What the pricing really means
At first glance, CounSol looks cheaper at $50/month vs $249/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 CounSol wins
- Every single user gets a personal dedicated account manager, which is unheard of at this price point in healthcare software
- 4.9/5 customer service score on Capterra backed by 828 reviews, not just a handful of happy users
- e-Prescribing available as an add-on ($60-70/mo), so psychiatrists and prescribers can stay on one platform
- All four plans include HIPAA-compliant records, scheduling, secure messaging, and a branded client portal
- CounselorListing.com advertising included on Standard Plus and above, which is free marketing for your practice
Where Weave wins
- 4.6 G2 rating with 426 reviews is highest in category for communication tools
- VoIP phones with missed call texting means you never lose a new patient inquiry
- Integrates with 70+ existing practice management systems
- Text-to-pay gets you paid faster than mailing statements
Where CounSol falls short
- No mobile app, and CounSol has been promising one is coming without delivering, which frustrates practitioners who work between offices
- Video sessions are glitchy according to multiple reviews, with group video not supported and device compatibility issues reported
- Video session quality is inconsistent — multiple reviews report glitches, and group video is not supported
- Interface looks dated compared to newer competitors like SimplePractice or Jane, which may put off younger practitioners
- No API means zero automation or integration with external tools
Where Weave falls short
- NOT an EHR or practice management system — it's a communication layer on top of your existing software
- Starting at $249/mo plus $750 setup makes it expensive for what it does
- Scheduling and digital forms locked behind Elite tier
- No telehealth or clinical features at all
