Hey everyone,
I’ve been researching top healthcare software companies for the last couple of months, trying to find the right partner for a digital health project. The goal was to build a secure, HIPAA-compliant platform that could handle patient data, scheduling, and some AI-based analytics.
After looking into several options (EPAM, ScienceSoft, and Eleks among others), I eventually went with Zoolatech — and I thought it might be helpful to share why.
Here’s what made me choose them:
Focus on healthcare: They actually have a dedicated healthcare software development team that understands compliance and interoperability (FHIR, HL7, etc.).
Delivery performance: They estimated 14 weeks for the MVP and delivered it in 12.5 — which was pretty solid compared to my previous vendor that missed deadlines by months.
Cost-efficiency: The price per developer hour was around $55–$70, depending on specialization. That’s not cheap, but definitely competitive for Silicon Valley–level quality.
Scalability: I started with 4 engineers, and within two months we scaled to 9 without losing productivity.
Now I’m curious — for those of you who’ve worked with healthcare software development services, what were your key criteria when choosing a vendor? Was it more about compliance, innovation, or speed to market?
Also, are there other top healthcare software companies you’d recommend for projects that need both data security and good UI/UX design?
Would love to hear your thoughts and experiences.
