Pros / Cons
  • Loved that you could run a good number of reports and you could custom create a report if you wanted to.
  • The version of cornerstone that we had was not cloud based and instead was server based, which caused significant issues when our server was experiencing malfunction despite our internet being perfectly stable.

  • Integration with additional practice management systems and clearer notification settings would also be beneficial.
  • Another negative is that some settings can only be changed by PetDesk staff such as pushing a reminder at a certain time (appointment is on the schedule at 10am but you want the client there at 8am) or what types of appoinments get reminders.
