Use of PetsApp within Veterinary Clinic
Extremely positive experience both in using the app and with any dealings with the wider support team. We have always had the one main point of contact which has been invaluable as you do not speak to a different person each time you contact the team. Our Customer Success Manager is enthusiastic and knowledge, and has been there supporting us from day one.
PROSPetsApp is user friendly and was relatively easy to set up in a way which best suited our clinic. The staff were readily available and provided guidance and support from the very beginning, supplying how to videos etc which were easy to follow. One of the most important features has been the integration with the software already used in the clinic, thus enabling us to link out client database and set up reminders, chats, campaigns etc with ease. What I have loved most about PetsApp is it has allowed our clients to access the clinic via chats, messages and enabling them to make their own appointments using the app at a time that is convenient to them. The app itself, for the client is free to download and use, it is well set out and is simple for clients to use, even those with limited knowledge or use of IT. The initial set up was completed with minimal effort at our end, most of the work was carried out behind the scenes by the PetsApp team. After the initial set up and training, we (the clinic) have a free reign on how we set up campaigns/promotions/reminders/appointment requests. There are no restrictions on what we ourselves can do which in my experience with other such services, this function has been quite restricted and generic. For clients to sign up, the process has been simplified by production of a QR code they can scan onto their phones and download the app. We have also been provided with posters and leaflets with such information, which can be used in reception and waiting areas. Another of my favourite functions is that of the wellness plan with the app. Clients them selves are able to sign up to the plan, entering their banking details etc for the DD, meaning we in the clinic no longer need to have access to this information. Support is always available either by using the help section or sending a message f you are unable to find the topic for help. You are also able to schedule one to one video chats with your support manager at a time which suits you. Finally, there have been no glitches or downtime with the app. This in itself is vital. Any issues or concerns are dealt with without delay and you are kept up to date with new developments.
CONSHonestly nothing. Dare I say I wish I had been the one who had the idea for the app
Reason for choosing PetsApp
We chose PetsApp because it is everything we wanted, and more, as a means to communicate effectively with our clients in addition to be compatible with software already used and cost effectiveness
Reasons for switching to PetsApp
We wanted to have the most efficient and cost effective product

Game Changing
5 stars, two thumbs up! This app was made for veterinarians to interact (with ease) with pet owners. This has been such a blessing!
PROSIt is so easy to use! I have saved several templates, all my team members can monitor requests, I have created SOPs so they know the action flow. It has increased revenue and clients love it!
CONSI would like there to be a way to have two “initial” messages that can be time/day customized. So one to use during business hours and one to use for after hours.
Reason for choosing PetsApp
There were not any other platforms that have this functionality, there are several that have some features but not a true all-in-one service like PetsApp
Reasons for switching to PetsApp
This app streamlined all my DIY Telehealth methods into one single platform that my entire team can utilize and can do secure invoicing!

Thank you for your kind review Shawna. We are constantly improving the features available on PetsApp based on client feedback. We will look into yours and develop a plan asap. Have a wonderful week!

A game changer for the veterinary profession!
By Jove they've been endless! Payment and regulation, marketing and internal campaigns! Nurse appreciation, organisation of food/consult arranging.... the list goes on! In fact I mentioned them all in my podcast with you.
PROSGenuinely a video software has revolutionised the practice! my favourite feature is being able to send our clients a little video from their pets stay. It brings them so much peace of mind and also provides an excellent level of client service. We have completed a large number of consultations including nurse consults and even physiotherapy consults.
CONSLeast? Gosh what a question! I think issues with releases would have to be the only small small thing, however it is all part of the creation process. Every feature we have requested has been implemented and every improvement has been discussed. Such as forward thinking and innovative company!
Reason for choosing PetsApp
We noticed petsapp for its capabilities to our clients at once! We saw them cutting the ice in the field and realised the improvements it would make for our clients.

PetsApp in our veterinary clinic
I have found the PetsApp team willing to go above and beyond in looking for ways to help our clinic. No problem is too difficult - any challenge is an opportunity. It is really refreshing to do business with a team who are so invested in helping find solutions for other businesses.
PROSPetsApp is easy to use and the vast majority of our clients really love the way it allows them to integrate with our team. It is great for team members to be able to have a conversation with clients in a non-time pressured way. Most of all however, I love that the PetsApp team don’t stand still - they are always looking to the next innovation and how they can improve their product to make it even more useful for veterinary teams!
CONSI would love PetsApp to integrate with our practice management system though I appreciate this can be challenging.
Reason for choosing PetsApp
The ease of use and flexibility of the PetsApp platform convinced me that it would be the most useful for our business.
Vendor Response
Hi Diane, Thanks for your kind review of PetsApp. We are integrating with new practice management systems every day. If you email support@petsapp.com with your request, I am sure the team will update you accordingly.

Fabulous!
Capturing payments, reduces call flow.
PROSPetsApp is user friendly, convenient and efficient. It makes communication easier between the client and the practice, it can be used for payments, prescription requests, booking appointments. The app reduces the number of incoming calls making our response more efficient and improves client service. An ideal tool for post operative care including sharing information, photographs and videos.
CONSIt would be great it linked directly to the practice management system. It is sometimes difficult to find a patient.

Thanks for your review Nicola. We are constantly adding PMS integrations to PetsApp and there's some exciting news coming out soon. Please, reach out to your CS pack member and they can update you about all the exciting happenings.

Origin Vets Clinic highly recommend PetsApp
Our business has really benefited from this app and our clients love it too. It is super easy to use. Sending videos and photos is very easy too and much quicker than email. Our nurses do husbandry and dietary calls for our exotic clients and this gives another insight to how the pet is being kept.
PROSThis is an excellent user friendly app. Our clients feel more engaged with the communications with our clinic. It is very easy to set up documents to send clients eg for husbandry or diet information. Being able to end photos and videos of their pet whilst in the hospital brings comfort to the clients too .
CONSNothing to report of dislike. We are very happy with the product

Petsapp usage for veterinary purposes
I would highly recommened petsapp to any veterinary practice. It is simple to use and allows for another type of communication that owners can use on the go.
PROSI like the ease of communication between the veterinary practice and owners. It is easy to send payments and get up to date information from owners about their pets. It is a little more laid back which I think owners really like and the fact they can have it as an app on their phone makes it even better.
CONSSometimes it can be a little more trickier for the older generation to get used to and some are unable to use it at home.

Very useful software
Allowed us to perform video consults during the peak of the pandemic, and still use them (albeit less frequently) now as client preference. Allows us to easily take payments and receive prescription requests / general questions which frees up the busy phone lines somewhat.
PROSEasy to take payments, receive videos and pictures from clients, and they are able to send us messages at any time.
CONSWhen first launched, petsapp support was easy to contact and very quick to help. Assume it is due to the growing of the business, but the support is a lot more delayed now.
Vendor Response
Hi Emma, Thanks for your kind review. We are aware of a slight delay in support responses recently and have put in measures that will ensure your requests are handled much more efficiently.

We have had a very positive experience with PetsApp, with very open lines of communication with the team and all of these interactions have been productive.
PROSThe app is set up in a very intuitive way for the team and clients. The development team have been great at taking feedback and improving the app with regular updates. The app has been very stable with very few glitches. It has given the team the ability to manage their day more easily.
CONSWe are still working towards integrating with our practice software but this delay has been on their side rather than PetsApp.

A must have for Veterinary Practice !
Overall, we have found as a practice it reduces the number of phonecalls and hold times to the practice. It helps us communicate easily with owners.
PROSPetsapp makes communication with clients so much easier, from messaging to video calls. Clients love the convenience, and makes them feel like the service they receive is tailored to their pet. Being able to send photos to clients is great, so they know their pet is ok when they are coming around from surgery etc.
CONSAs a relatively new app, there are still things that could be added! But they are working hard to get these things sorted, such as appointment booking being made directly onto the computer system e.g. Animana.
Vendor Response
Hi Victoria, Thank you for your kinds review. We are constantly adding new partners to our integration programme. You'll be happy to hear that Animana is now available!

PROSDiscrete communication with clients, ability to send payment requests and receive payments. Great alternative to the telephone. Great for younger members of the team who are used to communicating in this way. Nice to look at, easy to use and easy to feedback for future development.
CONSThe search facility is a little clunky leaving me unsure sometimes if all the pet options have been listed when I've put in a name to search for.

Petsapp review
It is good to help work flow - as long as we have the staff available, it frees up our phone lines and keeps the non-urgent inquiries on the app to answer when we are free.
PROSI think clients love the easiness of the app, they can send us a message knowing we will get back to them within a couple hours (during working hours) and they don;t have to wait on the phone. I like the app to send documents such as insurance claims updates and invoices.
CONSWe have two branches and with our experience it may be easier to have one branch to avoid any payment confusion when doing the end of day cashing up.

Clinical Review from Donaldson's Vets - First week trial (Basic features)
The System is very clean and simple to use, the ease of access is a great selling point for ourselves and our clients. We have been able to to sort out many queries and problems from the clients that are trailing the software with us and having no time constraints to answer the clients has meant we haven't had to ignore the phones during this. The hope and goal is to bring our call volume down so the main calls we get are emergencies or things that need to be handled either more personably by phone or in person. We look forward to being able to take payments as I believe this will cut down on the stress that clients can have about paying over the phone or having to come into the branch.
CONSMy main frustration with the software is I wish we could link Merlin and Pets App together for booking appointments or ordering medication as well as access the records for our clients pets.

Thanks for your review Mike. Have a puurrrfect day!

Remote vets best friend
It’s easier to get clients to pay sometimes than after a consult. I also can talk to clients for longer than when I have lots of people to see back to back in a consult room. This seemed to lead to a higher degree of satisfaction as clients didn’t feel hurried even though I was an unfamiliar face.
PROSThat it acts as a barrier to emotional offloading and reduces compassion fatigue. I found it easier to keep to the problem than in consults when clients kept adding extra problems on during the exam. Clients seem to be better at time keeping when they don’t have traffic and parking to contend with or trying to catch an animal like a cat to put in a cat box. It’s also good to assess animals in their relaxed state in their environment and not to have false positives like increased breathing rates. It’s also good for cystitis aggravated by stress in cats or people isolating from covid or people with mobility issues like pensionners or disabled.
CONSSometimes I struggled to connect to the clients. It’s also tricky when there’s only one person and they struggle to restrain and film the animal.
