Primary Solutions, Brittco, or MediSked? – Which One is Right for You?
Updated 12/2019: We conclude this feature comparison of Primary Solutions, Brittco, and MediSked with some final observations.
- None of the three solutions has pricing on their website. This is likely due to the fact that they are using modular systems and charging per module. As a result, it would be cumbersome to list pricing. Having said that, these are specialized software products aimed at a niche audience and will carry a commensurate price tag.
- Brittco’s offering is basic, yet robust, making it more user-friendly than its competitors. Organizations of varying size are being drawn to Brittco, especially due to the company’s focus of listening to and understanding users’ needs, which allows them to innovate and deliver a user-driven feature set.
- Primary Solutions is the oldest player in software geared to DD provider agencies and as a result, has a long list of clients and a comprehensive offering that may be more attractive to some organizations. An expansion to Indiana and recent changes have them focusing on innovation.
- MediSked takes in the breadth of human services organizations and therefore its product is not specifically fine-tuned to DD service providers in particular. With that said, many use it and like it.
