Visma acquires Ecare and creates a unique position in the Dutch healthcare market

Visma, European leader in cloud business solutions, acquires Ecare, a specialist in information technology for the healthcare sector. Ecare helps to make healthcare in the Netherlands more efficient and better through smart and simple solutions. With this strategic acquisition, Visma is now also taking concrete steps in the primary care process, thus creating a unique position in the Dutch healthcare market.

Ecare – founded in 2007 and recently newly built at Kennispark – develops, sells and supports smart and simple software solutions and services for the healthcare sector. Flagship product PUUR. is a complete Electronic Client File with standardised and process-oriented workstations for district nursing, nursing home care and disability care. Plein and Shared Services enable care professionals to be facilitated by a smart organisational and IT policy, which leads to quality improvement and more efficient working.

Aniek Fikken, director of Ecare: “Ecare is a special organisation: we create solutions that always consider whether what is required actually supports the care professional in her work. A new partner should support us to innovate faster and better, but should not lose sight of Ecare’s identity and strength. We found this partner in Visma. We look forward to the collaboration.

John Reynders, Area Director Visma Benelux, is proud of the addition of Ecare to Visma’s portfolio: “In Ecare, Visma has found a Dutch driver of innovation. Right in the heart of the primary care process. Together we have the same ambition: to develop innovative and sustainable software that further supports and improves the entire care process.”

Addition Ecare: ‘innovative and complete healthcare cloud ecosystem’

Visma recently presented the ‘Visma Connected Experience for Healthcare’, in which Visma helps healthcare institutions to deliver quality and affordable care today and to be ready for the necessary care of tomorrow. “The addition of Ecare to our Dutch healthcare portfolio means we can offer even more value to our customers and at the same time this is another step in offering the most complete and innovative healthcare cloud ecosystem in the Netherlands,” said John Reynders.

Ecare will continue its business activities as an independent organisation under its current name. As part of the Visma family, the organisation will cooperate with other Visma companies in the healthcare ecosystem. In this way, information is exchanged more easily, allowing Visma customers to benefit even more from their software.
