WriteUpp vs Medesk: Choosing the Best Practice Management Solution

Before we dive in, let's clarify one thing:

Software comparisons, especially when driven by businesses with their own interests, can be misleading and questionable. In fact, comparisons conducted by anyone other than yourself or your peers may lack credibility.

It wouldn't be fair for us to compare our product with Medesk's directly.

Why, you ask? Software comparisons between WriteUpp or Medesk tend to be biased and potentially misleading. In reality, comparisons made by anyone other than yourself (or maybe your peers) don't hold up under scrutiny. Have you ever seen a comparison chart favouring one company over another?

Their main goal isn't to help you choose the right solution; instead, they often aim to sell their own product. Your practice is unique, and while all practices share common goals, the way people use each system varies, leading to diverse experiences.

Looking for a Medesk Alternative? - We Do Things Differently

We don't guess which features you might want, nor do we simply mimic Medesk's offerings. Instead, we develop new features based on feedback from our user community. Our designs are driven by the aim of solving real user problems rather than copying the competition.

But hold on!

Now that you're exploring practice management solutions let us assist you in making the best choice for your practice. We'll take you through five crucial factors to consider before investing in practice management software.

5 Tips on What to Look for in Your Practice Management Software

1. Does it Offer the Functionality You Need?

Practice management software packages share core functionality, including an appointment scheduler, a patient database, health records, and financial reporting tools.

Advanced companies might offer additional features such as:

Online forms
Consent portals
Diary management
Cashless payments
Online booking
Video Consultations
Automatic communications
Waiting lists
Task lists
Document templates
Clinician analytics

Avoid investing in features you don't need immediately but consider future requirements.

2. Is Your Data Going to Be Safe?

Privacy and security are paramount when selecting clinic management software. Ensure the platform complies with local data protection regulations, like GDPR.

WriteUpp can likely help you achieve this, but check our data and security page for details before subscribing.

3. Will the System Work on All Your Devices?

Consider whether you want secure access to patient records and your diary from any device with internet access. Determine if it's compatible with your PC or Mac.

When taking patient notes, consider your preferred method: pen/stylus, voice recognition software, or annotating images.

Test the software on all devices you use daily during a free trial. If your private practice software doesn't run smoothly on every device you plan to use, don't use it.

4. Is the Price Right?

Don't base your choice solely on price. Compare costs with features, ease of use, customer service, and more.

Initial price discounts should be considered along with the final cost when the discount ends. Is the final price affordable for your business?
