- Only platform with native WhatsApp Business API (not a third-party workaround)
- Full ABDM HIP+HIU compliance — not just ABHA ID lookup
- All features included in base price — no add-on modules
- Onboarding support in India with clinic-type-specific setup

FAQ
Is free clinic software reliable for daily use?
Free clinic software typically lacks ABDM compliance, proper GST billing, and reliable support — all of which are essential for a modern Indian clinic. The cost of errors (missed ABDM deadlines, incorrect GST filings) far exceeds a ₹999/month subscription.
Can I migrate my data from existing software?
Most platforms support data import via CSV/Excel. Patient demographics and appointment history are straightforward to migrate. Clinical notes and prescriptions vary — ask your new provider for a migration checklist before committing.
How long does clinic software setup take?
With proper onboarding support, a single-doctor clinic can be fully operational in 2–3 days: day 1 for configuration, day 2 for staff training, day 3 for go-live. Clinics with complex setups (multi-doctor, multi-location) should budget 1–2 weeks.
