What the pricing really means
At first glance, BreezyNotes looks cheaper at $19/month vs $29.9/month. But sticker price is only part of the story. Look at what is included on the base plan, how many users you get, and whether you need add-ons to get the features you actually need. The $99/month plan that requires $200 in add-ons is actually more expensive than the $250/month plan that includes everything.
Where BreezyNotes wins
- Built specifically for Canadian therapists with Canadian billing codes and insurance workflows, which US-based EHRs typically do not support
- Pay-per-note pricing starts at $19/mo and scales with volume, so quiet months cost less instead of a flat fee you pay regardless
- Pricing is per practice, not per therapist, so adding clinicians does not multiply your monthly bill
- Customer support is consistently praised in reviews for being responsive and treating practices like partners, not ticket numbers
Where IntakeQ wins
- The intake forms are the best in the category. Fully customizable, branded, and clients actually complete them before the first session without calling you confused
- Low-volume plans at $29.90 and $59.90 per month let part-time practitioners avoid paying for capacity they do not use
- Month-to-month billing with no contracts. You can upgrade, downgrade, or cancel anytime without penalty
- 4.7 stars on both G2 and Capterra with over 300 reviews. That is not hype, that is consistent satisfaction across years of feedback
- The API is well documented, so if you want to push form data into your own systems or Zapier, you can
Where BreezyNotes falls short
- Only 14 reviews on Capterra, which makes it hard to assess long-term reliability or know what happens when things go wrong
- No native mobile app, so charting between sessions means logging into a browser on your phone
- No e-prescribing or outcome measurement tools, so prescribers and researchers will need separate systems
- Client portal and appointment reminders are reported as not fully functional by some reviewers, with manual data entry still required in spots
Where IntakeQ falls short
- The practice management side is an add-on, not the core product. Scheduling and billing work but feel less polished than dedicated EHRs
- No native mobile app. Checking forms and appointments from your phone means using a mobile browser
- If you need full EHR features like outcome measures or treatment plan tracking, IntakeQ does not go deep enough
- Adding practitioners gets expensive. At $30/month per additional provider on the top plan, a five-person practice pays $204.90/month
