Give Your Team the Tools to Work Better
See how Digitail can simplify your workflows, support your team, and improve the experience for both clients and staff.
βNow we can get a real-time snapshot of whatβs going on with our business, quickly identify trends, gauge efficiency, and make data-driven decisions. Tasks that previously consumed two weeks now require just five minutes.β
βWeβve been using Digitail for about 18 months now, and itβs been a successful, smooth transition. There are several really neat features that our staff have been enjoying, mainly because they align with the modern workflow and communication preferences of both our team and clients.β
βFirst time in my career that I can say that I really love our PMS! How many vets get to say that? Huge shout out to the whole team at Digitailβ¦.Awesome platform, awesome support!β
βFirst and foremost, the software is so easy to use and very functional. One of the great things about it is being able to access it ANYWHERE. The pet-parent portal is also genius, and our clients are definitely fans! The chat function and diary updates are great for managing difficult cases. We also really like how the treatments are so easily approved and defined within a SOAP note and then anything approved will automatically pull into the invoice. It makes missing charges a thing of the past.β
βOne of the challenges was choosing a software program that we can use on any device either at the clinic or at home. Being a mom, it was important to me to spend as much time as I could at home while still having access to my business.β
βDigitail bills itself as ‘modern veterinary software you wish youβd had sooner,’ which is exactly as straightforward as it sounds. It also happens to be true… Itβs like upgrading from a PDA to an iPhone, it just works. It makes communications and management easy in a cloud-based system.”
ββ¦Digitail is constantly stepping up to the plate, innovating, growing, and improving. Willing to adapt and change with the customer base. I wanted software that had the vet in mind β that wasnβt worried about large corporate agendas. Digitail was new on the block, but from the start, I was excited by Digitailβs potential. Three years later, I couldnβt be happier with my choice. I know there will always be innovation and growth shaped by their users, like me.β
