We curated some of the efforts to speed up the homework. Here’s a look at the best COVID-19 vaccine management platforms so far. To decide on a vaccine management tool, enterprises need to consider a few variables. For instance:
Is the path of least resistance tying vaccine management to a current system and/or function within the company?Will vaccine management be more of an ongoing service, workflow tool?Can you add on to an existing platform or do you require consultants and something custom?And does vaccine management represent an ongoing IT purchase beyond the pandemic?
Pondering some of those questions may reveal a lot about what software vendor to choose. For instance, a Workday customer may see vaccine management as an extension of human capital management. ServiceNow customers may find it easier to add vaccine management as part of overall workflow processes. Salesforce’s Vaccine Cloud will already have integration with existing systems that are used by healthcare and government entities. Also: Coronavirus (COVID-19) Updates and News Healthline Other vendors also have vaccine management platforms but may require consultants and additional services.
