Great functions for the price

Pros

  • If there is an opening within 2 days they send out text messages to get the openings filled
  • Love how you can set the time frame for all reminders, cell, text and emails to be sent out
  • The templets that we can use to send out to patients about using year end benefits or to notify the patients of a promotion are great - I love how we can change the wording to work for us

Cons

  • The overall cost for the basic is great, it is all the extras that make it more expensive - we have a few locations so it is not horrible and we use what we pay for to the fullest.
  • The only real down fall is the time lapse - it pulls every 30 minutes from the server, I wish it was more real time as sometimes we have an opening that has already been filled and someone still gets a notification of an opening
  • We can only text so many words to a patient in response or trying to send a notice - which isn't that big of a downfall.

Return on Investment

  • Keeping our schedule is a huge success
  • Keeping our patients informed of our office specifics is another area of success
  • Love how easy it is to respond to a patient regarding a text
