Agree with former complaint re calendar synch removal
AnsweredHi Sara,
I have to agree with previous post about removing the calendar syncing. When I opted for the required choice for a new plan for the next billing cycle, it removed my syncing for this cycle. That's hard to accept.
Here is the previous post, which I have cached:

I understand raising your rates a bit-- but removing the calendar sync from my solo practitioner plan feels petty and punitive. It makes no sense for me to pay 40% more than i'm currently paying for the same service I currently have. Going from $59 per month to $99 per month is --pragmatically speaking a 40% increase for my business to retain the same features. Excessive and punishing. Please reconsider. Otherwise, I will be reconsidering simple practice.

I'm finally getting around to looking at the 'options' SP is giving us and was OK with a price increase.... until exactly this calendar sync feature came to my attention. Really? It's the only thing I rely on that will go away with the mid tier plan. Feels SO oily. Shame. I'm joining the exodus unless they rethink this.

Same. I just got around to going through the pricing options this morning. Their prices seem to be set for larger practices with multiple clinicians, because I know very few independent therapists who would be able to justify the rate increase offset by the features. I am hoping that Simple Practice get their heads out of their asses and fix the pricing structure within the next 2 months, otherwise I'm out. There's no way I'm paying $100 to get features I have now for $60.

I am also considering finding another EHR provider after this surprising turn of events. As soon as I switched into the new pricing structure, I lost the calendar sync despite paying the same exact amount. This is an ESSENTIAL feature and not worth paying another $40 for. This is an unfortunate decision on SimplePractice's part and damaging to its brand.
