Three Software Industry Experts Join Forces to Launch PointClear Solutions, an IT Services Firm Dedicated to the Application of Technology to Innovate Business
PointClear Solutions, with offices in Huntsville and Birmingham, Alabama, is a professional Information Technology services firm delivering software products to help companies innovate their business by applying technology in new ways to solve core business problems, improve the user-customer experience and redefine business processes.
PointClear’s founders, Blaine Anderson, Neal Evans and Donnie Gooch, having worked together in the past, wanted to team up and create a different type of consulting service; one tightly focused on developing software applications as products to dramatically innovate their client’s core business in breakthrough ways.
Said Blaine Anderson, CEO, “It’s been our experience that when it comes to developing software truly strategic to a business, our clients want a consulting partner with deep experience, specialized talent and the ability to think creatively when applying technology to their problem. It ultimately comes down to having the right people with the right experience using technology to transform your business.”
“Our clients want what we call ‘software with soul,’ not just another application,” added Neal Evans, Chief Technology Officer. “In our way of thinking, technology provides solutions that must be governed by the needs of our clients and the desire to maximize their customer's experience, rather than solutions being dictated by the constraints or sizzle of a particular technology. Software should be developed to help those who will use it, not for the gratification of the people who build it.”
“We take a product-based approach to software development,” said Donnie Gooch. “This means the application is strategic to our client’s business and therefore needs to be built with an appropriate level of robustness and the long-term in mind.”
Mark Weinstein, President and CEO of Bio-Imaging Technologies, Inc. (Nasdaq: BITI), said, “Blaine and his team have worked closely with us to redesign the user interface and overall program flow of our CapMed Personal Health RecordTM so we can differentiate ourselves from competitors and meet customer’s needs in unique ways. Additionally PointClear’s healthcare industry knowledge, combined with top-shelf technology expertise, has allowed us to dramatically accelerate our product development timeline.“
“This is an exciting niche to exploit,” said Kate Gray, Director of the Alabama Information Technology Association (AITA). “The market is ripe for firms like PointClear to fill critical gaps in the application development process. It looks like PointClear is off to a fast start.”
