Martin Housden, Optometrist in Scotland, has been using the software for a couple of months. He says “The program is straight forward and easy to use.  No problems getting it customised to suit our specific needs before buying it. I would thoroughly recommend it to anyone needing patient management software.”

John Prouse of Loftus Optical and Home Visit Eyecare: Opticabase is a little gem to use and is quite simply fantastic! I spent many weeks deciding on what PMS to setup for my new businesses and was so thankful I discovered Opticabase. If you are looking for a PMS then stop looking, save yourself time and money and just go with this great system. The support you get is also very very good!

Sally, Gary, and David of the Eye Team in Manchester say “We love the programme. After a few expected technical difficulties (mostly our fault!), we don't know how we managed without your system. Even the Optician is getting to grips with using it! Everything is really well set out and inputting all our patient records didn't take as long as we thought. For our practice this programme has been just what we needed, many practice databases available are just too detailed and too complicated for a small practice.”

Ian Flower FBDO CL of the Portland Optical Group comments, “Opticabase is a very efficient and easy to use system that requires very little computer expertise but delivers help and time for all my staff throughout their day. Opticabase is appropriate, direct and above all useful. Setup installation, information and assistance have been willingly and patiently provided. As an independent Optician I am very pleased to recommend Opticabase and Michael Prais”

Wendy Kay of VisualEyes Mobile Opticians, Inverness said "The installation and management of Opticabase has definitely been designed with 'ease of use' in mind. I have worked on many optical systems and can safely say Opticabase is the most easy to understand and the first I cannot fault. After using the free trial, our requirements were discussed with Michael and within 5 days, we had a tailor made system up and running in our office - with out any need for training. At last - someone has made an affordable, simplistic optical database tailored to our needs”.

Mr Nicolas Attrell Optometrist of “Eyes At Home”, Sussex is quoted saying “I recently approached Michael Prais after seeing an editorial in the Optometry Today Journal, and to anyone who gets involved with domiciliary work it is an absolute blessing. The time saved is enormous and the pre-notification facility is especially useful. I would highly recommend Opticabase Domiciliary”

Harminder of Manjot Optical. "I am very pleased with Opticabase software ,its working really well, its easy to use, and it saves a lot of time in form filling. Also I found your aftercare service really efficient in responding to any queries I had. Overall its a very efficent and an extremely useful software tool in a modern practice."

Daniel Bleetman FBDO is very happy with Opticabase. "I first started using Opticabase 3 years ago on the opening of our second practice. I was immediately impressed with its ease of use and we were up and running with a minimum of training needed. It is very logical and easy to use. We were so impressed with it that we have now transferred from one of the market leading Optical software companies to Opticabase in our first practice.
Unlike most of the competition this software has been written by an Optometrist who works in and understands the needs of a modern practice.
Originally we started off with the basic Opticabase package but recently upgraded to using the electronic diary and it works beautifully. No more pencil and rubber!
I am very happy to recommend Opticabase it has made a huge contribution to the smooth running of our pracitce"

Mrs Paula Wilkins FBDO - Proprietor Conway Opticians Weston super Mare. "I opened my Opticians in June 2009, it is my first business. I took some time to choose which computer program to use as I trialled several without any success.
I came across 'Opticabase' on line and it appealed to me for its user friendly set up.
I received a CD from Michael Prais for the trial period, this allowed me to work with the system beforehand to see if it would meet with my requirements.
I decided to purchase Opticabase, and found the price very competitive.
I have not regretted my decision, Opticabase is first class.
If there is any aspect of the program that I feel needs to be modified, I have found Michael Prais most approachable, extremely  helpful and supportive."
I willingly commend 'Opticabase'.

Mr Teifion Newman Bsc FBCO of Conway Opticians would like to commend 'Opticabase' and Michael Prais its designer.
"I have been using the program for 16 months or so and during that time I have found that I have more time to undertake my professional work due to the 'user friendly' nature of the program.
I have been qualified since 1968, am 63 years of age and was ignorant of the utilisation of computers until introduced to Opticabase.
The back up and support offered by Michael is first class and we have been able to 'fine tune' the program to meet my personal requirements.
Optometry has never been easier - partly due to Opticabase!!"

Helen Mcphie of Joseph's Opticians  says "Having used Opticabase for several months, I find myself thinking, on a daily basis, what did I ever do without it. Do not get me wrong, there have been one or two glitches, which I have found frustrating, but on the whole my experience using this computer software has been much easier than I expected. Michael Prais has been on hand to help and support me whenever the need has arisen. He is only a telephone call away and no matter what problems I encounter, he always come up with a solution. This has been invalueable to me during my introductory period. I would have no hesitation in recommending this software to any of my peers, as it is so easy to use and has been a great asset to the business."Mohammed Hussain MCOptom

Mohammed Hussain MCOptom: I have been using Opticabase for around 18 months now and find it very handy doing all the NHS paper work (Gos1’s, Gos 3’s, Gos 4’s, Gos 18’s) Managing the diaries, keeping stock of all frames and doing the dispensing is as easy as can be. Monitoring patient’s recall frequency as well as template letters for each individual type of patient are available making it easy to send reminders. Overall it's a breeze to use and is full of features for both the novice and the more advanced user.

In busy times it is like having an extra staff member on hand lightening the work load and making sure we run on time.

Claire Hawkins of Gray Opticians: “We have had the Opticabase system for a month & are using Reception Plus and Diary. I took a long time procrastinating before buying. Many systems that I compared it with were very expensive and seemed to have far too many functions for a small independent practice. I was concerned that Opticabase might be too straightforward but being able to try out the demonstration CD-Rom gave me confidence that it would meet my requirements.
From using the system, it is obvious that it is written by an Optical Professional. It appears to handle all of the administrative tasks in the practice in a very straightforward manner. It is not unnecessarily cumbersome or complicated and even my most computer-phobic member of staff can appreciate its benefits.
I have found Michael to be particularly patient and helpful in explaining things that I didn’t understand or sorting out technical glitches caused by the format of our previous database. I would happily recommend Opticabase to others.
