Veterinary PIMS Transparency Index 2026

This page looks at the whole market, not one vendor. 24 of 57 ranked systems publish list prices you can read before speaking to sales. That figure is not on any single vendor page. It comes from reading every scored system in the same way.

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%.

72% of scored systems publish nothing about their contracts. Getting your data out is the area vendors explain least clearly, with an average of 0.9 out of 5. 84% are described as cloud or both cloud and on-site. Full practice management systems average 64%. Older systems average 39%.

Use the tables below to see where the market is quiet as well as where it is clear. If almost nobody publishes an answer, most vendors are asking you to buy without that information. 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.

The number is how clearly vendors explain the things a practice manager needs before buying. It is not software quality, value, clinical safety, or a recommendation. Scoring rules are on the method page. Research date: 2026-08-17.
