There is not a simple way to do things on this app, everything has several ways to do done and is quite confusing. > > To be honest, I wouldn't recommend Zanda to anyone. Although is fully remote, I think it's missing many useful features and is not user friendly. ----- ### "Great practice software platform for allied health professionals" — 5.0/5 > **Kate** | *20 May 2025* | Health, Wellness & Fitness | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Designed for allied health professsionals. Wide range of features including integrated telehealth, SMS reminders, customisable forms and note templates, online bookings and client portal. > > **Cons**: Would like the option of phone support rather than only email or chat - you can book a phone session but booked out for weeks so this doesn't work for urgent issues. Would also love more features in the client portal eg sharing of documents. > > Overall very happy with the features and they are always updating and adding new features and improvements. ----- ### "Love this program\!" — 5.0/5 > **Penny** | *11 March 2025* | Mental Health Care | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: This is a great program that meets my business needs. It's so easy to use, and well integrated with other software. There are so many great features\! The templates are easy to personalise, with fields I can merge into my emails. While I was setting up my business on this platform I was able to have all my questions answered through the chat function or the knowledge base. I love the client portal that makes client bookings so easy. When I send out forms they are automatically attached to my clients' Zanda file once they are completed, with no need for me to manually file them. > > **Cons**: I did not know about the fees associated with sending out texts through Zanda before I signed up. I would have liked to know about these costs. > > Fantastic overall experience, I'm very happy with this program. ----- ### "A secure, reliable all-in-one solution for health practices" — 5.0/5 > **Sarah** | *23 September 2026* | Health, Wellness & Fitness | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: The system is intuitive and the training material is extremely thorough, so the learning curve is easy for scheduling, appointment management and all other practice-related day-to-day tasks, which makes it simple to train new team members. Data security is something our clients take very seriously, and Zanda's high security standards ensure that their sensitive client information is being handled properly. Another major pro for us is how quickly they respond to feedback and the effort they go to resolve issues and thoroughly explain their reasoning. Their customer service is outstanding\! What Zanda offers is great value for money, which is why it's our preferred system to recommend to clients operating practices of all sizes, all around Australia. > > **Cons**: Scorable screens and questionnaires took quite a while to become available, which was a gap for many of the psychology and allied health practices we support. We also found it frustrating early on that there was no way to integrate AI tools into the system, especially as more clinics started looking for ways to streamline note-taking and admin. Credit where it's due, though: both of these things have now been rectified, and it's been great to see Zanda listen to feedback and keep evolving the platform. > > We support a large number of allied health clinics across Australia, and Zanda is one of the practice management systems our team works in daily. It covers everything a busy practice needs without feeling bloated, and it's one we're always happy to see when a new client comes on board (and the first one we recommmend when a client is looking to switch\!). Their commitment to meeting the highest security standards, and their genuine, reliable, multi-channel customer service really sets them apart. We provide admin support to approx. 90 clinics around Australia, so we have plenty of experience working with allied health practices. Zanda really is the best PMS on the market. ----- ### "A software that compares to no other\!" — 5.0/5 > **Alice** | *22 September 2026* | Management Consulting | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: As a psychology practice consultant, I work with Zanda across a number of practices and really appreciate how much functionality it brings together in one platform. I particularly value the ability to customise forms, automate client communications and build workflows that support a smoother experience for both clients and administration teams. It's a platform I enjoy working with because there are so many opportunities to refine existing processes and help practices get more out of their systems. It's scalable and future proofed. The team and support provided is great, and they are always coming out with cool new features to make the work easier. > > **Cons**: One small limitation is that I can't apply multiple visual flags to a single appointment. More flexibility here would be helpful. > > My experience with Zanda has been very positive. As a psychology practice consultant, I work across multiple practices and regularly use Zanda to help owners improve their systems, streamline administration and create a better experience for their clients. I particularly appreciate the flexibility of the platform and the opportunities it provides to customise workflows to suit different practice needs. It's a system I genuinely enjoy working with, and I value the ongoing development of the platform and the support available to its users. For me, Zanda is a valuable tool for helping psychology and allied health practices build more efficient and sustainable operations. ----- Page: 1 / 10\ Next: [Next page](https://www.capterra.com.au/software/180530/power-diary?page=2) ## Links - [View on Capterra](https://www.capterra.com.au/software/180530/power-diary) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | de-CH | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-IL | | | en-IN | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-AR | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-CR | | | es-DO | | | es-EC | | | es-MX | | | es-PA | | | es-PE | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | fr-LU | | | it | | | nb | | | nl | | | nl-BE | | | pl | | | pt | | | pt-PT | | | tr | | ----- ## Structured Data
