To simplify your workflow, we’ve streamlined the process for logging in and submitting help requests. You only need to login once to access your SimplePractice accounts, help requests, and the Help Center. This means that once you log into one of these applications, you will automatically be logged into all of them.
Having one sign-in saves you time and effort because it:
- Creates a personal portal for you where you can initiate, follow up on, and even track the history of your communications with SimplePractice - no more solely relying on email or dealing with lost help responses. You even have the power to mark the request as solved, or you can choose to follow up with a Customer Success representative.
- Immediately identifies you and your practice information in SimplePractice - this will speed up response times even more and allows our team to better focus our efforts faster.
- Increases the security of your SimplePractice account - we’ve gone an extra step to secure the exchange of your data.
