Cons Extra $10 for Telehealth(not a real biggie though) Review Source SK Sally K. Registered Dietitian Mental Health Care Used the software for: I used a free trial ### "Review of Simple Practice from a Registered Dietitian" October 23, 2018 4.0 Pros It has templates specific for dietitians. It has built in credit card/payment processing. It has appointment reminders and online scheduling capabilities. Cons Honestly I haven't come across any cons of using the software. Review Source Response from SimplePractice November 6, 2018 Sally, we're glad that you gave SimplePractice a 9/10 for use by dietitians. Thanks for your positive review! - Gillian from SimplePractice EG Erik G. Humanistic Psychotherapist Used the software for: ### "Software that organizes one's professional practice...with support" July 30, 2015 5.0 I did a great deal of research on various offerings and landed with Simple Practice after my trial period with them. The software requires a smaller learning curve than some others I sampled, and has the most important elements for me to make note taking, billing, and appointment scheduling straightforward. I would recommend taking the Webinars to help navigate the software initially. Whenever I have had a question, I sent it via e-mail and was helped in short time with a very friendly and supportive response. Moreover, it strikes me that this group is adaptive by listening to customer needs and updating the software accordingly. I appreciate this flexibility. Review Source RB Rhonda B. LCSW Individual & Family Services Used the software for: I used a free trial ### "Review based on free trial " December 3, 2019 4.0 I almost didn’t choose to continue on to a paid account but the telehealth sold me for now. I’m going to try it for a couple months and see if I like it enough to continue. Pros The telehealth option, which I have not used yet but plan to. Cons It’s overwhelming to learn and I wish you could just easily call customer service and get support when you need it. I don’t prefer online chatting and find it cumbersome and not efficient. You can schedule a phone call but that’s not easy for me with my busy schedule. Reason for choosing SimplePractice N/A Review Source SS Sheila S. LMFT Mental Health Care Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Simple practice for therapist private practice " August 22, 2018 5.0 Pros The ease of use. It’s 100% set up for therapists. They have thought of everything! Cons It was challenging at first to tell when client’s credit cards were charged. Review Source Response from SimplePractice August 31, 2018 Hi Sheila, we're so glad that you find SimplePractice an easy-to-use platform that has everything you need for therapist private practice!

LMFT Mental Health Care Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Most user friendly and intuitive practice software I have ever used." November 30, 2018 5.0 Pros Had all the functionality you expect from a practice software but what sets SimplePractice apart from the others is how easy and user friendly the software is. I have used all of the other practice softwares and they don't even compare. Very pleased with the product and how easy they make it to send documents to clients instead of having to manually email them. Cons Only con is price but it's in line with the other platforms. Review Source Response from SimplePractice December 7, 2018 Hi Jeremy, Thanks so much for your kind words, we are so happy to hear that you have found SimplePractice to be the most easy to use practice software.

LMHC Used the software for: ### "Painless transition for a new clinician in PP" May 16, 2016 4.0 I have really felt at ease since starting to use Simple Practice. I was hesitant to jump into electronic records because I knew it would be difficult to learn. I have tried other free systems, but quickly got frustrated. I love how my clients have access to electronic documents and self-scheduling in the portal. I would like to see the ability to have client's complete this info in office for those who do not have email access at home, but overall, I have been able to work around this easily. I am truly impressed and excited to see new features being added regularly. Review Source Response from SimplePractice June 9, 2016 Awesome to hear!

Sports Performance Dietitian Health, Wellness and Fitness Used the software for: I used a free trial ### "Highly recommend!" February 24, 2020 4.0 Pros Easy to use and very professional looking. I love all of the extra features. Cons I may have missed this but I wish there was a tutorial Review Source DTM Dr T M. Director Medical Practice Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "My first impression" October 31, 2018 4.0 I met once for a "free" video consult session and that was pretty much a waste of time. That session was time limited and the young lady serving me required that I repeatedly clarify my questions. I was not impressed by her ability to listen well. Or perhaps she was sleepy. I am very impressed that when I submit an email question, the turnaround is pretty fast. Thank you! Pros It's wonderful to be able to offer what my patients need from my website. Cons The inability to customize. There are several ways this plays out.

Manager Mental Health Care Used the software for: I used a free trial ### "Opinion on software" September 6, 2018 4.0 So far so good, will write another review when I am more srasoned and using it for a while. Pros Easy to use. Cheap credit card provessing than square. Cons Insurance Billing system charges too much. Review Source Response from SimplePractice October 29, 2018 Ruby, it's great to see that you find SimplePractice easy to use, and that Stripe's credit card processing works for you. We're proud to support the work that you do! - Gillian from SimplePractice SF Sara F. Therapist Used the software for: ### "Great way to start of in the EMR world" July 28, 2015 4.0 I demoed and researched every reputable EMR out there for a part-time private practitioner. Simple Practice offered me a modern format with a high ease of use. The responsiveness of the team to add features and update the product at market speed impressed me. I worked for years in other EMRs at hospitals that took months, years, or even decades to make simple ease of use and modern formatting changes. I do hope for more portal customization options, specifically specifying who needs to sign what so I can stay compliant with state laws. Currently the forms allow only one signer, even when in our state, Washington, both client and provider must sign disclosures. Review Source RF Rodney F. Intern Mental Health Care Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "SimplePractice is Superb" January 17, 2019 5.0 All the paper is used now is gone, I am so thankful for this. Pros the reminders of what I need to enter in for clients. Cons Not being able to upload videos of sessions to be stored Review Source Response from SimplePractice January 25, 2019 Hi Rodney, Thanks so much for taking the time to tell us about your superb experience. I'm happy to hear you've been able to ditch your paper records and wish you all the best! -Marlina from SimplePractice EW Erin W. Hospital & Health Care Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Very relieved therapist!" July 14, 2016 5.0 I was recommended SimplePractice by a colleague, and I am so glad to be using it. I spend less time keeping track of things and I am more organized than ever. It is a wonderful experience and I chose it over other software for the ease of use. Pros Easy formatting that made sense to me. Cons Some features take a moment or two to figure out.

" May 29, 2016 4.0 I really love using Simple Practice. I've tried several other scheduling softwares and this is by far the best. It's easy to use and clients seem to find the online portal easy to use as well. I do feel like it's geared more toward adult clients than child clients, and there's no way to integrate multiple clinicians in the same practice, but other than that I love it. Review Source Response from SimplePractice June 6, 2016 Hi Kristi! We're glad to have you on board. We actually released SimplePractice for groups last week! You can add multiple clinicians now! Check it out by heading to your settings and viewing your Team Members page. Just make sure you're on the Monthly Professional Plan and you'll be good to go! IS Isaac S. Psychotherapist Mental Health Care Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Simplicity At It’s Finest" November 26, 2018 5.0 Pros The name truly fits. This is the best EMR software I have used - once I acclimated to the system, I felt so organized and now have peace of mind. Cons I honestly cannot think of anything I do not like about this software thus far. Review Source Response from SimplePractice November 30, 2018 Hi Isaac, Thanks so much for leaving us a positive review, we're so grateful to have you! -Marlina from SimplePractice BW Brittany W. MSW, LCSW Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Excited to learn more of the features as my practice grows" November 8, 2017 5.0 Pros I love all the built in features for writing notes and billing is a breeze. I also appreciate how easy it is to watch a video or read an article to answer questions as they come up. Cons I wish there was a fee option for budding practicitioners. I know that this tool will be increasingly useful as my practice grows, but it's quite a bit of money to spend when you only have a few clients, and I've considered cancelling my subscription simply for that reason. Also, it seems most useful for folks who take insurance. Review Source Response from SimplePractice November 16, 2017 Hi Brittany - We're thrilled to hear that billing with SimplePractice is a breeze and that you are enjoying the features within the Help Center. Thanks for taking the time to share your experience! LA Lucy A. LPC Mental Health Care Used the software for: I used a free trial ### "Use of Simplepractice" October 7, 2019 4.0 Pros Still getting to know it. Easy to use when completing client profiles. Cons Not sure yet. Need to understand billing insurance more. Review Source DD Dani D. Used the software for: ### "Why didn't I do this sooner?!" June 30, 2014 5.0 I was doing my own client reminder calls and it quickly felt like I was spending too much time just calling/emailing clients. Finally, I asked my therapist what he uses and he recommended SimplePractice. This product is so easy to use! The one (very small) complaint I have about reminder calls is the inability to schedule them myself (I would prefer they go out 24 hours prior or, in the case of my monthly clients, maybe twice before the appointment. I haven't had a chance to use the billing to its full power but it seems intuitive and has been useful for keeping track of my private pay clients. Thanks for an excellent product at an affordable price! Review Source AC Andrea C. Marriage and Family Therapist Associate Used the software for: ### "This has been an integrating experience! " January 29, 2016 4.0 Running a private practice can have many moving parts, especially when you are working with children and families. With simple practice I am able to upload documents and allow parents access to a client portal to update ever changing demographic information. My only set back thus far is becoming savvy with billing and invoices, (a very new feature). I would like to see a more efficient way to modify billing amounts for missed sessions, remote consults and such. Thank you Simple Practice, mostly for giving me back so much of my time with an effective an intuitive tool. Sincerely, Andrea M.

Licensed Psychologist Hospital & Health Care Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Licensed Psychologist " July 20, 2016 5.0 i have only had the software for one week so not yet able to give much of an opinion. So far I'm pleased Pros Easy to use Cons Inability to modify given treatment plan or when creating templates not having drop downs Review Source Response from SimplePractice August 26, 2016 Hey Jeff, thanks for joining us here at SimplePractice.
