Standard Features of CHSVet
Our standard feature set is one of the most advanced available. With a consistent emphasis on the user CHSVet remains one of the easiest Practice Management Solutions to learn and use. Within minutes you can be sharing information across your network and within an hour confidently entering clients, patients, histories and appointments. And while others write about being first, CHSVet has already been there with support for wireless networks, mobiles and a whole lot more from it's inception in 1999.
Built in the world's #1purpose bought databases, Filemaker, CHSVet is a solid, reliable, scalable product with support you can depend upon.
CHSVet has the features you need in a flexible, user centred package.
Multi-branch clinics will also benefit by being able to run and inter-connect to other clinics to view their data. At the end of the day, the data from each clinic an be backed-up to a central location.
Full built-in redundancy. If your main computer or server goes down simply transfer your files to any work station, restart and be working while the computer gets fixed.
All the features you would expect and none of the fat! While other veterinary software developers see many of our features as special, we just see them as standard. See below:
