UNAVETS (“UNAVETS”), a European platform for veterinary centers with over 43 practices across Spain and Portugal, announced today their partnership with Petabyte Technology (“Petabyte”), a leading veterinary software company, to join the newly established Petabyte Consortium, which is focused on cleaning and standardizing data to improve veterinary practices across the world.

Petabyte revolutionizes patient management for veterinary hospitals through its suite of software solutions, including Rhapsody, a cloud-based Practice Information Management System (PIMS); Petabyte Analytics, an enterprise-level analytics platform; and Boop, a mobile application simplifying the pet care experience for pet parents. With innovative features such as standardized data, comprehensive wellness plans, virtual check-in, on-the-go communications, and a built-in payment system, Petabyte enables doctors to deliver exceptional care to pets and their families.

“Petabyte was founded with a mission to simplify veterinary operations to help doctors and staff care for pets and their families,” said Michael Hyman, Co-Founder and Chief Executive Officer of Petabyte. “UNAVETS’ mission of supporting vets so they can focus on delivering the best healthcare is a goal we share, making this collaboration a natural choice. Furthermore, partnering with UNAVETS is another step towards setting the industry standard on a global level through next-generation software.”

UNAVETS’ corporate group will start by leveraging Petabyte’s analytics platform as they continue to expand across EMEA, switching to localized versions of Petabyte’s products as they roll out. As the Petabyte Consortium continues to expand, Petabyte and UNAVETS invite other forward-thinking veterinary partners and groups to collaborate on using Petabyte’s software to transform the future of pet care on a global stage through Petabyte’s suite of software solutions. UNAVETS is the third group to join Petabyte’s Consortium with more updates expected to be released as the Consortium continues to welcome new partners.

“UNAVETS’ key focus is elevating the level of healthcare for all pets and their families. This partnership was formed because we strongly believe that Petabyte’s next generation software will expand our ability to support that mission on multiple fronts,” comments Junko Sheehan, Founder and Chief Executive Officer of UNAVETS. “The ‘customer journey’ of today’s pet parents requires a digitally forward-thinking approach with mobile check-in, check-out, digital records, seamless online booking, etc., and we believe that Petabyte’s next generation of software is capable of providing this and much more. As the pandemic has increased the demand for veterinary healthcare worldwide, we hope that providing best-in-class software solutions to clinics will be important to alleviate excess demands on our vets, so they can focus on what they love doing – providing the best care for our pets.”

Founded in 2019, Petabyte’s mission is to give veterinary healthcare practitioners greater understanding and control over their business using cloud-based technology. Petabyte is a unique enterprise practice management solution that allows veterinary practices to run more efficient operations and deliver better patient veterinary care.
