What our clients say...

The team at QuadNova continues to amaze me at their flexibility.  Whether creating a custom program for lead management, creating an enterprise wide imaging solution, helping my internal IT department to migrate off of an AS400 based insurance processing platform to a package system running on a Sybase platform or building an intuitive frontend to a package system, they not only come through for us but they exceed my expectations by continually thinking through the project and making many value added suggestions and enhancements to help our users.

 

They are a true partner.

Quad Nova's technical team is exceptionally easy to work with and very knowledgeable about insurance and insurance distribution.  What stands out to me the most is the ability to bring cutting edge solutions to old, cumbersome and complex IT systems.

Aileen Gutwald

With a smart and professional staff, Quad Nova not just builds what you ask for, but considers what you may need to support more efficient processes and practices. The Quad Nova analyst team evaluates my requirements thoroughly and ask questions as they build.  The system releases come to me well tested and ready for implementation which saves time and produces polished products.  

During the past 14 years Quad Nova has developed and implemented software efficiencies touching on all aspects of PMI’s systems. From charge capture to payment posting and patient collections, Quad Nova has become integral to PMI’s success.
