Alere's adaptability had us move forward with them

March 16th, 2023 • Product Experience: 0-6 months • Role: End User

Across the board, for the level of ERP we were looking for, they almost all offered similar functionlaity but it was Alere’s adaptability that had us move forward with them. We had a few specialized features that were essential and most of the providers told us they could not meet that need. ALERE jumped right in and customized what was needed to assure those needs were met.
