The anticipation for Geonetric’s annual eHealth Symposium felt a little like waiting for Christmas as a kid. As an account manager I get to interact with our clients daily, and usually that interaction takes place over the phone. I was excited to meet our amazing clients in person and most importantly introduce them to the large support team we have at Geonetric! I get to experience the great work of our designers, content writers, strategists and brains behind our software ... Read More >>

It’s so easy to get bogged down in the day-to-day trenches and forget that smart, dedicated people can do incredible work over long time spans. I just finished the two hour marathon all-hands company meeting which wraps up 2011 and communicates plans for 2012. In doing so, I had the same reaction I have every year: Holy cow we got a lot done!
Here are some of the highlights:
Revenue: For the sixth year in a row, we had record revenue growth,

This week marks the beginning of the holiday season and perhaps you’ll usher it in playing board games with family after feasting on turkey, mashed potatoes and stuffing. Maybe you’ll pull out the T.V. trays, load up a plate with lasagna and watch the football game with your neighbors. Or you may have no real plans except to chart out your path through the closest big box store for those Black Friday sales. Regardless, the holidays are upon us.
At Geonetric, ... Read More >>

Four years ago, Geonetric made a big change. We knew the software development process we had in place could be improved. Enter Scrum, an Agile software development methodology. On our “scrumiversary” we like to reflect on how far we’ve come, and to renew our dedication to continuous improvement.
One of the key principles of Agile is ‘inspect and adapt’ – that is, to constantly evaluate what you’re doing and analyze the value those activities are producing. If you’re familiar with ... Read More >>

This past Sunday turned out to be an absolutely picture perfect fall day. It was a joy to be outside and have the opportunity to join together with 16,000 people from across Eastern Iowa for one cause. Team Geonetric, along with our friends and family, hit the pavement of Cedar Rapids to support breast cancer awareness and services throughout our local community in the 21st annual Mercy Hospital Especially for You Race/Walk.
Why do we participate? Here are a few reasons ... Read More >>

Computer and video gaming is a massive industry, consuming millions of hours of people’s time every year. When you step back and watch, you find the activities in these games are often repetitive, monotonous, frustrating and sometimes painful. Find 50 widgets. Kill 100 critters. Collect 1,000 coins. It’s a wonder that gamers invest so much time into the gaming grind.
There are other activities we’d like to have people do that can feel a lot like the tedious parts of these ... Read More >>
It happens when you build websites founded on research, designed to be engaging and written to connect with audiences. Already this year Geonetric clients have taken home Aster Awards, Hermes Creative Awards, and Web Health Awards. And it’s only June! Well, we can add two more to that list, because last week The Interactive Media Awards announced its 2011 winners, and Geonetric’s own Dean, headquartered in Madison, WI, and St. Vincent’s HealthCare, headquartered in Jacksonville, FL, took top honors.
Dean and ... Read More >>
