Cons

Selecting the time of day for a treatment/medication.

October 26, 2023

5.0

I have only had great experiences, I love the little messages of "updates", the program overall is great.

Pros

I love the easy view of treatment sheets, user friendly, they are always willing to accept feedback.

Cons

None at this time. I only have compliments.

We were having too many errors and mistakes due to how the program ran, was not ideal for our large hospital.

### "super intuitive and easy to manage patients care "

October 26, 2023

5.0

Pros

easy to make changes to treatment plans and track parameters

Cons

that there is not a smart phone application for instinct. I have to be logged into my work computer and cannot make quick changes to treatment plans or monitor my patients while I am on the move.

Thank you for taking the time to review Instinct and for your positive feedback! The phone application is on our product team's radar and we hope to have updates for you soon :) For now, you can use Instinct on any device that has a web browser (we recommend Google Chrome as it is most compatible with Instinct), so you could use Instinct on your mobile device or a tablet. If you would like to get this setup, I’d be happy to walk you through how to do this! Feel free to reach out to support@instinct.vet and we can get you going! Best, DJ

### "Instinct Newbie"

October 26, 2023

5.0

Pros

I like the treatment tab and being able to complete everything within there and it being sent to the invoice. The SOAP notes side bar being open/up while I'm still able to search throughout the chart/other tabs still. The sidebar with patient, client info etc is really useful.

Cons

I would love if their was an option to generate a 'call back' of sorts for fecal samples or blood sent out where within instinct we can click on a tab and view all the patients and from there if there was a link to check results and send it all within instinct without having to leave the app. Having a color for upcoming vaccines along with the color change for past due vaccines so there isn't anything missed because they tend to blending when they're all black.

### "Love Instinct EMR"

October 26, 2023

5.0

Pros

Ease of use, intuitive, flexible in how to put in data (from many different screens)

Cons

There are only a few things that are a little clunky and they are likely inconsequential, one of which is that the emailed documents are not titled, so there is no way to see exactly what was sent.

### "Instinct is great!"

January 14, 2023

5.0

Instinct is great. It is efficient, constantly evolving based on feed back, and obviously designed by a veterinary professional to help other veterinary professionals

Pros

Instinct makes it very easy to track patient progress and communicate quick changes to treatment plans with the entire treatment team.

Cons

There is a bit of a learning curve with the software

### "To Instinct or not?"

January 18, 2023

5.0

Pros

We love not having paper flow sheets. It has also made communication between departments easier. We all can look at instinct and see what has been changed, treatments due and how the patient is doing overall. From our CSR to our doctors we are all able to use instinct for various reasons.

Cons

Not having Instinct in the hospital with us during on boarding due to covid was not easy. We including instinct did make it work. Going from writing up orders and flow sheets and now having to understand how to translate that into a computer system was not easy. Once we got there we would not go back.

I like the clean layout and design. Its not cluttered and busy with colors and I appreciate the tidy layout and ease of use.

Cons

Sometimes Instinct can be fussy and displays incorrect or not updated info (such as when processing a payment it may look like the payment was not taken as it reverts to the payment screen).

### "The amazing Instinct"

January 16, 2023

5.0

I have used Instinct for many years at two different hospitals now. Both hospitals offer different features that both support the functions that happen within the hospitals. I really enjoy this software.

Pros

I like how easy it is to navigate. See what special notes each patient has and needs. Easy to see when treatments are due and how to track them.

Cons

The only thing I can think of wold be not logging us out so quickly.

### "Best practice software!"

January 16, 2022

5.0

Pros

There are so many things to appreciate about this software. From the beginning Instice staff has been very helpful with setting up and implemmenting this into our practice. The company QUICKLY responds to suggestions and customer service needs. It is very easy to use and offers many tools to make sure you are spending more time with you clients and patients, rather than on the computer or doing paperwork. I would recommend this over and over again. And the Plumb's guide is an incredible bonus.

Cons

I cannot think of any complaints. Anything we felt could be better and suggested so, or needed to find a better way to use use the program they always have an answer or helpful information

This is the easiest to use and has the best visual interface. Everyone that sees it for the first time loves it.
