### "Great Software! little issues"

September 8, 2021

5.0

Overall, great experience, highly recommend this software to everyone who prescribes exercises. It has helped me to give comprehensive plans to all my clients with easy to read and follow instructions. The different print options and portal also helped me reach a much more diverse clientele. The ability to put your logo and customize it so easily is wonderful. All my clients have commented on how they appreciate larger print, easy to follow directions and clear pictures/videos. If you are a trainer, R. Kin, Physio, Doctor, or any other professional whom gives exercise prescriptions I highly highly recommend this, you will not regret it!

Pros

\- Pictures and videos as well as the ability to add your own -Can customize exercise prescription easily and put your logo and credentials -Can customize instructions, even change pre filled in ones, rearrange exercises easily, create "stacks" and save them for later -Love that you can create templates and that the software even has a portal so you can easily send it to clients and they have their own "key" -Customizable exercise tracker -Can make it large font (good for people with vision impairment and older adults) -Various print out options depending on your clients needs -Exercise categories: Pediatrics, geriatric, amputees, orthopedic, etc.

Cons

\-The names of some exercises, trying to find certain exercises is difficult. Once you find the exercise you are looking for, best to save it to your favorites right away! -Inability to copy uploaded or personalized exercises. Would be much better if there was an option to copy or insert an exercise you created instead of having to add it every time you want to use it

### "Favourite Exercise Program"

September 8, 2021

5.0

Simpleset is easy to use and I use it several times a day. I have been using this program as my primary program for the better part of the last 10 years and the team at Simpleset has made improvements that address even the small things that were inconvenient about it.

Pros

I like that it is customizable and that there are ways to share folders with other practitioners in the clinic, although I would like to get to know this feature better.

Cons

I need to spend time with the program to figure out how to easily share exercise programs and files with my fellow colleagues.

Reason for choosing SimpleSet

I still use embodia occasionally for my pelvic health practice. I also enjoy their partnerships for education within the program. However, I continue to use Simpleset 90% of the times.

### "This product meets my every need"

September 19, 2021

5.0

Patients tell me that they love the personalization I give them with the use of this program. I consider it a vital part of my practice. SimplseSet has gone from being a nice add-on to my practice 15 years ago, to a vital part of it, without which I could not operate.

Pros

Searching for exercises is very intuitive. The option to save your favourites is very helpful. The option to upload your own photos and videos is excellent. I can take photos of a patient during their exercise, upload it to their program, and have it all printed, or emailed to them before their appointments is done.

Cons

When I upload photos, sometimes the size is a bit small when printed off, and sometimes they are oversized. It seems that it would be helpful to ensure that they are all a standard size.

Switched from

[Wibbi](https://www.capterra.com/p/219523/Wibbi/)

SimpleSet had better functionality years ago. PhysioTec may have improved by now, but I have so much customization built into SimpleSet that it makes no sense to switch.

### "SimpleSet Review"

September 8, 2021

4.0

Great experience, I've seen simpleset grow since 2014 and it's been tremendously helpful now that I work in a clinical setting.

Pros

Intuitive design, specifically the design builder and bulk parameter adjustment. Overall simpleset is extremely user friendly. The EMR feature is awesome for speedy charting as well.

Cons

Limited to clinical settings. I would like to have the option to prescribe not just exercises through dividers but perhaps link exercises to a specific divider/folder where the client/patient can open the divider and be able to see the exercises for that specific day (as an example). The database is great for clinic settings but expanding it to include S&C type movements would be a huge improvement. Currently physiotech has a larger database then simpleset which sometimes is a bit frustrating because they are nowhere near as user friendly as simpleset. The only issues I've experienced is the command-c when copying & pasting exercises & dividers across clients folders. It would be neat to expand the keyboard shortcuts aspect for those of use that are more inclined to use the keyboard instead of the mouse.

### "Excellent Rehabilitation tool "

October 12, 2021

5.0

I used to draw stick figures for my patients' exercise programs. They were neither beautiful nor very clear. They were also time consuming. I can now send my patient exercises in a matter of minutes. It gets even easier once their profile is already set up.

Pros

Simple set is very easy to use on both the physical therapist's side and the patient's side. I find it great that you can customize exercises and create exercise sets. This has saved me so much time in putting together and exercise program for my patients. I started using simple set when it first came out. How it has evolved is amazing. It has become so easy to use on any of my devices whether it be PC or an apple phone. My patients then receive their exercises and can save or print it with as much detail as they want. Lastly, this software is affordable to single practitioners. Other programs were cost prohibitive. Now, it wouldn't matter if the other programs decreased their prices, I have no reason to switch from SimpleSet.

Cons

At times, my patients got confused on how to log in. Any other quirky issues have been resolved quickly.

### "simple set review"

September 8, 2021

3.0

I like simple set overall. My organization was reluctant to purchase software for me and I feel like this gives me the best bang for our buck. I use it daily and it is an essential tool in my work.

Pros

I like that it is fairly easy to search exercises. I like the EMR feature that allows me to add the exercise descriptions to my chart notes. I like the ability to modify the descriptions of each exercise and can add my own exercises. I like the ability to add dividers between exercises and include an optional cover page

Cons

I wish the search feature was a bit more refined; sometimes I search an exercise and get way too much that are not relevant. I wish it was easy to select or deselect exercises in the designer in stead of having to individually click to Unselect them. I wish there were more variety of exercises shown with variations to accommodate different needs ( ie: obesity, adaptations for various conditions). It would be helpful to have the ability to save cover letters to use again when doing a more generic letter. I wish there were more videos to accompany exercises- especially for the more complex concepts. I compared this software to physiotec and really liked the details in their exercise videos and descriptions

### "Review By Exercise Physiologist"

September 8, 2021

5.0

Really good!

Pros

Super quick to setup, therefore no real need to integrate with existing software - can be used stand alone. Great variety of exercises. 'Simple' interface to be able to easily drag, drop and customise programs. Ability to easily add new exercises in that aren't already part of the library. Addition of outcome measures has been good but I haven't had the chance to fully utilise that feature yet.

Cons

Patients unable to input their data and progress to keep EP/Physio up to date - adding this feature would also increase compliance or at least allow the treater to put things in place to address compliance.

Reason for choosing SimpleSet

As above.

### "Bon rapport qualité/prix"

September 22, 2021

4.0

Pros

\- C'est facile de trouver un exercice grâce aux mots clés. - Possibilité d'ajouter nos propres images. - Rapport qualité/prix excellent, surtout pour un travailleur autonome. - Merci de ne pas vendre le produit avec 10 000 options de gestion de dossier de clients dont on a souvent pas besoin , mais qui ferait augmenter le prix mensuel.

Cons

\- La version française est épouvantable... - Si par erreur on appui sur le "x" d'une image (dans la banque d'exercices), il n'est pas possible de la récupérer! La touche "undo" ne fonctionne pas. - Le mot de passe pour le client (est-ce vraiment nécessaire?) - Souriez sur vos photos! :) - Le logiciel n'est pas adapté pour faire des programmes d'entrainement pour le gym (superset, drop set,). Je dois souvent aller chercher des images sur le net pour prescrire des exos que l'on fait plus typiquement au gym.

### "Sask PT review"

September 12, 2021

5.0

I am a loyal customer and will continue to use SimpleSet for my consulting. I am comfortable with it and have designed hundreds of programs with it.

Pros

The exercises are comprehensive and they have all the progressions, from simple mat exercises to complex multisegmental movements and resistance. The functional movement systems correctives are there too, which has been invaluable in putting together corrective programs.

Cons

It's improved now, but there were problems with searching the database; i.e. I would type in "A row band" and that exercise would not come up, or would be buried in the second page of search results; despite the exercise in your software being called, "A row band"!

September 7, 2021

Great!

Pros

SimpleSet has so many exercises to choose from and it is easy to change the instructions of an existing exercise or upload photos and videos to create your own. Yoga, kettlebells, pediatric, perinatal, exercises specific for amputees, the list is endless!

Cons

I would like to be able to upload PDFs of non-exercise instructions for my clients, without having to type it all in. There also used to be an app version of SimpleSet that I would love to see again!

### "Amazing Product, Highly Recommended ! "

September 20, 2021

5.0

My overall experience had been very very good. Highly recommended

Pros

Simple Set is very simple to use and it provided full justice with its name. I use it daily and as a physiotherapist, I consider simple set as my bread and butter. My patients love the images and the description of the exercises. I have been using this program for about 3 years from now and never had an issue. Its not a purchase, its an investment !

Cons

earlier I had to spend little more time navigating through the program, but now that I know, its on my finger tips. A new user might have to spare some time, but I believe its with every new software.

Cons

I don't find anything difficult about the program. Any time I have had a problem, the customer service people have been able to show me how to do exactly what I want to do.

Fantastic. Responsive to concerns. Great Canadian company. Helps they are PTs too!

Pros

Pros

The simpleset software is fairly easy to use. I like the many options and variety of exercises available and the ability to customize the exercises. I also like that the simpleset program is accessible to our team and is shareable and edits can be made by each individual clinician.

Cons

There should be a "save as" option when updating exercise programs instead of having to copy and create a new exercise set each time. I believe this was available in the previous version.

### "Great tool, a few tweaks would be great"

September 7, 2021

4.0

We use SimpleSet to create exercises for clients to do at home when they are discharged from rehab. I am able to create an exercise program (HEP), then continuously update it as the client progresses. Saving previous clients' HEPs helps to streamline the process when I create new HEPs. SimpleSet has definitely made my practice more efficient.

Pros

It is easy to choose exercises. I love being able to save exercises or groups of exercises. There are tons of exercises to choose from, and more are being added all the time.

Cons

The product caters to orthopedic exercises, and many of my clients have a neurological diagnosis, thus treatment/exercises may need more support (another person or a surface), and are more pattern based (not simple stretch/strength). It can be hard to find exactly the right picture that I want when I want the client to do an exercise with a slight variant in position.

It’s very easy to use and provides comprehensive programming. Easy for charting and client use. My favourite feature is that you can easily add your own exercises and build upon for programs. It eventually is completely customized to my practice. Great!

Cons

Sometimes the search isn’t as accurate as I’d like/as easy to find exercises that I may call something different. Overall an easy adjustment however.
