SHELTON, Conn., Feb. 2, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- International
medical imaging IT and cybersecurity
company Sectra (STO: SECT B) has won the
prestigious customer satisfaction award 'Best in KLAS' for PACS for
the eighth consecutive year. Sectra is ranked number one by
healthcare providers in three regions: US (Large PACS and Small
PACS), Canada, and Europe. The company has also swept the new
award for Digital Pathology (non-US). The awards are given by the
healthcare IT data and insights company KLAS Research.
US customers have, for the eighth year in a row, ranked Sectra's
radiology imaging solution, Sectra PACS, as number one. According
to the 2021 Best in KLAS: Software and Services Report, the
category 'Culture' — including the three subjects 'Keeps all
promises', 'Product works as promoted' and 'Proactive service'
— is where Sectra scores the highest compared to the industry
average.
"The support people and the people who work with us have all
been great. We have had a good relationship with everyone in our
local area, the US corporate team, and those who have worked with
us from Sweden. Sectra has a good
culture. We have seen teams jump in to help, and it seems like
everyone works well together," says a US VP/Other Executive to KLAS
Research in December 2020.
It is the second year in a row that Sectra has been named 'Best
in KLAS' for PACS in Canada and
Nader Soltani, President of Sectra Canada, comments: "Since we
established our Canadian organization three years ago, we have
worked intensely to build close relationships with our customers
and to provide great support. I am so proud of this seal of quality
that proves that our dedication is paying off."
Sectra has its roots in Europe,
where it also received the 2021 'Best in KLAS' PACS award. The
first installation of the software was in Sweden in 1993 and now, the company has more
than 2,000 installations worldwide. Today, the radiology PACS is an
integral part of its enterprise imaging solution comprising VNA and
spanning all image-intense departments. One of which is the new
'Best in KLAS' category Digital Pathology (non-US) that was also
won by Sectra. Since the launch of Sectra's digital pathology
solution in 2015, it has grown to support full-scale primary
diagnostics at large healthcare providers worldwide to improve
cancer diagnostics. During 2020, it also received FDA approval in
the US.
"Sectra Digital Pathology Solution is a great product. It really
suits my needs. When I started using the system, I was really
impressed with how well suited the system was for the needs of the
pathologist. Sectra is very service minded and easy to get in
contact with. When we have suggestions on developmental things or
improvements, Sectra is easy to talk to, and they note our
suggestions and take them forward. It is really
exciting to work with Sectra because we really feel that they
listen to us," says a European Manager to KLAS Research in
December 2020.
Torbjörn Kronander, President and CEO of Sectra says: "To be
selected by our customers as the preferred imaging vendor for
digital pathology as well as for radiology across the US,
Canada and Europe is a great honor. Happy users are the
ultimate proof that Sectra's staff and solutions deliver great
value for our customers, contributing to improving the
effectiveness in healthcare."
