Vendor neutral archives are platforms aimed at empowering healthcare organizations to control, manage, store, and consolidate imaging data by streamlining the imaging workflow between PACS (Picture Archiving and Communication Systems), EHRs (Electronic Health Records), and data centers. Along with the global market for VNA, the PACS market is also given to provide a comparative analysis of both the healthcare information systems. The product lifecycles of each of these systems varies to a very large extent.

It is believed that the vendor neutral archives market is positioned in a phase (exponential phase) where the PACS market was around 10 to 15 years ago. The PACS market, on the other hand, is a mature market that is typically characterized by the market players trying to invest in product differentiations and looking for new customer groups.

Based on the delivery mode, the market is categorized into on-premise VNAs, hybrid VNAs, and fully cloud-hosted VNAs. On-premise VNAs dominate the current market in terms of total revenue contribution due to the high preference of this mode over others. This preference is as a result of better data control and high security provided by on-premise VNA solutions. However, owing to the large capital expenditure involved for on-premise VNAs, hybrid VNA solutions that involve a cloud-based component for storage are now capturing the attention of small and medium-sized healthcare providers.

The advantages of vendor neutral archives over picture archiving and communication system in terms of interoperability, flexibility, and accessibility are propelling the adoption of the VNA technology in the market. Apart from this, favorable and promising government reforms in the healthcare information technology field are also stimulating the market. The major hindrances to the growth of the market are rising incidences of data breaches, complexity of the VNA concept, lack of a proper industry-accepted definition of VNAs, and long VNA lifecycles (that impacts VNA deployment decisions). With this, the market is all set to witness trends such as integration of VNAs with EHRs, employment of cloud computing solutions for VNA products, and a holistic approach for delivering enhanced patient care.
