### "Too Simple"

May 28, 2018

3.0

Pros

System is fine for if you need a basic EHR for little cost. The name says it all - EHR has "canned" responses so user never has to manually develop their own content.

Cons

Not ideal for individualized care. Program is very basic and therefore not recommended for intensive programs, or programs that require specific clinical information.

### "great program to use and it is easy"

December 16, 2016

5.0

The customer representatives and technicians are very helpful and knowledgeable. It is easy to navigate and works better than the other program I use!

Pros

It is easy to navigate and get back to main screen from anywhere in the program

Cons

Changing documents and diagnosis are a little clustered and it not very user-friendly if one is new to this type of program

### "User Friendly Mental Health EMR "

February 1, 2012

4.0

It not only gets the job done it has enhanced my practice. Wouldn't trade it!

Pros

I've been using ICANotes for almost 5 years. I have a (mostly) solo LTC and ALF practice. I am able to work on site or do progress notes later in my office. ICANotes creates a narrative note that is readable and thorough. I get lots of compliments on my documentation and I feel more confident in my coding. Customer service is excellent. It is easily searchable.

Cons

Needs an internet/wifi connection which can be ify in rural areas.

### "Just what I was looking for"

February 1, 2012

5.0

I would definitely recommend this software.

Pros

I have been searching for a behavioral health EMR system for over a year. Once I came across ICANotes, I couldn't believe how easy it was to use. I am now spending less time on progress notes and intake assessments which allows me more time to spend seeing clients. I would definitely recommend ICANotes to any clinician looking to go paperless.

Cons

I would like to have the ability to send appointment reminders via email, text messaging, and voicemail.

### "It has been extremely frustrating to use this product."

May 17, 2016

1.0

Pros

I can't say I like anything best about the product, it would meet our needs if they could increase the speed of the program and make the Schedule portion usable.

Cons

The schedule is non-functioning, useless. The support team is available but not knowledgeable about their product and problems that arise from it.

### "Don't use"

March 15, 2016

2.0

Pro's: Best feature are the drop-down menus. Tabs are very helpful; easily prefill your notes. You can make custom buttons. Con's: The calendar view is not friendly and does not adjust with the scroll button. Customer service is useless! Information is inconsistent from rep-rep. They have NO idea of how to transfer your records if you need to stop or transfer their service. They seemed clueless of how to transfer data. They were unable to transfer records from a group practice without having to recreate the entire record. Waste of time. I do not recommend.

### "PSC 4 ICAnotes"

December 14, 2016

5.0

I have reviewed this system for 1 year prior to purchasing. The ease and functionality of the electronic health system is helpful for new employees. Also, the availability to create customized areas that are suited to your company's needs is superb! Last but not least, the customer service is amazing! I can make one call and do not have to be on hold for several minutes and you can also live chat for better assistance. When or if you send an email to a developer or ICAnotes staff, the response time is immediate!

### ""Best Progress Notes""

July 13, 2013

5.0

We had our re-certification evaluation by the state. The agent said they are the "best progress notes he has ever seen". We told him we credit ICANotes. He said to give some credits to ourselves. The program is very user friendly for the therapists. Our office manager has had some difficulties with billing but the company was supportive of her inquiries and assisted her with the glitches.

January 9, 2017

ICANotes is a great system and it's user-friendly. Although it's set up for mental health and not for an autism clinic, occasionally this I've found it easy to add functions. occasionally this is a great system. The support team is amazing I chat with them online and they've resolved any issues I've come across.

I have been using this EMR for about a year and overall I am pleased. It's not inexpensive but is reasonably priced compared to similar programs. It has reduced time to complete notes. It is nicely customized for psychiatric notes.
