What the pricing really means
At first glance, BreezyNotes looks cheaper at $19/month vs $100/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 Valant wins
- 80+ built-in reportable outcome measures that auto-send, score, and graph over time, which is the deepest measurement-based care in the category
- E-prescribing with EPCS and PDMP integration included, so psychiatrists can prescribe controlled substances without a separate tool
- MYIO patient portal app for iOS and Android handles intake, payments, and appointment management from the client side
- Telehealth supports group sessions with up to 30 participants, screen sharing, and whiteboard, which is more than most competitors
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 Valant falls short
- G2 rating of 3.0/5 is among the lowest in the category, with complaints about navigation, glitches, and a steep learning curve
- No published pricing means you must contact sales for a quote, and reported costs of $100-300/mo make it one of the pricier options
- No free trial available, so you commit based on a demo rather than hands-on testing with your own workflows
- Multiple reviewers report that telehealth sessions drop or lag, and the patient portal setup is described as an administrative headache
