Most vendors do not publish their contract terms: 41 of 57 ranked systems say nothing about them. That is a market figure, not a restatement of one vendor's website. Whether they say how long you are tied in, how you leave, and any extra lock-ins.
We have looked at 60 products. 57 of those are scored. On average they score 60% for how clearly they explain the things a practice manager needs before buying. The middle score is 60%.
41 of 57 scored systems say nothing about this. If almost nobody publishes this information, treat the gap as a question to ask — not as proof the feature is missing.
The list below is the same catalogue as the homepage, ordered by this topic so you can see who explains it and who does not. A high score means the vendor has published more. It does not mean the software is better. A score of zero means we could not find the answer on their public site — not that the product cannot do that thing. We do not recommend a winner. Open a vendor page for sources, the method page for the scoring rules, or the dataset page if you want the underlying table. If a vendor later publishes a clearer answer, the score can move. Send a public link if we have missed something.
