### "Impressed!"

January 15, 2023

5.0

Pros

Very easy to use, live chat feature is wonderful. Access from anywhere. Integration with other companies (Idexx for example).

Cons

A time clock would be helpful to track employee hours. Onsite training during launch would be helpful. Still learning the software.

Reason for choosing Shepherd

Really great demo, user friendly, super impressed with features. This was my first demo, everything after this demo was just not comparable to Shepherd.

### "Life Changing!!"

March 8, 2018

5.0

Pros

The only software that functions the way our team thinks and works! There is NO training needed, our entire team has been shocked at the ease of use and how intuitive it is. It's optimized for mobile devices (REALLY) and when we administer treatments as technicians the medical record and invoice are done at the same time with no separate set up or module linking.

### "This software is amazing! It's so easy and let's you spend more time taking care of your patients!"

March 14, 2018

5.0

Pros

It's simple, and helps make our job easier. It allows us to spend more time with our patients and less messing with a complicated software system.

Cons

I really don't think there is anything... it would be amazing if Idexx would partner with shepherd eventually so uploading your lab and rads would be easier. But overall it's amazing!

### "Tech's Dream!"

March 14, 2018

5.0

Honestly hard to complete this category! This software has done amazing things for our hospital! Charts don't have to be the focus of your day...patients can!

Pros

Incredibly easy to use! Requires almost no training! Medical record and invoice created at once means less missed charges! Less time spent charting, and more time spent on patient care!

### "Great Cloud Based Vet Practice Software!"

October 11, 2019

5.0

Great, its easy to setup and use. Transferring data from other software had no issues. Would recommend to anyone looking for a simple, cost effective cloud based software for their practice.

Pros

Cost, easy of use, and training. The cost is affordable for any size practice. The user interface is straight forward and simple to understand. Workflow is great, and easy between modules. Training is fast for new employees. Recommended cost effective!

Cons

No cons! Reporting could be done a little better, and hopefully will improve with updates. Customization of user interface could be done.

### "Very user friendly, intuitive, a great addition to any hospital."

March 26, 2018

5.0

This software has great reminders in place as you move thru the medical record so that no areas of the record are left incomplete. The treatment portion allows charges to easily be put in and is efficient when creating a treatment plan for patients.

Pros

The dashboard for patients allows easy access to move between records, reminders are set in place for additional check points when completing records and putting in charges, great customer support, very easy to use.

Cons

None at this time but would love to see this used in many more hospital to help eliminate missed charges and it is very easy for any new or experienced staff member to use

### "Excellent"

March 14, 2018

5.0

Pros

Easy access to all data is amazing. The remote access is simple and user-friendly. I also love that I can search for the patient by name. I like that I can easily see the findings in the exams. I also like that charges are entered so efficiently.

Cons

My main challenge has been learning all the great things I can easily add to discharges. As a relief vet, I am sad that I don't get to use the software more frequently.

It is ease of use for everyone within the clinic, from the receptionist to the technicians and doctors.

### "Pleasant and Efficient "

March 14, 2018

5.0

Pros

It is easy to use and well organized. I love that the SOAP is so clearly laid out. Images and all diagnostic work is easy to upload and easy to find.

Cons

Sometimes the way it prints out for the rDVM's is not the way it looks on the screen originally and it can be confusing to read.
