Was quite expensive and was not simplistic at the time Pros Some staff were very nice. Other were difficult and it seemed like a bother Cons Cost and wanted me to pay a large sum for my own data upon switching Review source Non-incentivized review: any software user can leave a review for any product listed on our site.

Clinic Manager Health, Wellness and Fitness ### "Customer Service Bar None!" 4.0 Overall Rating 4.0 4.0 Ease of Use 2.0 2.0 Features 4.0 4.0 Customer Service 4.0 4.0 Likelihood to Recommend 7/10 May 20, 2024 The customer service is bar none. If you have an issue, you put in a ticket and will receive a call. They will call until the ticket is closed. They are friendly and knowledgeable and never make you feel like an inconvenience. Quite frankly, I felt like we were friends. We were with them for so long that it became a bit "messy" due to employees that came and went and setting up things with too many variables resulted in needing a clean and fresh start. It was difficult to train new employees due to the complexity of the software. It almost went to deep and so many layers that for the day to day front desk and check out became a LOT. Overall great people, and I believe in their software development team and are always coming up with ways to make it better. Pros 1\. CUSTOMER SERVICE. 2. The ability to scan directly into pt EMR 3. The ability to make and print deposit slips 4. Text reminders - patient communication pkg was easy 5. End of Day process 6. The appearance and personalization on the schedule Cons 1\. Too many variable options for running reports. 2. Doesn't integrate with a lot of other platforms/not many choices for POS company, online scheduling, clearing houses. 3. The registration lay out is choppy, when talking with ins there is a lot of flipping back and forth/Date of birth on one page, insurance on a couple of different pages. 4. It is not cloud based, the software has to be downloaded, therefor you cant see the schedule or work from anything but a PC that they have downloaded the software on. 5. The cost. Anything outside of the normal day to day is an extra monthly charge. The base price is a little higher and then your adding on for any extra services. An additional Dr fee is $85 per month where as most others are covered with at least 2 providers. Reasons for choosing PracticeStudio I was not here to choose them. 30 years we have now gone to a different software.

Pros Lots of bells and whistles. Longevity of the company. Cons Ease of use. Complicated. Ledger looks like like DOS system. No good packages. Very expensive for the value. Support is ok - very slow process becuase the system is very complicated. Will not do refund. You have to pay a lot of money up front for implementation/training/setup. Lots of work to setup. If you cancel, you have to send a letter by mail (cannot cancel by email). Once they receive it, they will cancel and you have 30 more days and have to pay for a system you are not using. Longevity of the company, but they have really modified their system to be very technical.

PS Pamela S.

The scheduling system is great, the note taking is good as well. Getting reports for specific things is a challenge in the scheduling system. The customer service is pretty good- You send in a ticket and wait for someone to get back to you, which is good if there is an issue that can wait. Not good if it cannot wait. It's easy for them to take over a single computer that is having issues and getting it resolved quickly. Pros We have more than 1 location and it's easy to switch between them. We can schedule, Do patient notes, run reports, integrate with other software such as texting software, good training videos. Cons We have many different providers doing very different things and this software isn't very friendly for that.

We are planning on staying with them for now, but only on the hope that some of these issues will be dealt with. Pros PracticeStudio is one of only a few EHR systems out there that can handle a multi-disciplinary healthcare practice like ours. It offers billing and storage of medical records, as well as documents and other important parts of treatment. Cons Many of the functions are not intuitive and the database reports do not work. It is also difficult to maintain organization given the number of capabilities and intricacies of them all. We are also often frustrated by the customer support and feel the team members can be rude and dismissive of our issues.

Lab Manager Medical Practice ### "Bad Excuse for EMR" 3.0 Overall Rating 3.0 3.0 Ease of Use 2.0 2.0 Features 2.0 2.0 Customer Service 2.0 2.0 Likelihood to Recommend 4/10 January 23, 2019 It was a EMR that was in place when I went to work for this company. It is a program that needs lots of work. It is not a menu driven EMR, and requires a lot of typing. A true EMR should be geared to work for your practice. This is not the one! Pros The only thing with this program that was good, is you could say you were electronic. Cons This is a poor example of a truely functionable EMR. You must type alot in this software. It is not menu driven which leaves the door open for alot of human typographical errors. Support is not good. Review source Non-incentivized review: any software user can leave a review for any product listed on our site. All submitted reviews are subject to our verification process prior to publication. Response from Vendor February 12, 2019 We're very sorry to hear that Tracie had a negative experience with the software. To clarify what we can, our system \*is\* designed to be 'menu driven', meaning it takes you through the planned flow of documentation with pre-set options made available and is designed to minimize keyboard input wherever possible. With that said, our software is also fully customizable and that planned flow can be changed however the clinic sees fit. In this case, it sounds as though the principles of the clinic elected to primarily dictate or keyboard rather than modifying those pre-built screens (or 'menus') to allow for more guided entry that fit their specific needs. We are also sorry to hear that Tracie's experience with our support team was not positive. That is not typical of what we hear regarding our team. Our client relationship is our highest priority, with our support and training team typically scoring very highly both internally and through external sources such as Capterra. SS Sarah S. Office Manager Hospital & Health Care ### "Lots of features - can customize everything" 3.0 Overall Rating 3.0 3.0 Ease of Use 3.0 3.0 Features 5.0 5.0 Customer Service 0.0 0.0 Likelihood to Recommend 5/10 October 4, 2018 Pros Our favorite feature of this system is the fact that you can customize almost anything. Also, they do pay attention to suggestions that clients give them and we have seen some of our suggestions get added to the software on the updates. Cons It is a lot of detailed information, but you are definitely paying for it. It is the most expensive program we have used to run our practice and for a small business, sometimes you have to choose the basic but affordable option instead of all the shiny bells and whistles.

Very strong in meaningful use implementation. We have used this product for 10+ years. Pros Techical support, easily accessible and well-produced training videos, meaningful use assistance, working with the same technical support staff for 10+ years. You cannot find that type of consistency in staff anywhere these days. Cons Pricey for our small office.

Excellent claims management and reporting. The customer support is always available , knowledgeable, and friendly.

SH Susan H.

The thing I respect most about Micro Four is their ability to shepherd Practice Studio through constantly changing technical and regulatory environments. However, it's not enough that the product be up to date in both of these areas. We need help USING the software in the most effective way to achieve excellent patient care and incentives through programs such as Meaningful Use and PQRS. This is where Practice Studio's EXCELLENT customer service comes in. Their technical staff is the most experienced and accessible that I have come across in the use of any software product. I feel it says a lot about an organization when you are able to speak with the some of the same support staff over a period of more than ten years!!! Our office switched software products briefly a few years back and boy did we appreciate then what Practice Studio offers in terms of technical support! We headed back to Practice Studio within a few months. Practice Studio is the best of both worlds: established with a great track record and technical support but always on the edge of what is coming next. I highly recommend this product.
