VIRTUAL SERVERS : Fitting Wizard V-Server

Audiology Practice Server Solution: The V-Server for Fitting and Claim Wizard

Bluewave has developed a server solution for Audiology practices.

Why host your Fitting Wizard or Claim Wizard Software on your own local computer network, with all the technical problems associated with it?
What will you do when you want to work from home, or want to open a second practice?

To answer these questions, we have teamed with the developers at Biotronic to develop the V-Server. We give it all the functionality required to run the Fitting Wizard, or Claim Wizard in your practice without the headache and with all the features you need and may need in the future.

Our V-Server solution removes the capital cost, risk and responsibility of implementing and maintaining a complex server environment within your practice. Combine this with tax deductible monthly payments and no setup fees and you have a long-term, cost effective solution for hosting and backing up the Fitting Wizard or Claim Wizard. Basically we take care of your computer system so you have time to focus on your practice.

This industry standard solution offers the ability to access the Fitting Wizard / Claim Wizard from multiple computers, in multiple practices, as well as from home, at the same time.

What makes the V-Server different?

The V-server has been optimised for Audiology. We have focused on a number of criteria;

  1. Speed: the V-Server technology enables very fast response similar to a local install, and faster than a network installation
  2. Local printing: you can print from the V-Server to any of your local printers, from anywhere
  3. Automated copy of Noah test files are uploaded from a local Noah to the Fitting Wizard Test folder on the V-Server
  4. Saving and storing your documents on the V-Server
  5. Setup to allow on line OHS claiming
  6. Email enabled for Vouchers verification emails

Who would benefit from moving to a V-Server?

Start Up Practices
The cloud computing model is perfect for start-up practices as there is no up-front capital expenditure on hardware or software and your small monthly investment provides you with immediate, secure and fast access to Fitting Wizard.

Practice Groups
The V-Server is also an excellent option for practice groups looking to move to using a single Fitting Wizard from multiple branches as deploying a central server and VPN does involve a significant capital investment and can take some weeks to build, test and deploy. The V-Server is deployed much more rapidly and simply involves adding more users when you open your new branch.

Single Practices
The V-Server offers single practices server level features without the need for the capital investment required to deploy a server in the practice. Features include automated backups, remote access to Fitting Wizard from home, better redundancy and disaster recovery options as well as physical protection from power surges, fire, theft and flooding.
