Where each one falls short

Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.

ChiroTouch

  • ChiroTouch does not publish specific pricing amounts on their website
  • Three tiers exist (Start, Grow, Scale) but prices are not displayed
  • Company directs customers to book a demo or call 800.852.1771 for pricing details
  • Optional add-ons (CT Pay, CT Billing Suite, CT SmartFit) have unknown pricing
  • All ChiroTouch plans include AI features and unlimited support but cost comparison requires direct contact

Onward Vet

  • The vendor is small, so support depth, release pace and the ability to absorb a serious outage are all limited compared with IDEXX, Covetrus or the larger cloud vendors.
  • The integration catalogue is short, so specialist imaging, communication or wellness plan tools that connect to ezyVet or Provet Cloud may need manual handling here.
  • Reporting is basic, so a practice that wants production analysis by veterinary surgeon, detailed inventory valuation or multi-site consolidation will be exporting data to a spreadsheet.
  • There is no on-premise option, so a clinic with an unreliable internet connection has no fallback when the link goes down and the appointment book becomes unreachable.
  • Concentration risk is real with a supplier of this size: acquisition, a change of direction or a funding problem would put your record system into other hands, so test the data export before committing.

Answered from the vendors’ own pages

ChiroTouch: How much does ChiroTouch cost?

ChiroTouch does not publish pricing on their website. The company offers three tiers (Start, Grow, Scale), each with progressively more AI features, but pricing requires booking a demo or calling 800.852.1771 to speak with sales.

Source
Onward Vet: How is it priced?

As a flat practice subscription with unlimited users, quoted rather than published, which is why it suits clinics with many part-time staff.

ChiroTouch: What are the differences between ChiroTouch plans?

ChiroTouch Start is for efficient daily operations; ChiroTouch Grow (most popular) adds AI Scribe and multi-location support; ChiroTouch Scale adds AI Review Responder, AI Translator, and lead management. All plans include AI core features, guided onboarding, and unlimited support, but pricing requires direct contact.

Source
Onward Vet: Is it suitable for a multi-site group?

Not really. It is built for single-site independent clinics; consolidated reporting and cross-site inventory are not its strength.

ChiroTouch: Are there add-ons available for ChiroTouch?

Yes, ChiroTouch offers optional add-ons including CT Pay (payment processing), CT Billing Suite (insurance billing), and CT SmartFit (exercise programs). Pricing for these add-ons is not disclosed and requires contacting ChiroTouch directly.

Source
Onward Vet: What happens if the internet goes down?

You lose access to the appointment book and records. There is no on-premise fallback, so a secondary connection is a sensible precaution.

Onward Vet: Can I get my data out?

Ask for a full export during evaluation and check what format it comes in. With a small vendor this is a question to answer before you sign, not afterwards.
