President Health, Wellness and Fitness Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Excellent practice management software for Optometry" September 20, 2019 5.0 Optosys allows us to operate multiple clinic locations with ease. The support team are very responsive and many requested features have been added based on our feedback over the years. Our doctors love the versatile exam module as it can be highly customized. The performance reporting (KPI) gives us a great, real-time view of clinic performance. We could not operate as efficiently without Optosys. Pros Reliable, comprehensive and well supported feature set. Supports day to day optometry and optical operations. Various modules cover every aspect of electronic medical records, appointment booking, retail sales, product ordering, reporting, and invoicing and provincial health medical billing, web patient intake forms. Features such as eOrdering and online appointment booking set us ahead of our competition for efficiency and patient convenience. Cons No concerns - it does everything we require. Alternatives considered [Visual-Eyes](https://www.capterra.com/p/127866/Visual-Eyes/) Reason for choosing Optosys Optosys has placed better thought into screen layout and functionality. User interface design as well as reliability is a priority. It makes it easy to on-board new staff as the interface is intuitive and buttons and functions are logically organized where you would expect to find them. Review Source KB Karine B. Optometrist Hospital & Health Care Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Best EMR for optometrists" January 26, 2023 5.0 The best part was the in office training provided when we first converted. The second best part is how often they are updating and always striving to improve the software. They take your suggestions into consideration and your input matters. Pros Exam and letter templates are all incredibly easy to customize to your individual preferences and this is what makes this software amazing. Being able to fully integrate both my practices was also very important. I now have access to all patient information regardless of my location. Patients can bounce back and forth seamlessly. The task feature is critical to our in office communications, along with making sure I don't forget to write or read a report! Cons It was a bit of trial and error and learning as a team to decide where to put which notes. Lots of different places to put various notes and on paper it all went in the same box! Reason for choosing Optosys When considering the software available on the market, it was clear that Optosys had improved and was continuing to improve. The ability to customize the templates was the selling point for me. I have been very happy with all the updates and improvements made since doing the switch 7 years ago. I also picked Optosys because of the in office training provided when doing the switch. This was an important option for me and was critical to successfully implementing the program.

Slow to make much needed improvements to increase large clinic efficiencies. Expensive for what you get. Pros Moderately user friendly system. Great customer service, always willing to help. Always willing to listen to ideas. Cons Not as up to date as other software applications. Slow to take much needed action on some ideas. Behind on PHIA, SMS applications, more bugs than one would expect for age of software - lots of interim updates fixing these bugs, inventory - lack of understanding of large clinic procedures/needs. Example: Setting up QR scanners without a complete process to help with the full scope of inventory Alternatives considered [Visual-Eyes](https://www.capterra.com/p/127866/Visual-Eyes/) Reason for choosing Optosys Met with Optosys last and they said "yes" to many of our needs. It was right around this time that Visual-Eyes made big changes to their software but we were unaware of the customizable options, and choose Optosys. A big part of the decision was also that we are an OSI member and the idea of having everything integrated made sense. Switched from [Genie AI](https://www.capterra.com/p/10003121/Genie-AI/) Genie was no longer being supported. Couldn't extract data for marketing purposes.

Pros Online booking. Patient communication features. Cons Inventory management is inefficient. The exam module could be more keyboard and less mouse friendly. The scheduler works great for single location groups. For multiple locations, it is cumbersome. Reason for choosing Optosys n/a Review Source PC Patricia C. Owner Optometrist Hospital & Health Care Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Why Aren't you using Optosys?" December 7, 2022 5.0 Extremely positive people to work with who understand our business needs and respond to requests quickly. Pros AS much as it was difficult at the start to design the templates, the customizability of the platform makes it superior to other software systems. Cons We have had some glitches with connectivity but Optosys is very responsive and gets us up and running quickly. Reason for choosing Optosys It seemed to be more what we were looking for. Anyone who was using it seemed to be very happy with it. Review Source MB Melissa B.

This software has the potential to be great, but there are a lot of things that need to change. Customer support is difficult to get a hold of. We work with \[SENSITIVE CONTENT\] to sort through a lot of our issues, and he is a dream. Working with anyone else is non-existent, or has been quite negative. Better training manuals and training in general is required. Pros I like being able to direct bill and like the online catalogue system for frames, lenses and contact lenses. Cons While the online booking system is nice to have, it goes down often. Working on changing pricing for contact lenses is quite difficult and time consuming. We have had too many occasions where the intake forms do not send to patients. Do not like labelling on reports. Do not like how reports do not include OHIP patients on them. I have also had several issues with billing. Forms need to be adjusted and created more easily. Also do not like how when you print a chart note it just prints what is on the screen (including all of the boxes) - this uses way too much ink and is unnecessary Reason for choosing Optosys Appearance, direct billing and online catalog system Review Source JR Joel R. Optometrist Medical Practice Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Optosys for excellence" December 8, 2022 5.0 Pros Easy to bill most insurances, easy to order product and it continues to get better. Cons An ability to integrate a fax system to fax referral directly from a patients file. Reason for choosing Optosys Price point and capabilities Review Source Response from Optometric Services December 22, 2022 Thank you so much for taking the time to share your valuable feedback. We are happy that you're enjoying using our software. Looking forward to continuing working with you! MV McKenzie V.

ALTERNATIVELY the communication forum. Cons I despise that i can accidentally book a patient for 12 am and not be able to access it from the main screens Review Source PS Patrick S. Owner Health, Wellness and Fitness Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Optometrist" January 26, 2023 5.0 Very happy Pros Game changer, increase efficiency and facilitate training for new staff Cons No major weakness, but a normal learning curve for all the modules that is easy for someone familiar with Microsoft product Review Source RH Rebecca H. Optometrist Medical Practice Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Should have done it sooner!" December 7, 2022 5.0 It has been a great experience even though we did it from a distance (Re COVID) Pros Having everything in one place and automated has made our lives so much easier! Cons Putting Optosys all together in the beginning was a big learning curve. It did make us really learn the program though! Review Source YL Yves L.

J'aime bien toute la flexibilité du logiciel, surtout pour le module examen. Cons Aimerais utiliser le nuage au lieu d'un serveur. Je sais qu'ils travaillent la dessus. Reason for choosing Optosys Le meilleur. J'ai quelques optométristes qui ont travailler avec d'autres logiciel avant de se joindre à nous et tous préfère Optosys Review Source Carol M.

Cons l'icône de recherche est très petit. Il faut savoir où il est pour le trouver! Review Source EW Earl W.

Pros Comprehensive software for all optometric needs Cons Takes time to set everything up to work efficiently.
