What the pricing really means
At first glance, Headway looks cheaper at $0/month vs $54/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 Headway wins
- Completely free for providers — zero monthly cost
- Insurance credentialing done in weeks instead of the usual months
- 65,000+ providers across all 50 states
- AI-assisted session notes via built-in Scribe
Where Jane App wins
- 4.8 Capterra rating is the highest in the practice management category, and 491 reviews back it up
- Built for multidisciplinary clinics so physio, chiro, massage, and counselors all work in one system with discipline-specific templates
- CAD pricing means US-based practices effectively pay 25-30% less than the sticker price
- Free unlimited SMS reminders on Practice plan and up, while competitors charge per message
Where Headway falls short
- Headway owns your credentialing — if you leave, you may need to re-credential
- Commission from insurance reimbursements means you earn less per session
- No e-prescribing
- Not built for group practices — every provider must be individually licensed and credentialed
Where Jane App falls short
- No free trial at all, only guided demos, so you commit before testing with your actual workflow
- Insurance billing is an add-on at CAD $20/mo plus CAD $5 per full-time practitioner, not included in base price
- Only 16 G2 reviews suggests smaller US market presence and less community support stateside
- CAD pricing can confuse US-based practices when credit card statements show different amounts than expected
