AdvancedPM, by AdvancedMD vs. Power Diary

It would be well suited for an initial user. If you are starting a practice and have nothing in place, it might be great. However, if you are a current EMR user of a different platform and have more than a hundred patients; don’t waste your time. This is a hands-off company that, in my opinion, will do nothing to support your efforts. We have a practice of 11,000 patients and would have had to hire 2 FTE’s to print all the patient data and upload it individually.

The most important thing is that I feel confident that my client records are kept secure and private, and that Power Diary has strict security and privacy measures in place
and compliance with relevant legislative and regulatory requirements. Data is
encrypted, and two factor authentication is required to access the system. I can't think of any scenarios where it would be less appropriate to use.

• They provide access to their underlying tables via Open Database Connection (ODBC). This streamlines business intelligence processes greatly.
• The "canned"/"stock" business intelligence tool (Advanced Insight) is very useful.
• Our dedicated customer support representative (Breah Teed) has exceeded our expectations.

Incentivized

• Templates are amazing and easy to use
• Emails and SMS directly to clients
• File management is good

• Adding and Deleting provider columns complicated.
• Would have loved to have one point of contact at all times and have that person answer on the third ring (see, this is me really reaching--because as far as my job functions were concerned, the product was absolutely fantastic. I have no complaints).
• Working electronic insurance error reports in the system was a nightmare.

Incentivized

• When I schedule supervision/meetings etc. in the calendar, it only shows my practice addresses and I have not been able to work out how to add the meeting address. I just add it to the notes section.
• I worked as a standby counsellor for a corporate event and was required to support multiple students if necessary. I had to invoice the corporation and add them as a client. PD is more suited to adding individual clients. I would be great to improve this.

Overall, I think ADP AdvancedMD is very user friendly and constantly improves as new releases come out.

I've only reached out a couple of times and after being bounced around a few times I simply asked for our internal team to look into the particular question I had. I believe they had some turnover at the time but my experience wasn't great.

I have been through implementation of ADP AdvancedMD at other companies and it went smoothly

ADP AMD is much easier to learn and navigate than most all of the systems I have worked with, including Greenway and Centricity. The only thing I liked better in Centricity was the ability to run more customized reports, but overall, I would choose AMD any day over those two.

The ones I have used do not seem to be in the list

Incentivized

• We are paying over 5K for absolutely nothing.
• We believe this company does not concern itself with the end-user.
• We identified a large lack of ethics in the organization.

• Peace of mind that client records are secure, and help is available from PD when required.
• Easy to manage client records.
• I feel confident that as my practice grows, PD system will make it easy for me to manage my client load and keep up to date with everything.
