Pros

“Other times information will be saved in the medical record, then disappear. If you want to use their system to send email reminders, the reminders are generated as a separate email for each individual service, with literally nothing else in the body of the email, e.g., body of email will be Rabies vaccine 1 year. ”

Sarah C.

Owner and veterinarian

“I really liked that it was customizable so each department can make it best for what they need to see at a glance.”

Keri B.

Office Manager

“To actually have a usable reminder, it is necessary to add some type of message, combine the different emails, and delete the duplicates. ”

Sarah C.

Owner and veterinarian

Pros

“Secondly, I like that there is a feature submission option which allows the people who actually use the platform to have a direct hand in new features that could be put into the system.”

Kyra H.

Practice Manager

“The amount of customization available is helpful, information on patient visits is organized and easily acessed, adding documents is simple and fast”

Wanda F.

Practice Manager

“Too many steps involved for simple things such as scheduling appointments for multiple pets in the same family.”

Ashley T.

Lead CSR

Cons

“It also had development issues like reports not generating or financial mistakes that couldn’t be corrected without contacting support.”

Keri B.

Office Manager

“Sometimes, one patient name will show in the upper left corner, but the record will actually be for a different patient, which has caused records to be entered under the wrong patient. ”

Sarah C.

Owner and veterinarian

“As another reviewer mentioned, the "upgrade" to 2.0 has made the software so difficult and frustrating to use. ”

Sarah C.

Owner and veterinarian

Cons

“Our data migration from cornerstone came over in all the wrong categories and miss labeled support staff as doctors among other things.”

Melissa W.

Hospital administrator

“Inactive patients cannot be found with the basic search function, yet deceased pets cannot be hidden from client's active account.”
