Founder Testimonials
"Although it was a difficult decision, I am confident that it was the best decision for the future of our company, for our clients, our employees and our family. Banyan has deep knowledge across their management team, board, and investors, and provides the perfect environment to accelerate the delivery of new products and solutions."
"When I met Banyan, I quickly realized that our business vision and philosophies lined up exactly. Having been through this process several times in the past, I found that my gut was right in selecting Banyan. Today we find ourselves moving forward on the expanded sales and marketing efforts we discussed. Our future is bright and I feel confident the legacy of the company will continue for a long time to come."
"When Banyan purchased Medicat, I was both hopeful and fearful. The Banyan team quickly put my fears to rest. The transition in ownership has been very beneficial for us. We have been able to keep our family culture while being given the opportunity and resources to grow and improve our business."
