Aaniie Care vs. Practice Fusion

I am not able to think of a scenario where Smartcare Software is less appropriate. All the scenarios that we use it for are appropriate and well-suited. We are very pleased with its user-friendliness, functionality and versatility and it allows us to function better and more efficiently than we would without it

The best scenario is a small non-profit clinic who needs a great EMR but cannot afford one like EPIC. I might also recommend this to colleagues who are starting a small business because I think PF would be a good, easy, and more affordable to get up and running. I think this EMR makes less sense in the setting of large academic institutions who need lots of easily manipulable data and a huge amount of support.

In my opinion and experience, they have a lack of customization so you have to constantly create hacks to make their system work for your practice.

We always get a return call within the time stated. There are many available topics on the forum and it is often easy to find the issue you are seeking more information on. When we have tried the live chat feature we have been satisfied with the timeliness and response.

There are a lot of software programs out there that do the same or similar things, but we chose Smartcare Software because it was good value for money. All the functionality it offers address the elements of our business that allow us to be more efficient. It is user friendly and the support is prompt and knowledgeable

NextGen is hard to use as far as medical records. Practice Fusion is user friendly. There is a great knowledge base for questions asked. Practice Fusion takes all the guess work out of the day.
