Software intended to support medtech product sales has traditionally been developed for delivery on platforms that are less than optimal for field use—including both desktop and laptop computers. More recently, a number of firms have begun to develop sales-support software suitable for less-cumbersome alternatives such as handheld personal digital assistants (PDAs). Although many such systems can be configured to meet the needs of medtech sales reps, few are designed with such needs in mind. Following is a list of developers that offer software with utility in medtech sales.
