ZulaFly has hundreds of satisfied clients with a deep experience partnering with RTLS and other technology vendors to successfully deliver location-enabled solutions for large health systems in North America and globally.

“We were amazed by the performance and accuracy of Penguin’s technology. With very limited hardware, we could validate high-velocity location updates and room-level accuracy out of the box. We are excited for the promising future ahead with this partnership.” – Stephanie Andersen, Founding Partner, ZulaFly

“We are enthusiastic about the combined end-to-end workflow solutions we can now commercialize with ZulaFly. Their extensive first-hand experience and successful deployment and management of workflow, safety and environmental monitoring solutions can help accelerate the proliferation of location services in healthcare” – Mohammed Smadi, PhD, CEO, Penguin Location Services
