Choosing software
The systems a clinic actually chooses between
We are one of the smallest names on this page. So rather than a feature table with our column pre-ticked, here is a straight description of each system and who it genuinely suits — including where the answer is not us.
Australia
Cliniko
The most widely used allied health system in Australia, known for being simple and calm.
Nookal
Australian-built, strong on multi-practitioner clinics, case management and reporting.
PracSuite
Built for Australian billing — Medicare, DVA and HICAPS as first-class citizens.
Zanda (formerly Power Diary)
Strong client experience — portal, reminders and telehealth — popular with psychology and counselling.
Halaxy
Widely used, broad feature set, with a pricing model built around transactions.
Coreplus
Long-standing Australian platform with deep allied health and funding-body coverage.
Splose
Newer Australian system, popular with NDIS-heavy and mobile allied health practices.
India
Practo Ray
India's best-known clinic software, bundled with the Practo patient discovery network.
Cliniify
India-focused clinic management with ABDM and ABHA awareness, multi-doctor and multi-specialty.
Halemind
Multi-specialty EHR used across Indian hospitals and clinics, with strong regional language support.
SmartPT
India-native physiotherapy system combining scheduling, EMR, home exercise and telehealth.
Australia and India first because that is where our clinics are and where the funding rules, the tax and the privacy law are ones we actually understand. Other countries when we can serve them properly rather than merely accept their money. Indian clinics should start at the Indian edition, which does not advertise Australian paperwork they will never file.
Where we fit
Built in a clinic that is still running
Clinifyd is written inside a working physiotherapy practice in Adelaide and used on real patients every day. The diary in the screenshots is the one the practice runs on. That is not a slogan about authenticity — it is why a bug a physiotherapist hits on Monday tends to be fixed by Wednesday, because the person who wrote it has to use it on Thursday.
Clinical writing cannot be lost
A note saves itself a couple of seconds after you stop typing, and keeps a copy in the browser while the server is unreachable — so a dropped connection, a closed laptop or a flat battery does not cost you the consultation. A note is very often the only record of something that has already happened, and asking a clinician to reconstruct it a day later is asking them to invent it.
A paid invoice never quietly changes
Once money has been taken against an invoice, the total stops moving. A correction becomes a credit note plus a replacement, and the original keeps its number and its date. It is less convenient than an edit box, and it is the only version an accountant, an auditor or a funder can actually rely on.
Your records leave in one click
Full CSV export of patients, appointments, notes and invoices, whenever you want, without asking us and without a fee. Every export is recorded in the audit log. We would rather show you the exit before you sign up than have you discover it does not exist two years in.
You can bring your patient list yourself
Export your patients from your current system and load the file in. The columns are read from the file's own headings, so it works whether the export says "First Name", "Firstname" or "Given Name" — and whether it came from a vendor or a spreadsheet somebody has kept by hand for nine years. Nothing is written until you have seen exactly what would happen.
Three months free, and no card
The whole workspace, not a crippled tier, for three months without a card. Refer a colleague and another month is added to yours every time one joins, with no limit — applied to the invoice rather than promised in an email. No lock-in contract and no exit fee.
