Covetrus AVImark vs. Demandforce vs. ER Express

AVImark works for us. Yes, there are times when we wish it could do this or do that, but overall, it does exactly what we need it to. It is easy to use and easy to teach to people with no knowledge of any vet software and it is pretty user-friendly as well.

We use Demandforce to reach out to 'old' customers. If they have not had an invoice generated in X number of days/weeks/months/years, we can create a custom campaign via email/text to reach out to them and attempt to re-engage with those customers to generate new 'existing business' or entirely new leads for our Sales team to run.

• Charting and chart interface are relatively user friendly
• Information searches are thorough and effective
• Scheduling calendar is easy to use and differentiate between types of appointments and doctors

Incentivized

• Aesthetics has been updated in last few months for organization and is easier to see: colors, grid lines on front page, and font style.
• Allowing our office to include specific items in reminder appointment emails allows personalization to make confirming appointments easier.
• Allowing patients to write reviews allows us to know what the office is doing well and what we can improve on.

Incentivized

• Emails don't always send.
• Sometimes can load very slowly.
• Inventory over multi sites is never right.

Incentivized

• Flexibility in Design!
• Overall Look & Feel of Templates (look at what Squarespace is doing, it is possible!)
• Usability (it's a bit clunky)

We are constantly being contacted by comparable organizations. If Mindbody Online integrated a feature like Demandforce, we'd move over there to keep everything in one platform.

I find the program to be very user-friendly. This is software that is easy to use and understand. There are a number of shortcut keys that make it even easier to use. When teaching AVImark to new employees with zero veterinary experience, they pick up how to use AVImark quickly.

AVImark is not a monthly subscription, so costs are overall cheaper. Also, exit barriers are high for this type of product. It would be difficult to retrain an entire hospital on a new system and work through the transition period.

I do not have any alternative products to compare this service too. It was in place when I came aboard this company and I have no say in its continuation or replacement. As from what I can gather, there are many alternatives to this platform, but Demandforce is the only one I am aware of that runs in your system tray and is passively ran in conjunction with your accounting database.

• We moved to a different credit card company and are saving $40K dollars in fees from what World Pay was charging us

• It's taken a lot of the reporting and guesswork out of the equation. That has saved us a lot of money.
