Sentillion Ranked #1 Vendor in KLAS' Single Sign-On & Context Management Report

ANDOVER, Mass., March 19 /PRNewswire/ -- Sentillion, the company that created healthcare Single Sign-On (SSO), announced today that it ranked #1 in the most comprehensive healthcare industry report comparing SSO and context management vendors performance. The Single Sign-On/Context Management Report (February, 2008) published by the healthcare industry's leading independent research firm, KLAS, utilized surveys and interviews with 146 healthcare provider organizations to determine the performance of several SSO and context management vendors, including: CA, Carefx(1), Encentuate, Healthcast, Imprivata, Novell and Passlogix. The KLAS report cited Sentillion as the only vendor able to offer both SSO and context management, without requiring a partner.

"When we speak to Sentillion's customers they identify Sentillion(R) support as their strongest asset and convey the huge successes they have achieved within their physician community," said Paul Pitcher, KLAS research director and author of the report.

Based on its customers' ratings, Sentillion received the best overall score of 87.50 making it the highest performing vendor. In addition, 58% of surveyed providers ranked Sentillion as their best IT vendor, which was in sharp contrast to all the vendors in the report who measured 29% or below. Sentillion also led in categories pertaining to:

    -- Services, which measured the quality of implementation, the
       implementation staff and training.
    -- Successes, which measured whether the technology lived up to
       expectations, was worth the money and worth the effort.
    -- Business indicators, which evaluated whether providers consider the
       technology as part of their long-term plan and ranking Sentillion as
       their best vendor.

For the past two years, Sentillion has maintained a consistent score well above the KLAS average and in 2007 the company was named the #1 SSO vendor in KLAS Top 20: 2007 Year-End Report.

"The SSO market is crowded and on the surface, each vendor looks and sounds alike. We applaud KLAS for taking the initiative by going out to provider organizations, talking to them about their experiences and providing an honest and accurate assessment of the state of the SSO marketplace," said Paul Roscoe, president, Sentillion. "We view customer satisfaction as the number one indicator of a vendor's performance, and we are very pleased that our own customers continue to recognize us for our technology, services and support and our proven ability to get them live quickly."
