We have been using Optix for 10 months now and are particularly happy with the excellent level of customer support. Having attended the recent user-group meeting we are also impressed with the commitment to adapt and improve the software to meet the user’s needs. The team at Optix really listen to Read more their clients.

Having abandoned other Management Systems I was initially apprehensive about trying another system. However following recommendations from several colleagues I decided to install the Optix system. As expected it takes time to get used to the system but the support team is excellent, they are always Read more there to guide us through any problem, even if we make the same mistake twice.

Rather than adopting the full system from Day One I am adding components as our confidence improves and we are able to change haw the practice functions. I am confident that before long we shall be "paperless".

Optix was my first and only practice software. It contains everything you could possibly need to run a practice (even remotely) including a forum for other Optix users to ask questions, swap frames, and even tell jokes. The support team are always helpful and prompt at solving any issues or Read more submitting requests for future updates.

Gardiner Opticians introduced Optix 6 months ago, having used paper for virtually everything before - we had more filing cabinets than anything else in the practice. After a few weeks of entering our product catalogues into the system, we moved over to Optix overnight. All our systems were running Read more on Optix - clinical records, dispensing, recall letters, the till, product catalogues and ordering. It was a tough week or two adapting our whole way of working, but within a few weeks everyone was beginning to appreciate the benefits it could bring.

The support and training involved in moving from systems where virtually everything was done on paper to a completely computerised system in a matter of weeks was enormous. Optix support has been excellent all along. We can now access business information in seconds that previously took hours of painstaking analysis of paper records. We can finally start thinking about moving out some of those filing cabinets. I can’t imagine how we managed without it for so long!

It’s difficult to put into words how good Optix is, that’s because it’s seamless and an integral part of our business. I can honestly say that having tried the other major systems available, Optix gives us the tools and professional support to operate our business at a different level.

The Optix system is a joy to use , it is well laid out and very user friendly. We have been using it for just over a year now, and have found it to be great value for money. The BI reporting saves me hours of trawling through KPI figures and they are neatly displayed with year on year comparisons. Read more Trevor and his team are always extremely helpful, and efficient. Comments for improvement to the system are taken on board and implemented if logistically possible. The forum is also a very useful tool as it is a way of networking with other practitioners of ways to improve your practice, or just to find an out of stock frame or have a general rant about the complexities of modern life !

I can highly recommend Optix as a valuable tool for any developing practice.

We moved from Optisoft and have been really delighted we made the move. Really like the Eye Exam format and the easy interface with our fundus camera. The reporting in the business intelligence element is really easy to use and is so powerful in allowing us to track our progress. And having lived Read more through a previous computer crash with no recent back-up, the security that everything is held securely on a remote server is very comforting. Also a fan of a fixed monthly fee with no up-front payment and no upgrade charges

We have been delighted with the performance of the Optix system. It does what it says on the tin. It is a business system which has a few operating quirks which are all on the Optix wish list for future fixes. It is a reliable system giving good recall and details for marketing and patient contact. Read more The Direct Debit facility is flexible allowing collections for both spectacles and contact lenses.

The support team are excellent when called upon even for some small simple problems.

We looked long and hard before changing our old system and haven't been disappointed by the choice we made.

I am a great supporter of Optix. I have used them for some years and have been very pleased with the complete package. The software is not just a booking and record system but a package able to run multiple sites. It is very reassuring to know that with the software there is a great support team Read more behind to help with all you needs. I am very happy to recommend this product and have done.

After receiving many recommendations from both industry and fellow professionals we felt we needed to, at the very least, look at Optix for our future practice needs. We needed a system that provided us with better information to manage the business side of the practice, as well as make a Read more streamlined method to manage clinical records as well as ordering to each of our suppliers. Optix does all of these (and more). The initial training was excellent-and were re-assured that to phone support for queries was not a problem and would be expected. This support has been friendly and most helpful and we feel that together we are always trying to improve our use of the software. I had always been very sceptical in software development that what is promised takes either forever to materialise or never comes as described-but with Optix we feel we are seeing all of the promised changes, and have been given time frames for other new pieces to come in later. It is a forever changing world and we feel Optix knows the needs that we face. The Optix forum has proved a valuable meeting place for fellow, like minded, professionals and created a ‘family’ feeling as we all look to help each other to improve our practices and business ideas. An excellent forum that will keep as working with other independents and create bonds and friendships that will prove invaluable. Well done Trevor and the team.
