Does Virtual Consultant Online replace practice management software?

Yes. Practices can register for a free trial to explore the platform before committing to a subscription. The trial gives access to core features including the guided photo intake workflow and quote generation tools, allowing the clinical team to assess the system before going live with patients. A trial is a practical way to see how a practice's patients respond to a photo request link and how much time the clinical team spends reviewing submissions. Practices should check the plan details on the pricing page before the trial ends so there are no surprises about what continues afterwards.

Practices can book a live demonstration through the Virtual Consultant Online website. A demonstration covers the full patient intake workflow, quote generation, follow-up automation, and reporting features, and can be tailored to the specific questions or workflow concerns of the practice team. It is helpful to bring a few realistic patient scenarios, such as a teenager's parent asking about NHS eligibility or an adult asking about aligners, so the team can see how the intake and quoting steps handle each.
