### "Covetrus Pulse is the easiest system to learn and the fastest to maintain patient records"

September 25, 2023

5.0

Excellent. I continue to be pleased and very impressed.

Pros

It is very easy to learn, endlessly customizable for individual doctors, and allows the use of Rx written and filled medications.

Cons

Nothing, I have used a number of software systems over the years and this one is the most versatile.

### "Bulverde Animal Hospital Review"

April 5, 2021

3.0

Easy to start using but awful when you need to use anything beyond the surface level. Customer service used to be great but now it’s terrible and not even worth using because my trained staff know more about the software than they do. The graphics keep changing making the software almost unusable. The changes to the graphics make the product worse and because of all the graphic changes and the poor customer service, changing software has been discussed with my leadership.

Pros

It’s easy to train people to use the software

Cons

Boarding, inventory, and customer service are terrible. The constant changing of the graphics make the product almost unusable.

### "Six months in"

March 31, 2023

4.0

Pros

Web based, as result can easily work from home.

Cons

When we switched we were assured that it was fully compatable with our abacus in house lab system . Apparently they have not integrated as of yet. Also I made the mistake assuming that when they said they had bar code integration that it would include receiving , which it does not . After installing two wireless scanners we were shocked that it was a one way system -invoicing only, severely limiting its utility.

### "EVetPractice is a well rounded practice management tool."

January 27, 2022

4.0

It has streamlined my business, taking it from paper to software based. I also love that I can work form anywhere!

Pros

I like the different options for writing up exams, the boarding feature (which we use at our hospital), and the scheduler which utilizes columns and different colors to help make it easy to look at.

Cons

There is a lot of clicking. Somethings need multiple clicks to get from one place to the next, even within one record.

Reason for choosing Covetrus Pulse

Cloud based, cost, boarding function, ease of use

### "Vet"

June 18, 2021

4.0

Mostly positive, only in recent months has it become less positive with the slow downs and pieces of it not working.

Pros

It's easy to use, good value for the money, and user friendly.

Cons

For the past year the software is extremely slow, lags and has been down multiple times. The Covetrus orders is often down and not working as well.

Reason for choosing Covetrus Pulse

Cloud based, user friendly and customizable.

### "Pulse!"

September 21, 2023

5.0

Great!

Pros

I love that it is easy to integrate so many third party features. Now I can register microchips seamlessly as well as text owners back with Rapport integration. It also makes it easier to manage lab orders and conduct patient care follow ups.

Cons

The only thing I don't like is there is no "ghost" feature and I cannot see easily who wrote a comm or deleted something.

### "Evet practice review"

June 16, 2021

4.0

It’s ok. I like that it’s paperless.

Pros

It’s paperless. It’s pretty easy to use. I like the time clock.

Cons

I HATE IT WHEN THE UPDATES JUST MIVE BUTTONS AROUND. For Gods sake stop doing that, we as technicians have a hard enough job as it is and when we get to know where everything is on the screen, you “update” it and move everything around and we can’t find what we are looking for. It doesn’t help us at all in our day to day use of this, and you guys just don’t seem to care.

### "Recommending eVetPractice"

June 15, 2021

4.0

Overall, I like using eVetPractice. It is an affordable cloud based veterinary software. This software was a big improvement for my practice in 2018. I intend to continue using eVetPractice in my mobile small animal veterinary practice.

Pros

It is affordable as a monthly subscription. The exam forms are very useful.

Cons

Some days the software runs very slowly. As it is cloud based, if I cannot reach the internet from my mobile veterinary practice, I cannot reach the software at all.

Reason for choosing Covetrus Pulse

I could not afford the other softwares.

September 12, 2023

Pros

I really like the program as a whole. Easy to use and understand after getting in a rhythm.

Cons

I wish there was a way to just transfer a pet to another client without having to "merge".

### "Review of covetrus "

September 13, 2023

5.0

Pros

I really like the fact I can add history with ease and pull up histories with no trouble of finding them. The other feature I like is a I can see which tech / doctor was on a case

Cons

I feel like there should be a feature where you can auto input drugs into charges from the anesthesia monitoring form. When you check off giving a pre med or medication, it should automatically put in in the quick invoicing.

### "Bessemer Equine 2"

March 19, 2026

4.0

Pros

We do like how accessible the program is out in the field. We are a mobile practice, so we are more often than not stallside when needing to pull up the patient's history.

Cons

The patient search function is not useful. We could type in the first 3-5 letters of a horse's name and it won't show the horse on the list of patients to choose from. When we are in a patient's file, click quick invoicing, it kicks us to the top of the owners list of horses instead of bringing us right to the patient's file we were just in. That gets frustrating.

September 18, 2023

We have had an excellent experience with Covetrus and look forward to years to come growing with this program.

Pros

The flow of the program, the looks of the program, the ease of the program. There is alot about the program that we have enjoyed. The customer support has been very helpful.

Cons

There have been a few bumps in the road - but with customer support we have been able to get things fixed easily

### "Great Software"

November 30, 2020

5.0

Have been happy with it and look forward to what the future holds.

Pros

We have an older generation of clients and employees, so the first couple months were a little give and take. There's simply so much more you can do with this product, especially integrating it with a reminder system. Many use PetDesk, but we've been happy with rapport in addition to evet 99% of the time.

Cons

Our main con is the updates. If small animal based, I don't see them causing much issue. We are largely production animal based, so we had a separate company when we used infinity prior to evet to keep track of rebates. With evet, this same company that processes the rebates has to update their algorithms every 6-12 months to get and accurate rebate sales. It's usually simple coding changes.

Reason for choosing Covetrus Pulse

Ezyvet was much more robust and debatably a better product. With that being said, with it being more robust and our older generation of employees, we feared that the learning curve would be too much.

### "Please fix reminders!!!!!"

April 5, 2021

4.0

I would be happier with the program if the reminders were addressed. I have complained numerous times to technical support over the past year and it STILL has not been addressed. Very disappointing

Pros

Ease of use. I like updates. Okay, now that I have tried to submit this form 4 times and it won't let me, ,y impressions are becoming more negative.

Cons

Reminders. The program really falls short when it comes to reminders. In a word, its primative. I need a reminder system that can remind people of different KINDs of appointments; surgery vs wellness. I have had several complaints especially from new puppy owners that they get as many as six reminders (one for each vaccine and the exam).

Reason for choosing Covetrus Pulse

Vetter had too many clicks and their customer service was awful; scheduled a demo; they cancelled 20 min prior to appointment then when they DID give me the demo, they guy rushed through it leaving me with the impression that he had been hassled.

June 18, 2021

5.0

Pros

We use eVer for a dog grooming business and it has made scheduling appointments, sending reminders, tracking client needs and sending info to our clients a breeze. This program has made our office run smoothly!!!

Cons

I struggle with getting documents imported for use in mass communications. I spend a lot of time trying to find the docs that I’ve imported so that I can add them to an outgoing email. The help desk is always there to help me though so I appreciate that.

### "Excellent cloud-based software!"

September 12, 2019

5.0

We were a start-up practice in 2015 and did many trials of various cloud-based softwares. I had previously used Cornerstone and can say I am so happy we picked eVetPractice. It really does everything we need. We just finished our 4th year open and eVet has grown with us and met all our needs.

Pros

I love being able to access our EMRs from anywhere. It allows me to work out of the office. It is also very intuitive to use and has many helpful integrations (QuickBooks, reference labs, etc)

Cons

I have few complaints about the software. It has less report options than other programs I have used like Cornerstone, but the ones available have been all I have needed.

Evet Practice is very easy to use. After the initial scare of just plain change was over, everyone was very impressed with how easy it is overall. Reports are easy to run as well.

Overall I am glad I made the change from Cornerstone!

Pros

Paperless! Easy to toggle around! Very simple to send records to the ER Clinic or referral center! The packages are so helpful! The customer support could not be better and they are always trying to be more user friendly. Easy to log in from home or cell phone!!

Cons

It runs slow sometimes and on certain browsers, it can duplicate some items. When you try to delete an invoice item, sometimes it deletes two! It's getting better all the time!
