Cloud 9 Software vs. SimplePractice

Charting is easy. Clicking on all that tabs at each appointment. That makes it a lot quicker when charting. I would like to see a new tab to view X-rays. When I have to scroll through all the photos to view when we took the last x-rays, it’s a lot because we take photos at every appointment.

I think it's a good choice for solo providers who bill insurance. If you have employees or are self-pay, go elsewhere, in my opinion

• I wish the check out process could be a little more simplified.
• I feel I do a lot more clicking with the mouse with opening and closing screens.
• When clicking on a patient in the schedule I wish it showed who I'm calling to verify and appointment without opening the patients chart.

• Would like more usability on the app.

Easy to use!

Easy peasy! Easy to navigate and start using from day one!

I have spoken to several support members along the way, and everyone is super helpful and exited to find a solution. Everyone is courtesy and patient. I had a problem that I could not figure out on my own and just with my description, I was given clear step by step instructions to get it solved!

I have not had to contact support which is nice. If I have a question, I am typically able to find the answer within the help section.

Better training/trainors

The non-server version of Ortho2 we were already using would have cost a significant amount to merge our three separate office databases. Cloud 9 already had parameters set to be able to do this. All of our documents and images transferred over with just minor issues- like where would our online forms go that Cloud 9 did not have an automatic home for. Cloud 9, on the other hand, does not have nifty image layout options, their letter editor is a cranky non-Word program I do not like, and creating custom reports is definitely easier in Ortho2.

Also Kalix, Practice Better, Practice Q (formerly Intake Q), Healthie, Jane, etc. I'm hoping to switch to Practice Q soon.
