Provet Cloud: What does Provet Cloud cost?

Pricing is quoted per practice, generally by user count and modules, and is not published.

Provet Cloud: Why do vets need different software from doctors?

A veterinary clinic is a medical provider, a pharmacy and a retailer at once. Treatment, dispensing and stock have to reconcile against a single visit, which human healthcare systems do not model.

Provet Cloud: Does it support multiple clinics?

Yes, multi-site groups are supported under one account.

Provet Cloud: What happens if the internet goes down?

It is cloud-only, so recording consultations depends on connectivity. Clinics generally plan a fallback for outages.
