Where each one falls short

Allscripts TouchWorks

  • Allscripts moved its products to the Veradigm brand in 2022, so the Allscripts name is retired
  • Pricing is not published
  • TouchWorks is not named on the Veradigm site, so whether it survives as a distinct product cannot be confirmed from the vendor

Vetspire

  • Quote-only pricing with no published rates
  • A newer entrant, so its track record is shorter than established systems
  • Structured records take more effort to enter than free text, and clinician adoption is the main implementation risk
  • Strongest in the US market, with less coverage elsewhere
