Ontario Systems Announces New Technology Adoption Program to Test Software Products

MUNCIE, Ind. — Ontario Systems, a leading provider of revenue cycle management and collection management solutions for the accounts receivables management and health care industries, announces the new Technology Adoption Program (TAP), a software development program designed to give select current and potential customers early access to new technology before product ship dates. More importantly, the TAP enables Ontario to validate assumptions, visions and feature design decisions, ultimately benefiting customers with current and future product versions.

Unlike software Beta programs that can be more broad and shallow with their focus, Ontario’s Technology Adoption Program seeks a deep client relationship in order to deliver the best products to market – based on what the market needs today and in the future – not what it once wanted when a product was envisioned. TAP clients are hand-selected by Ontario based on thought leadership and the ability to give rich feedback. The program enables companies to get involved at much earlier stages, working directly with the people designing and building the product, to see individual features as they are developed and tested. Feedback is shared with the entire Ontario team throughout the program as it serves as an important driver of product requirements.

“Our TAP attracts thought leaders from companies of all sizes and from many different market segments to ensure that the solution will serve our entire industry,” said Michael Zammuto, Chief Operating Officer, Ontario Systems. “With our highly dynamic markets and customers, we want to make certain that we are bringing the best possible product with features needed today and in the future when it begins shipping to customers. It is a great commitment for our TAP clients, but ultimately serves as an investment in their own business leadership.”

“We were extremely pleased to be selected for the Ontario’s TAP and have seen tremendous benefits in the few months we have been working with Ontario’s upcoming Collect Savvy product,” said Nate Olson, Vice President of Operations, Illinois Collection Service.“It not only gives us hands-on experience with the product before it hits the market, but it opens up the communication channels to actually give input on issues we have or see in the market, resulting in a better product for us in the end.”

The Technology Adoption Program (TAP) is currently available to select clients based on thought leadership and the ability to give rich feedback.
