June 22, 2021

5.0

Pros

Yes this product is easy to use and is easy to see multiple pets on one file.

Cons

I would like to be able to search for client using their address and a secondary phone number. Currently we can only search the main phone number listed on the file.

### "The Great Avimark"

May 25, 2020

5.0

Pros

Avimark software is one of the best! It makes the most sense to me ( I know that sounds weird, but other software is just down right confusing). It is organized in a way that makes it easy to find everything. Another plus is all the short cuts! I just wish we had a cheat code book for the short cuts. Schedules are easy to set and read. Overall view and organization is easy to review records.

Cons

Overall, Avimark is pretty great. However, sometimes it crashes. And when is crashes, it is nothing small. But, it does all get fixed; and usually quickly.

### "Avimark review"

June 4, 2020

Love how easy is to print reports and find mistakes in accounting.

Pros

Avimark is very user friendly. Easy to learn and and adjust to. Good costumer support.

Cons

I wish I had more training on using the software. I am discovering different ways to use still.,after years of having avimark on board. I am sure that I am still doing some things the hard way.

### "Long Time Avimark User"

June 8, 2020

5.0

Avimark has performed adequately for our practice but at this point, we are looking for a program that better supports our need for a hospital census to improve patient flow and care, as well as simplified paperless charting.

Pros

We installed this program in 2009. The primary use of the program initially was for the calendar and for client invoicing. These parts of the program adequately offered what we needed at that time.

Cons

As our practice has evolved over the years, we struggled with information search, the inventory portion, paperless records, hospital and boarding treatments, and the whiteboard.

### "Avimark Review"

June 15, 2021

5.0

Pros

Avimark is pretty straight forward. Ease of use for new employees. There is a help section and customer support is phenomenal.

Cons

There could be an easier way to update appointments to include an automatic time limit per appointment type.

### "Avi review "

May 28, 2020

4.0

Still good but can be very frustrating unless get to right support techs for help.

Pros

Ease of use, long standing in veterinary industry

Cons

Since on windows platform many issues arrise with windows updates and avi support does not know how to fix. Need to get to techs above general support to resolve issues and this can be a challenge.

### "Thoughts on AVImark"

June 2, 2020

4.0

Pros

The searching capabilities are very nice. Its nice to see the initials of who puts in everything into history.

Cons

The look overall is very dated and drab. I wish there was a home screen instead of always having a patient's history open. I would prefer more options for scheduling, such as set time allotments for specific types of appointments - for example if an appt is selected as a surgery type it would automatically set it to 60 min (but can be adjusted too). The whiteboard is not user friendly and many appointments do not leave the whiteboard after being invoiced and posted out.

### "Overall user friendly practice management software"

November 17, 2020

4.0

I had previously used Cornerstone, which seemed very complicated. When I came to this hospital and learned Avimark, it was very easy to pick up. Overall, quite user friendly and navigation is "intuitive" as I call it. Does seem a little glitchy, and restoring backups, etc. can take quite some time... especially if you have a lot of attachments.

Pros

Easy to use, very "intuitive", can navigate easily with mouse or keyboard shortcuts

Cons

Glitchy. Will often get errors that seem related to spellcheck files and what not. Is also VERY particular with printer setup... if there is something off there, the whole software can act up.

### "Steer your business with software"

June 2, 2020

4.0

We are satisfied with Avimark and feel that it is comparable to other veterinary software.

Pros

Fairly easy to learn. Simple to use with experience. Provides real time feedback on production, product use, etc.

Cons

Some reporting is less than stellar and can be complicated to run some reports.

Have been using for other 10 years - still very satisfied

Fairly ease to learn and use for myself and staff

### "Easy to use"

January 4, 2020

4.0

Tracking medications and refills are easy, maintaining medical records and reminders are done simply.

Pros

When I first started using AVImark I had never encountered the software before. It was super user friendly and did not take long to get the hang of it.

Cons

I can't say that there was anything I disliked. The ease of use was huge, it perhaps seems daunting, but mastery of its use was swift.

### "Avimark Review"

November 30, 2020

1.0

We have had it for several years and I think it has served us well.

Pros

It does not take too long to learn. It is a pretty good software. We do not even come close to using all the functions of Avimark.

Cons

In some places you hit return and it kicks you out of what you are doing. You should be able to buy a user's manual or a help manual. This would be really helpful for reports, how to run the report and what is detailed in the report. The support is expensive and I have found some of the customer support people's knowledge of the product varies.

### "We love Avimark"

June 18, 2021

5.0

Very good.

Pros

Easy to train new staff. Ease of use. Lots of modules and didn't have to do all of them at once. Could start small and grow.

Cons

Inventory, especially food, is rarely accurate. Frustrating.

### "Needs to be web based."

January 23, 2018

3.0

Pros

Easy to use and great features. It has been a great program for our clinic, but there are some things we do not like as well.

Cons

It is not web based so trying to integrate Ipads and Iphones is not possible. We have to go through about extra steps when making an appointment because it is not web based our doctor can't just log in to see his appointments. He is mostly mobile so it is a huge problem. We do have a sidekick but is useless to update appointments and changes to schedule when he is in the field. We are now making appointments in avimark then have to also put appointment on a online calendar, very inconvenient. I really hope that they do an update of some kind to be able to offer a web based software.

### "AVImark "

June 9, 2020

4.0

It does help with work flow, especially the more we use AVImark over hand written charts. Overall, we are satisfied with the product.

Pros

Does allow integrations with other technology. Most functions are straight forward and easy to work with/change.

Cons

Some changes that need to be made within the software are complicated and not very straight forward, but the customer support line is very helpful for assistance. We are trying to go paperless and I feel that for the most part we are starting from scratch with adding problems/diagnoses/rule-outs to the computer.

### "User Friendly"

June 10, 2021

4.0

It has been easy to use but does have limitations and the reminder system is ridiculously confusing and difficult to manage.

Pros

Very easy to train people to use as it is very user friendly

Cons

Only can store ONE expiration date on drugs, and this yields false expiry dates when we have multiple bottles of meds. Reminder configurations

### "Add a couple of these features"

November 17, 2020

5.0

Pros

1\. I would like to be able to email estimates easier once made in program 2. I would like a feature to log in a summary of a phone convo For most part I am amazed by the software, my clinic still does not use many numerous features. If I had more time to dedicate to training I would be able to use more of the features. My dad purchased software over 20 years a go when it first came out. Dr. MLT

Cons

I wish you could unpost things. I wish it would be able to go online too and I could access from anywhere using internet.

### "User Friendly"

November 17, 2020

4.0

Pros

Avimark is user friendly! I like the ability to view the patient's record easily, I can narrow the record down into specific catergories (ie. RXs, Labs, Diet, Vaccines, etc). The attachment feature is also one of the things I really like about Avimark.

Cons

I used Impromed prior to Avimark and prefer the reporting, estimate creating (don't like how estimates use a variance vs. +/-, high or low end feature, don't like how estimates look once printed, difficult to "see" the variances) , adding inventory/service to system.

### "Using an older software version"

May 28, 2020

4.0

Their customer support is very good!

Pros

It is easy to teach my staff how to use the software even if they do not have much computer experience.

Cons

Updates for the software are cumbersome. The reason I use an older version and stopped updating is because the ability to back up the software from a workstation onto a thumbdrive was eliminated in favor of having to pay for Avimark's Data Vault service for backups. The thumbdrive is MUCH cheaper, quick, easy, & almost free!

Reason for choosing Covetrus Avimark

It was the software in use when I purchased the clinic.

### "Great system for vet clinics."

December 3, 2020

4.0

I love running reports in order to analyze data to help with business decisions effecting the practice.

Pros

I like that you are able to run reports and export to MS Excel.

Cons

I would love if you were able to email attachments directly from Avimark to clients or third party providers to help with efficiency and help with continuity of care for each patient.
