EHR 24/7 by Office Ally vs. TherapyNotes

Smaller doctor or dental offices would be fine using Office Ally for patient visits and appointments; it's easy to use and learn, and I'm able to handle most needs with it. For a larger practice, there are better, more technologically advanced software products that would offer more streamlined and professional statements, schedules, and accounting needs.

TherapyNotes is ideal for any size practice with single or multiple providers/clinicians. Its scheduling, billing, EHR, and online portal are great for English speakers but not at all user-friendly to Spanish speakers. It is definitely affordable for a start-up practice and fees associated with merchant services are low compared to competitors.

• Free, secure telehealth platform.

• There needs to be a way to print patient visit summaries for a date range vs printing one summary for each appointment, one at a time.
• It would be helpful if the top row of the calendar, showing doctors/practitioners names, would remain on the screen when scrolling to the end of the day. Appointments get scheduled under the wrong doctor at times because the names disappear and columns get confused.
• There should be a way to view/print/download what has been paid, per patient, to the office in one place vs searching for payments under the Accounting Tab and payments tracked under Patient visits.

• Spanish documents are not available. There is not a way to use Spanish documents that can be filled out online like the English documents; instead, the practice must upload a PDF into the Library, share with client via portal and have then print, fill out manually, and upload for organization review and approval.
• Sync feature from Client History Form is inconsistent. It may work with some clients but not with all. Sometimes the user has to completely log out and log back in in order to obtain partially parsed information to use in a treatment plan or psychotherapy note.

I am a creature of habit and other than some areas (Spanish user-friendliness), TherapyNotes fits the bill for what I'm looking for in an EHR

It's just so simple to use. It's made for therapists, so you don't have to bend or twist it into place to meet your needs

I haven't had to call too many times to get help with Office Ally but when I have had to call, I haven't always had the best customer service. It seems that I am bugging the person I reach when I call for technical support because I'm usually reminded that there are videos to watch for technical support help. On the flip side, there have been times that I called for help and was treated how you assume you'll be treated when you call for help - with grace, dignity, professionalism, and respect.

It is easy to do, can be done overnight, and requires no special skill set or guidance from TherapyNotes

I used to use Best Notes. Best Notes was difficult to navigate and very inflexible. We used it in the early time of EHR/EMR, so that the software was not very useful. When I changed to Office Ally, we are so delighted to change it because again it is easily to navigate the software. There is minimum of learning curve than other software.

To some degree, I think you pick TherapyNotes or SimplePractice much the same way people choose Toyota over Honda - It's a style preference. There are definitely differences between the two, but they function the same in many ways. Other EHRs that I've used were for medical practices and hospitals. They weren't developed with behavioral health in mind, at least not in the initial development

• Saves time specifically with entering notes which means I can spend more time seeing clients.
• Does not have the ability to enter dual caregivers. Challenging for parents who are divorced and signatures are required from both parents. It is not effective to have two separate portals for the same child.
