Case Study: AssistRx achieves 25–30% IT cost savings and HIPAA-compliant cloud migration with Flexential

Specialty pharmaceutical company reduces IT costs by 25 to 30% in the cloud

AssistRx, a specialty pharmaceutical software company, needed a secure, compliant and scalable IT environment to support rapid growth and win the largest customer in its history. Facing a fragmented infrastructure, aging systems and a hard 60-day deadline to demonstrate HIPAA compliance and data protection, AssistRx sought a partner able to centralize production systems and meet strict regulatory and performance requirements.

Flexential delivered a VMware-based HIPAA-compliant virtual private cloud, coordinating security (via SilverSky/BAE) and migration specialists to move 150 servers in just 45 days and secure a third‑party HIPAA assessment. The move eliminated major capital expenditures, cut IT costs by 25–30%, and boosted performance, reliability and scalability—helping AssistRx satisfy its new client and position the company for future growth.
