Pros / Cons
  • Also, being able to work live in the field the office sees my invoices immediately and can provide clients with accurate balances in real time.
  • Sometimes it can be frustrating with the limitations of the types of reports they offer to track revenue. If I want to track how many dental packages we do, we have to add up all the revenue ourselves.

  • I like that we are able to view compliance reports directly in PetDesk, which actually makes it easier to view and use than our PMS does.
  • 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.
