### Pros

"SOAPs are easily written, readible, and records are easily sent to referring DVMs which makes managing patients between doctors and practices very efficient."

"It also integrates SMS texting and allows the comm's to be easily inserted into the patient file."

"Minimal tabs or clicking like you get with Cornerstone or EZ vet and it reports are more robust than you get with Instinct which in my mind is the only runner up software out there."

### Cons

"Still having some issues with the transcription service--sometimes it won't fill in (just spin) and it always records the weight in kg even if the settings are set for lb."

"When there are updates and the updates cause glitches in the system that shut it down for awhile or cause errors on our schedule"

"The anesthesia forms do not autosave- this creates an issue if we turn on the auto logout after x minutes."
