While I've rarely needed customer service, they were quite responsive and communicated well when I did. > > **Cons**: It's a little hard to set up adult family therapy, and I wish the telehealth option allowed a single link that could be reused for each session. > > I am a very satisfied customer, and I did a ton of research before choosing Simple Practice. The fact that they've kept the price stable while introducing excellent upgrades is appreciated\! ----- ### "Best EHR for solo providers" — 5.0/5 > **Anonymous User** | *11 November 2025* | Mental Health Care | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: It truly is simple to use. It offers all the features I need as a medical provider: customizable templates, ability to add various codes, built in billing, analytics, secure messaging, questionaries which can be scheduled to be sent to patients prior to each appointment. > > **Cons**: The cost has increased over the years which I understand to some degree is due to new features, however, I do not need most of the features they have added as a single practitioner. > > I have used SimplePractice for five years and have had very few issues. Their team is easy to communicate with and respond quickly to help solve the problem. ----- ### "Easy to use, but too expensive" — 4.0/5 > **Kare** | *25 March 2026* | Mental Health Care | Recommendation rating: 5.0/10 > > **Pros**: I like the ease of appointment management. I don’t get too many disruptions. It feels very streamlined. > > **Cons**: I think simple practice charges way too much and they keep raising their rates. It feels a bit predatory. > > Overall it’s nice to use and understand. It’s streamlined for my clients which is helpful as many clients have anxiety. ----- ### "Not Good at all, stay away from this company" — 1.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *09 August 2025* | Health, Wellness & Fitness | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10 > > **Pros**: There really was not anything about this platform that I liked. I thought initially the layout seemed more intuitive but as I started using it, it clearly was not. > > **Cons**: I’ve been unable to reach SimplePractice support despite multiple attempts. I had a meeting scheduled for 10:30 AM, but no one showed up, and there’s been zero communication. This is unacceptable for a platform that professionals rely on to run their practice. > > My experience with SimplePractice was not good at all. I will purposely and actively warn others to not use this service. ----- ### "Good for Some" — 4.0/5 > **Emily** | *13 December 2025* | Consumer Services | Recommendation rating: 6.0/10 > > **Pros**: It’s amazing for practices accepting insurance from traditional insurance companies. The user interface for both the client and clinician are also amazing. > > **Cons**: The reporting side is lacking compared to other EHRs for Therapy practices. There is also no way to use non-traditional insurances and still pull reports for how much that company owes. > > It’s a great tool for some, but we determined it was not the best for our company. It is expensive and the benefits did not outweigh what we were missing that other EHRs had. ----- Page: 1 / 114\ Next: [Next page](https://www.capterra.co.za/software/130710/simplepractice?page=2) ## Links - [View on Capterra](https://www.capterra.co.za/software/130710/simplepractice) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | de-CH | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-IL | | | en-IN | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-AR | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-CR | | | es-DO | | | es-EC | | | es-MX | | | es-PA | | | es-PE | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | fr-LU | | | it | | | ja | | | nl | | | nl-BE | | | pt | | | pt-PT | | ----- ## Structured Data
