I’m sorry that your experience at Spok was not more positive. Yes, the company is committed to change and innovation, but we also know that change is never easy. Although our customers send out over 100 million paging messages a month, Spok is well on its way to providing state of the art software technology with SaaS in the cloud. Our priority is to provide for our customers’ needs, and many of our customers still require pagers for their reliability. We remain committed to our 2200+ customers, including those using paging and on premise Spok solutions, but our vision is to improve communication and collaboration in healthcare via our innovative software platform. To support Spok’s transition, we must align some of our roles, including management roles, with the skills and abilities that are needed for success in the SaaS software world. In spite of recent changes in management, Spok’s management team still reflects stability with an average tenure of 11+ years.
