Switching from your current system · Bangladesh

You already have a system. Moving off it cost the last hospital six minutes.

Every hospital and diagnostic centre already runs something. The reason they keep it is not that it is good; it is that switching sounds like a weekend of chaos. We move the old database in place, verify the totals, and bring the new system up — with downtime measured in minutes.

How the day goes

Close the counter, move the data, check the totals, open the counter.

The migration tool moves the old system’s data — patients, bills, ledgers, stock, reports — into the new one on the same box, and the arithmetic is verified before staff are let back in. There is no double entry period and no “we’ll bring the history over later.”

Your staff go home on one system and come in on the other.

What you get on the other side

A system that works without the internet, is run by us, and already knows your medicines.

Switching is only worth six minutes if what you land on is better. The full case is on the hospital software page; the short version is that it keeps working when the line drops, and nobody at the hospital ever has to look after a server again.

Straight answers

The questions buyers ask

Do we lose our history?
No. Patients, bills, ledgers, stock and reports are moved from the old database into the new system, in place. The totals are checked against the old system before anyone starts working on the new one.
How long are we actually down?
The last measured switch-overs were 6 minutes and 1 second (Comfort Unit-2, 22,918 rows) and 4 minutes and 6 seconds (Samakal). The data move itself took seventeen seconds at Comfort Unit-2; the rest is bringing the new system up and checking it.
Our database is very large.
The largest move so far was Paradise, at 1.22 million rows. Size changes how long the copy takes, not whether it works.
What do our staff have to do?
Go home on one system and come in on the other. Logins are created in advance; the layouts are shown to the counter and lab staff before the day; someone from us is on the line during the switch.
What if something is wrong afterwards?
The old database is kept. A specific figure that does not match is checked against it. Nothing is deleted on switch-over day.
