What buyers should weigh
- Delivery is heavily offshore, which some organizations restrict for PHI handling or contract policy reasons; review data governance closely.
- It is a services company, not a software product, so results depend on the specific team and account management you get.
- Private equity ownership with a 2025 stake sale means strategy and pricing pressure can shift with the ownership cycle.
