Biggest Bang for your Buck

At PracticePanther, we believe in a “what you see is what you get" pricing model. PracticePanther is a cloud-based software that allows you to safely manage your practice from anywhere. Needles on-premise solution is prone to security threats and migrating to their cloud-based solution is buggy and requires days of downtime. With Needles, you'll lose time and incur hidden fees while tied up with their IT support. PracticePanther builds your tools natively, so as soon as you walk through our door, your client portal, intake forms, and custom reports are there waiting for you to get started — at no extra cost.
