OSCAR Support

Commercial Support

OSCAR is a free, open source product, and has a variety of companies and individuals supporting it.  You are free to 'do it yourself' but this requires in depth understanding of server administration and security.  There are a number of companies who can do this for you.

OSCAR maintenance and support are provided by OSCAR Support Providers (OSPs).   OSPs make sure that your OSCAR system is up to date, they are private companies and function independently of the OSCAR Canada Users Society (OCUS).

 

Find out about the OSPs

Potential clients of these companies should research them to ensure they are happy with their choices.  Ways to do that research include, asking for references and joining the OSCAR UserGroup email discussion list to ask other OSCAR users about their experiences.

 

OSCAR Support Providers are listed alphabetically:

CanEMR Medical Solutions

ClearMedica

Indivica

Open Health Software Solutions Inc.

OSCAR Service Inc.

OSCARWest

Peaceworks Computer Consulting Inc.

Providecom International

Wertheimer Computer Works Inc., Montreal, Quebec

These are private companies that are known to  OSCAR Canada User's Society.  They function independently of the Society.

Most of these companies provide installation services and you can also purchase an OSCARA (OSCAR appliance - a server and backup device/server with OSCAR already installed and configured for you) from some of them.  An OSCARA is designed as an 'out of the box' solution for OSCAR installation.  You may also like to (we recommend) get ongoing support and training from one of the OSCAR Service Providers.  Security and reliability of your OSCAR system should be paramount in your plans.
