Liberty Software

Answered from the vendors’ own pages

Digitail: What does Digitail cost?

Pricing is quoted per practice and not published.

Liberty Software: Why do pharmacies choose Liberty?

Support, most often. In a category where a software failure stops dispensing, response quality is a rational primary criterion and Liberty customers cite it consistently.

Digitail: What does the pet owner app do?

It gives clients their pet’s records, vaccination reminders and booking, which lifts reminder compliance compared with email.

Liberty Software: How does it compare to PioneerRx?

PioneerRx is broader, particularly in clinical services. Liberty is simpler and its customers rate support more highly. The right answer depends on whether clinical services are central to the pharmacy business.

Digitail: Does it support multiple clinics?

Yes, multi-location groups run under one account.

Liberty Software: What does it cost?

Not published. Ask for the total including hardware and interfaces rather than the monthly software figure.

Liberty Software: Is it cloud-based?

No. It is a Windows application, which is still normal in this category but is where newer entrants differentiate.

Liberty Software: Does it handle point of sale?

Yes, integrated front-end retail alongside the pharmacy system, which matters for independents with a significant non-prescription business.
