Where each one falls short

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

Jane App

  • Balance plan severely limited to 20 appointments per month
  • Additional practitioner costs vary based on full-time vs. part-time hours

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

Jane App: How much does it cost to add practitioners to Jane App?

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.

Jane App: Do clinics with many practitioners get discounts on Jane App?

Yes, clinics with 10 or more practitioners may qualify for discounted rates on Jane App.

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.

Jane App: Is AI Scribe available as an add-on on all Jane App plans?

Yes, AI Scribe is available as an optional add-on across all plans at $15/month per practitioner, or 5 free notes monthly.

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.
