What the pricing really means
At first glance, SimplePractice looks cheaper at $49/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 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 SimplePractice wins
- 30-day free trial with no credit card required, so you can actually test it with real clients before paying
- Telehealth included on all plans, even the $49/mo Starter, which most competitors charge extra for
- Mobile app handles progress notes, scheduling, and telehealth between sessions without needing a laptop
- 225,000+ practitioners use it, which means community forums, YouTube walkthroughs, and third-party templates are everywhere
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
Where SimplePractice falls short
- G2 rating dropped to 3.9/5, which is low for the market leader and points to real frustration among power users
- No e-prescribing without a DrFirst add-on, so psychiatrists and prescribers will need another tool
- Support response times have slipped according to recent reviews, with some users waiting days for non-urgent tickets
- API access is locked behind the Plus plan at $99/mo, so automating workflows on the cheaper plans is not possible
