    athenaOne is well suited to financial reporting as it allows a high degree of flexibility to create custom reporting and is very responsive when looking into claims data at a high level of detail. I'm able to create different custom reporting groups and departments that allows me to record financial results in a way that matches our objectives.

    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.

    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.

    Usability
    athenahealth
    Overall, athenaOne is customizable to support our reporting objectives. I'm able to define my own departments and groupings to report in a way that is needed by our org. However, it can struggle with large queries of data. If I need a report that has a lot of historical data, the system can crash while running the report.

    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.

    I think Power Diary is relatively intuitive however of late, over development of certain features with insufficient user experience testing, and, in my opinion, no desire to resolve the concerns of customers shows me that Power Diary's business model is not customer centric, but self centric and most businesses with this ethos fail in time.

    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.

    This is the first time I have used this type of practice management system. I used the Specialist Homelessness Information Platform (SHIP) in my previous role, which made it easier for me to transition to using Power Diary.
