Nookal has been a large improvement from our previous practice management software. There are a number of really good features, however there are some things that need a little tweaking that would make the overall use significantly easier for both administrators and therapists.
Treatment notes are very easy to write. This saves therapists a large amount of time. Multiple clinics with tabs makes looking across clinics very easy.
Updating current therapist diaries has become very annoying. You can no longer edit a current timetable and have it begin from a certain date, as it automatically goes live from the date you input it on. This was not the case previously. This makes changing rosters troublesome and very annoying. The paste feature should not push everything above it upwards. Very annoying when completing treatment notes, pasting something, then having the line above move up to continue on with the paragraphgearlier.
Hi Ben, thank you for your great review and feedback. Our development team take all user feedback on board when planning upgrades, so thank you for taking the time to share your personal experience.

I would love to recommend people to use the program, however I have been turned off by the poor customer service.
The ease of use is excellent and it contains a lot of features for the price.
Customer service is horrible once you are signed on as a client. It takes weeks (if at all) for problems to be resolved.
Hi Aidan, thank you for your feedback, we truly appreciate your honesty. We pride ourselves on offering excellent customer service and we are very sorry to hear that this has not been a part of your experience. If there is anything you need assistance with now (or in the future) please do via email at support@nookal.com and we will do our utmost to resolve your concerns as quickly as we can.

Overall really positive - keep improving!
Ease of use - it just does exactly what it should.
No certificate of capacity with treatment plans. Horrible phone / mobile interface - needs a change pronto
Thanks Liam, we appreciate you taking the time to give us feedback. Agreed, we recognise that our mobile interface needs a rework and will be making improvements across the site in 2022.

A++++++ service and excellent program. Ease of use to login from anywhere. Home or office. User friendly perfect for third party claiming. Tech support easy to chat with friendly and helpful in addition to their own help page with tips tricks for setting up various processes - With pictures and excellent descriptions.
Ease of use and sense of humor with developers
Having trouble loading the diary page to fit within the parameters of smart phone screen. If I wish to log into the diary while out shopping and I see one of my patients that wants an appointment it would be good if the dairy page loaded to fit visually within the frame of a smart phone.
Thanks so much, Lucinda. We love that you enjoy the Nookal sense of humour and product as a whole. We are working on improving our Mobile interface this year so we thank you for your comments and have taken them on board. If you do need support using the app in the meantime please do not hesitate to contact us at support@nookal.com

Nookal is just easy to use. Its essential software in our practice and ticks all the boxes to run a busy Private Practice effectively. There is always someone help you out if you need it and also willing to take suggestions on for further development.
I love that it is very specific for our industry and integrates really well with MYOB/Xero to make accounting easier.
There really isn't anything that I can find to complain about with Nookal. At times, you need to work around things, but that is really just about becoming more familiar with the software.
Hi Teira, thanks so much for taking the time to provide us with such an excellent review! We love to hear that our customers are happy and we'll ensure that we increase Nookal functionality and useabilty in 2022.

Help team are knowledgeable and very quick to assist when required.
Ease of use for small practice is great. Mobile app is great for quick diary checks. Like that it sends automatic reminders to patients.
Need face recognition for mobile app. Need automated Covid Questionnaire Client Form. I have to send this manually each day.
Thanks so much for your review Tyron, it is great that you find Nookal so helpful.

Before Nookal, I had a paper diary, and was sending SMS reminders myself on my phone, and typing out my own invoices. Nookal has transformed my clinic, and saved me so much time.
I am not IT savvy at all, but I manage to do all I need to with Nookal, to reduce my admin load and streamline some processes for me. Its very easy and logical to follow, with all the essential features for a small psychology practices. There's been a few times Ive need support, and Nookal have always been responsive and helpful
Perhaps more specialised templates inbuilt
Hi Jillian, we are so pleased that your experience with using Nookal has enabled you to save time and transform your clinic. Thank you for taking the time to pass on this fabulous feedback.

Is a good software to use in place of other medical recording.
Easy to use. Layout is organised & simple design.
No restriction of access to medical files - reception staff should not be able to access clinical notes.
Hi Monique, thanks for taking the time to leave us a great review! You can control which staff members have access to clinical notes in your account - you just have to customise your permissions groups: https://www.nookal.com/help/managing-staff-permissions Please feel free to contact us at support@nookal.com and we'll work to assist you.

Personable service, good documentation to follow to resolve issues and real time chat option.
Colour and templates you produce yourself to what you require and able to send emails from service.
Initially long lag in response that has become much faster. Being in a different country this was important for me as need problems solved at the time I was experiencing them. Still have insurance claims reading incomplete and cannot mark them as dealt with ....distracting as have to open them up again each time to see if have been dealt with in the invoice notes.
Hi Heidi, we appreciate your honest feedback and are thrilled that you enjoy the range of features that Nookal offers.

Very, very positive. I haven't even felt the need to seriously investigate other platforms
I am able to perform al the necessary tasks of my occupation either through this program directly, or a program I have linked to it. It makes the process of recording treatment notes, invoicing, and calculating things like KPIs or commission quickly and accurately
The IM between colleagues using the same program is a little hard to notice/be aware of unless you're actively looking for IMs
Hi Lachlan, thanks for taking the time to leave us such a wonderful review. It's greatly appreciated!

Happy with all futures. Nookal is what I need for the size of my business.
Easy to set up and navigate. Happy with pricing.
I would like the Analytics to be better explained as it was not so easy at first to understand all the numbers.

Nookal is great software, easy to use and has great integration with other apps like physitrack
Nookal is great with all it's integrations with physitrack, apple diary. Can be used in the desktop, laptop or iphone
Check the diary on the app could be improved, as there have been times where appointments have been changed by accident.
Hi Jade, we're so glad that you love Nookal! Thank you for taking the time to leave us a great review, as we love to hear that our users are happy.

Great, would recommend but making templates can be limited sometimes.
Easy to use, easy to navigate, easy to rebook patients and bill.
Making the template on nookal can get very difficult
Thanks for your positive review, Jimmy! The team and I genuinely appreciate you taking the time to complete this. On your feedback, we are looking at enhancing our Clinical Note templates in the future. If you have feedback on other templates, please let us know at support@nookal.com

This has been a excellent purchase and I can not see working without Nookal now
Nookal has allowed me to go paperless in terms of clinical notes, invoicing, appointments and allows my secretary to work remotely saving on office bills
There have bene occasional issues with the e-mailing of letters but this has been resolved well by the company.
Hi Jonathan, we are delighted that you are enjoying Nookal! We pride ourselves in providing great support for our customers so we are thrilled that when you have required our assistance resolutions were achieved in a timely manner.

It's a solid product that is user-friendly, accessible and gets the job done. Some minor tweaks to make it less confusing/finicky may make it perfect.
I liked how it was quite easy to use and straight forward. I appreciate how the software is accessible anywhere (via phone or desktop) and responsive. It fulfils all my needs and gets the job done.
The software can be almost too finicky at times, such as when trying to book another appointment (manually dragging the appointment slot makes it hard to get the exact time). It would be great to get prompted on what each colour the appointment slot means in regards to the type of appointment (rather than having to try guess/remember).
Hi Aaron, thanks for your feedback about the site in general and the diary. That's helpful to know about the appointment slot colour. We will look at a solution for this in 2022.

Overall experience is very positive and I expect to be using it for many years to come.
The setup checklist made it very straightforward for a new user and the software is intuitive. It has all the functions I was looking for that other software was lacking.
No software is perfect and the DIY import could be improved, as not all patient details can be improved so you have to manually edit each one anyway. Though they will do this for you for a fee, if you have time to wait.
Thanks Megan for taking the time to provide us with your great feedback, we certainly do appreciate it. We are always striving to improve our product and our service and we hope to meet your expectations if not exceed them in time to come.

Frustrating to get to know where to find things and determine functionality. It was good though to learn from the various training based emails and pop ups.
The client "arrived" function is good if you can keep an eye on it from treatment rooms.
Perhaps more security for sensitive case files when in an Allied health system. Mental Health case notes need not be accessible to some physical therapists.
Hi Rhondda, Thank you for your feedback - it is appreciated. Currently, you could set your Mental Health Practitioners to have Private clinical notes which will make them visible to only themselves: https://www.nookal.com/help/setting-up-staff-as-providers Please contact us at support@nookal.com if we can guide you further.
