Rosa Delays

[anonymous]

I know a rep who uses it and was excited at first but now after some time he lost money on contract pricing and it now sits and collects dust. Any competent surgeon will see there will be no clinical difference going traditional vs robot and this just takes up time. Marketing effect minimal these days as well. Toxic is those who need to hit their numbers on a reps back. So many managers all willing to throw any and everyone under the bus to save their paychecks. Reps are sick of it, and we will do the bare minimum to support you fools.

Good thinking! It’s not like Stryker has taken share for last few years directly due to Mako. You’re right, that definitely did not happen.

They’ll get rid of you idiot and you won’t get paid. Only hurting yourself.

What is Roche doing these days?

Mako only cuts, slow translating image to workflow, 10 years old with no updates (software/hardware). Rosa has way more features and faster workflow. Get off your hump and sell.

Bunch of bs. They’ve updated with new application upgrades multiple times the last 2 years. They just launched a new hip application that includes some new crap supposedly. Overheard Stryker rep talking to one of the Mako docs about it. They continually support and upgrade their system-although the hardware seems the same. But it does more than ours anyway. We still need cut blocks! Wth is the point. We are me-too in robotics. Our one advantage is that we can basically give it away, so we have a massive advantage at Asc’s. That’s where we are pushing Rosa. Stryker isn’t offering discounts on their robot I’ve heard, so there’s no reason we shouldn’t dominate ASC going forward if they need “robotics” anyway.

Always great when our primary sell point is “it’s free” - don’t disagree w/ the comment though.
