Reviews of Digitail
User friendly solution for both vets and pet owners.
Pros:
The fact that someone came with a very ingenious solution for digitalizing not only pet's healts records, but also all the registers that our country legislation requires and was able to make it user friendly helped me and my colleagues the most. Now we don't lose precious time doing the inventory every month, or checking if our assistants have removed pricesely the drugs used that day from our stock, or even calling the owners for a vaccine or a check-up reminder. We can focus on what we supposed to from the beginning, saving pets life without being preocupied that maybe you are left out of stock for some drugs or that maybe Charlie the Pug forgot about his annual check-up. And in the end, the owners are pleased to have a virtual health book in their personal phone at any moment with an accurate history of past and future appointments in our clinic.
Cons:
At first I thought it will be difficult to transfer the old virtual database to Digitail, but I was pleasantly surprised that their consultants found a personalised solution for us that dind't require as much time or effort as expected.

Thank you Dr Monica! It was a pleasure to assist you with the data migration!
Incredible System, Incredible Team!
Comments: [sensitive content hidden], our onboarding person, has been incredible. He has dealt with my silly questions, serious questions, and overall frustrations getting it up and running (although the frustrations have been few). Even with the big time difference, he has been available when we needed him! He is extremely knowledgeable and want him to come to the U.S. and work at our hospital as a vet (and Digitail expert) lol.
Pros:
Coming from a server based system, its incredible to be able to access from anywhere! There are many functions, some we haven't even tried yet (baby steps in implementing them) that make the process so much easier. And of course, we are in a a love-hate relationship with "Tails"....we love it because it's the coolest thing ever, but hate the fact that down the road I won't be needed lol!
Cons:
Inventory management is something to get used to, but we will get there. I do also wish we could create our own visit types to work with what we are used to. Also, one request would be to be able to re-order the entries in a canned treatment plan so if we have to adjust it, it will be in logical order of how we go through the process. Right now, new entries only appear at the bottom and can not be moved and the whole plan needs to be re-created.

Thank you so much for sharing this thoughtful review! We love hearing that you've embraced the flexibility and functionality of our system, and we get a good laugh out of your "love-hate" relationship with Tails! 😄 It's designed to lighten the load, but your expertise is definitely required! Regarding the cons you mentioned, we hear you! Inventory management can be a bit of a learning curve, but it sounds like you're on the right path. As for the treatment plan reordering and custom visit types—there is excellent feedback! We've passed these suggestions along to our development team as we're always looking to improve workflows. And we'll make sure to let your onboarding lead know they have a fan club waiting for them in the U.S. 😎 They're a rockstar, and we're thrilled they could support you through this transition. Thanks again for making the leap to Digitail—we're excited to continue growing with you! -Heather Ashcroft Communty Lead
STAY AWAY FROM DIGITAIL!
Comments: The software is a total joke. We were lied to when we signed and unless you copy the CEO on every email, no one answers. It's just bad software with no customer support.
Pros:
There are no pros at this point. They have run us through the ringer so bad we are already shopping for another software.
Cons:
They fired our implementation person along with about a quarter of their staff the day before we went live. Their tech support team does not respond to problems. You can't change reminders going out to your customers. Our no show rate skyrocketed after we went live with them. If you have multiple locations, you can't set up your own employees.

Overall good experience from a veterinary ophthalmologist
Comments: Overall very good. I think Digitail has a lot of potential and I look forward to continuing to work with them.
Pros:
I like the interface, the ease of use, the forward thinking (AI, voice integrations).
Cons:
I am a specialist and I was hoping there would be advancements to integrate the unique aspects of a referral hospital. Also customer service can be very helpful, but not always very prompt. The chat option really isn't truly a chat because it can takes days for them to respond. That is really just an email.

We LOVE Digitail!
Pros:
First and foremost, the software is so easy to use and very functional. One of the great things about it is being able to access it ANYWHERE. The pet-parent portal is also genius and our clients are definitely fans! The chat function and diary updates are great for managing difficult cases. We also really like how the treatments are so easily approved and declined within a SOAP note and then anything approved will automatically pull into the invoice. It makes missing charges a thing of the past. As a brand new practice we had to start from the ground up. Our onboarding specialist, [sensitive content hidden], has been the absolute best! The fact that Digitail is constantly improving and working to be more functional is phenomenal. Honestly, there's so many nice things it would be hard to list them all but we really do just love it!
Cons:
There have only been a few small things I've noticed that I wasn't a fan of or feel should be worked on a bit more. The one thing I find slightly inconvenient is having to remove pricing when sending a record so instead of hitting just "send email" we have to go into the "advanced records options" every time to change it. One other thing is not being able to apply a 0 to the low end of an estimate on any product that has a dispensing fee as it will always still add the dispensing fee instead of displaying a $0 - still trying to figure a way around that without creating a bunch of new services or changing dispensing fees. The last thing I can think of that has been an issue is merging clients/patients. I've noticed after we have manually entered a client and patient into the system, if they then go enter themselves into the app it will create a duplicate and I do not have the power to merge them.
