The extent to which a computer can be effectively employed in a veterinary practice depends to a large extent upon the size of the practice. Estimating defensible money investment in hardware and software prior to purchase is typically problematic because of the assumptions entailed in gauging potential return on capital. Successful software decisions flow principally from careful prepurchase planning and rigorous adherence to high standards of postpurchase support from the vendor selected. Staff involvement in the planning phase should be encouraged. The period of installation and implementation will probably be a stressful time in the practice.
计算机在兽医诊所中能够得到有效应用的程度在很大程度上取决于诊所的规模。由于在衡量资本潜在回报时存在一些假设，在购买之前估算硬件和软件方面合理的资金投入通常存在问题。成功的软件决策主要源于仔细的购买前规划以及严格遵循所选供应商提供的高标准售后支持。应鼓励员工参与规划阶段。安装和实施阶段在诊所中可能会是一段压力较大的时期。
