What the pricing really means
At first glance, Grow Therapy looks cheaper at $0/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 Grow Therapy wins
- Free platform with full EHR, telehealth, and managed insurance billing
- 100+ insurance plan partnerships including Medicaid in select states
- AI-assisted documentation built in
- 4.7/5 on Trustpilot with 7,500+ reviews — more than most EHRs
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 Grow Therapy falls short
- No presence on G2 or Capterra makes independent comparison harder
- Commission model means lower per-session take-home than billing yourself
- Similar to Headway — you trade independence for convenience
- Not designed for group practices
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
