Vanco - The grass isn’t always greener on the other side. Datascan is tried and true
Everyone knows the old adage “if you love something set it free, if it comes back it was meant to be.” Who ever thought that could apply to a pharmacy software vendor?! Vanco Pharmacy on Long Island has been in business since the 1970s and has become a staple in its town. The pharmacy industry has evolved by leaps and bounds since the 70s, and independent pharmacy Vanco has gone through an exorbitant amount of change to remain competitive and successful. Although Vanco is one of Datascan’s early clients, back in 2010 Vanco made the change to McKesson Pharmaserv after McKesson offered a package that was supposed to save them money across the board. The change was temporary, as Vanco quickly learned that the grass isn’t always greener on the other side.
