3 Benefits of User-Friendly Software

You probably hear the terms, “ease-of-use” and “user-friendly” all the time, especially when it comes to technology. Often, these things can be overlooked when making purchasing decisions, because consumers mistakenly think they’re more of a “soft” benefit, or that it means the product is lacking in functionality. However, easy-to-use pharmacy software really means that a system was designed to blend seamlessly into your store. That way, you can perform vital functions more efficiently with minimal impact on your day-to-day operations. In fact, when your pharmacy software is easy to use, it doesn’t just sound nice, it benefits your business.

Here are three ways user-friendly software helps your pharmacy:

1. Intuitive interfaces require less training time.

When selecting a pharmacy management system, make sure it’s visually appealing. The reality is, no matter how great the functionality is, no one wants to look at cluttered screens or obnoxious color schemes all day. To ensure your pharmacy software isn’t overwhelming to use, look for a system that:

     • Displays tasks one at a time.

     • Offers a variety of customizations.

     • Utilizes a simple, intuitive interface.

In fact, the more simple and intuitive the software is, the easier it will be for new users to navigate the system. While this may not seem like a big deal, a reduced learning curve means less training time during the initial implementation, and that new employees will be able to pick it up quickly in the future as well. Read more >
