspberry PI microcomputer, connect it to a full-sized monitor, and run CaseTrak360 off that. Better still, you don’t have to pay for added operating system licenses. You can assemble a complete workstation for under $200. The days of having to buy expensive hardware are over. CaseTrak360’s flexibility and cost effectiveness means you can have a tracking system that perfectly matches the needs and budget of your facility.

We're Doing it at Case Medical

At Case Medical, we have taken the lessons we learned developing CaseTrak360 and have applied them to ourselves. Our production floor is nearly paperless, our ERP system is fully in the cloud, and workstations all run on inexpensive, Linux based microcomputers. We are able to put together fully functional workstations for around $200 a piece, with no expensive licenses or hardware needed. This has allowed us to deploy dozens of workstations all throughout our production floor; empowering our employees to work smarter, without the need for paper.

We can do this for your facility as well. CaseTrak360 can transform your SPD into a beacon of productivity, traceability, and efficiency while respecting your budget.
