How to choose

1. Map must-have features (e.g., e‑prescribing, insurance billing, inventory controls).
2. Decide deployment: cloud (SaaS) for lower IT overhead vs on‑prem for data control.
3. Estimate total cost of ownership: subscription + implementation + add‑ons + hardware.
4. Ask about integrations: EHR, payer clearinghouses, accounting, label printers.
5. Check compliance & support SLAs: HIPAA/data residency, uptime, training availability.
6. Request demos & trials with your workflow and sample data; compare time-to-go-live.
7. Get references from similar-sized pharmacies or clinics.

Red flags

• Vague pricing or hidden transaction fees.
• No clear support or slow onboarding timelines.
• Limited reporting or poor inventory controls for high-turnover pharmacies.
• Weak audit trails or unclear compliance features.
