Key Strategic Insights: All-in-One vs Multi-Product Suite

🎯 Mixed Fleet Advantage

BlueFletch Healthcare provides true mixed fleet support (Android/Windows/iOS) in a single platform, while Imprivata requires multiple products: MDA for Android, MAM for iOS/Android checkout, and EAM for workstations - creating complexity and higher costs.

🔧 Simplified Architecture

BlueFletch offers one platform, one console, one vendor relationship. Imprivata's approach requires integrating multiple products (EAM + MDA + MAM + ID), each with separate licensing, deployment, and management requirements.

💰 Total Cost of Ownership

BlueFletch Healthcare's transparent all-inclusive pricing eliminates the complexity of multiple product licenses, MDM requirements, and professional services fees that Imprivata's multi-product approach demands.

⚡ Implementation Speed

Single platform deployment versus complex multi-product integration. BlueFletch Healthcare eliminates the need to coordinate between EAM, MDA, MAM, and third-party MDM solutions, significantly reducing implementation time and complexity.
