Net Health Marks Its Sixth Appearance and Highest Ranking Yet on Inc. 5000 List
PITTSBURGH, Oct. 7, 2015 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Net Health, the leader in software solutions for specialized outpatient care, was named by Inc. magazine as one of the fastest growing private companies in America. Net Health exhibited a revenue growth of 237% and added 171 new jobs from 2011-2014.
Net Health Chairman and CEO, Anthony Sanzo, explains why the company has enjoyed fertile ground for growth. "With our focus on specialized outpatient care, we're known for products and solutions that are perfectly fitted to our clients' needs, needs that are typically overlooked by the one-size-fits-all approach offered by large and entrenched healthcare information technology (HIT) vendors."
Ranking #1712, Net Health claims its highest spot yet on the Inc. 5000, a list it has had the fortune of appearing on five previous years.
According to Sanzo, the reason for this long-time showing on the list is that Net Health targets expansion into areas not well served by more generalized HIT solutions. "In the last three years Net Health grew from roughly 50 employees to nearly 250. Over the same period the scope of our clinical, administrative, and financial IT solutions expanded significantly—broadening the draw of our client base from one medical specialty market to the five now served: Hospital Employee Health, Occupational Medicine, Rehab Therapy, Urgent Care, and Wound Care."
Net Health was recently named a Best Place to Work in Western Pennsylvania and has been recognized by Modern Healthcare magazine as one of the Best Places to Work in Healthcare, nationally. Sanzo speaks to corporate culture as a factor that sets the company apart. "We're committed to providing a workplace and culture that is a compelling differentiator. This serves us to continually attract and retain interesting and qualified team members."
About Net HealthNet Health is the leader in software solutions for specialized outpatient care. Known for being experts in The Art of the Right Fit®, fully interoperable EHR solutions serve five medical specialty markets. Offering clients an end-to-end solution that includes practice management tools, clinical workflow documentation, revenue cycle management, and analytics, Net Health serves healthcare professionals in 3,000 urgent care, wound care, physical therapy, speech and language therapy, occupational therapy, occupational medicine, employee health, and workplace medicine facilities.

TEL AVIV, Israel, Oct. 7, 2015 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Wix.com Ltd. (Nasdaq:WIX), the leading global web development platform, announced today the launch of its new, completely redesigned website editor. With a unique and highly intuitive user interface, industry first features, integrated functionality, designer-made website templates and hundreds of pre-designed components, the Wix Editor sets a new standard in code-free web design providing users with a tailored experience designed to fit their business niche. Offering a highly visual and fun design experience, the new Wix Editor streamlines the learning curve and lets any user successfully create and publish the website they envision.
This is the company's first full redesign of its cloud-based web editing software since launching the industry's first do-it-yourself HTML5 Editor in 2012. The new Wix Editor further solidifies Wix's technology leadership by setting a new global standard in code-free and accessible website design and management.
"Recognizing that today's Internet users expect a personalized, intuitive and multi-faceted experience, we've created the industry's most comprehensive code-free editing software for creating a professional online presence," said Avishai Abrahami, Wix Co-Founder and CEO. "Based on the user's business category, the new Editor provides a tailored experience, where the features and capabilities most needed are at their fingertips. This isn't just a product improvement, it's a leap in what the market has come to expect from code-free platforms."
Some of the industry-leading code-free features include:
- Full screen strip layouts – Containing multiple design elements such as video, image galleries, text and more, these horizontal strips help split up the page into clear sections, allowing for stylistic variation. True to Wix's drag and drop technology, these strip containers can be edited and repositioned anywhere.
- Full page video background – Users can upload their own videos or choose from Wix's free video background library to easily set up an eye-catching video background for their websites. Unique to the Wix Editor, all video backgrounds, whether full page or on a strip, can be customized by layering any design element, such as pattern overlays and color palettes, included in the Editor.
- Single click Parallax effect – A first for code-free platforms, users can now give their website an added layer of dimension by adding a parallax scrolling effect with just single click.
- Anchor menus and docking elements – Essential but not exclusive to long scrolling websites, Wix users can effortlessly create a smooth website navigation experience by utilizing Wix's new anchor menus and element docking feature.
- Personalization and tailored features – Based on the users' profile, the Wix Editor will suggest design and business elements from both the Editor and the Wix App Market to give users the guidance necessary to create the most effective possible sites.
- Verticalized templates – Dedicated templates built with business in mind and utilizing new design capabilities allowing users to more readily input key features while maintaining pure a drag and drop interface.
- Contextual in-Editor support – The New Wix Editor provides users with intelligent and curated support throughout the design process without ever having to leave the Editor.
The new Wix Editor is based on a complete restructuring of the platform's codebase developed using Facebook's React technology. Offering a significantly leaner codebase, better modularization and improved testability, this new technology enables Wix to roll out features previously unseen in the code-free web design sector with unprecedented speed.

Yodlee Releases New Version of FastLink to Enable Creation and Adoption of Financial Solutions Faster and Easier Than Ever
REDWOOD CITY, Calif., Oct. 6, 2015 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Yodlee® (Nasdaq:YDLE), the leading platform driving digital financial innovation, today announced an update to FastLink with its version 2.0. This premium feature used by financial institutions and fintech innovators to access transaction-level financial data enables faster time-to-market and consumer onboarding for innovative digital financial services and apps. With the new version of FastLink, consumers will have access to a quick and easy omni-channel experience that will help them add accounts in seconds.
It can be difficult for consumers to add and verify accounts for digital financial solutions since there are more than 14,000 data sources that are constantly changing with additions, and deletions. This unique, patented technology leverages Yodlee's 16 years of experience by bringing together consumer transactional data for the largest financial providers in the world. FastLink facilitates the easy linking of external financial accounts to power any digital money management service without compromising security or privacy. According to one study, consumers with aggregated financial accounts are more engaged with their financial institution, logging in 54 percent more frequently than online bankers without aggregation. FastLink speeds up the onboarding process and enables financial app developers to seamlessly add several accounts that their users hold at different banks.
Yodlee FastLink version 2.0 focuses on increasing usability across devices while retaining all the functionality from the original version. In addition, it improves add account success rates and enables a flexible user experience. New updates, include:
- Omni-Channel Experience: FastLink has been built to be fully responsive, context-aware and adaptable, with functional support across mobile, web, and tablet deployments.
- Improved Efficacy and Visibility: FastLink allows consumers to add multiple accounts simultaneously and account linkage will be further enhanced with new search capabilities and keywords, additional search options, and visual enhancements, ultimately increasing success rates.
- Enhanced Developer Tools: FastLink enables developers to build a flexible user experience, by easily integrating search, login, edit account, edit credentials, and balance and transactions refresh manage accounts into the user experience flow. FastLink will also provide an effective out-of-the-box experience and reduce the burden for developers to build their own.
"With the explosion of alternative financial services technologies over the last decade, it is important that both our financial institutions and fintech innovators have a way to develop tools that help them give their customers what they need as well as help them stay competitive in a crowded market," says John Bird, VP of Product Marketing and Alliances at Yodlee. "When we were developing this new version of FastLink, we wanted to make sure that it provided tools that would make accessing and creating digital solutions even easier across devices."
