For me the change to Optix has probably been the best business decision I have made. Optix is a superb tool that interacts with your patient at every part of the patients journey. It is so flexible that you can use as much or as little as you want without making things complicated, but the more you Read more use the better it gets.

As a company Optix is great to work with from outstanding phone support, to in practice training and yearly user group meetings not to mention the online forum.

I have no hesitation in recommending Optix to any Optician from a single site to small groups.

We have been using Optix now for over 5 years and it has become an integral part of our practices. During that time we have seen the system grow into a comprehensive management package that encompasses all you need to run a busy patient focused practice on a day to day basis (diary, record Read more keeping, dispensing, ordering, till, NHS reconciliation, direct debit payments, recall, stock control etc). Additionally Optix provides a fully integrated mailing and marketing suite combined with business intelligence and accounting tools to help us successfully manage & plan our business.



As result of the success of Optix we have seen the number of users grow many fold. Despite this the service we have received from Trevor & the support team has always been excellent and the support staff numbers have grown in line with number of users. Most issues are resolved instantly by telephone support and the team are also happy to extend their expertise to help solve problems with peripherals even when not supplied by Optix.



Another important facet of the Optix offering is Trevor's hands on approach and commitment to ongoing development. While Optix will never be a bespoke system for any individual practice Trevor and the support team are always receptive to suggestions for improvements and enhancements to the system. This via suggestions directly to telephone support, or through the unique online user group forum or at the annual user group meeting (which has also developed into quite a social event not to be missed).



We are especially looking forward to the forthcoming addition of online appointment booking and further integration of pre screening equipment. Optix has evolved into a powerful tool for independent opticians that not only makes us more efficient but also helps to differentiate our business from the competition.



I have every confidence that the improvements we have seen to Optix in the past will continue and we look forward to building our business in partnership with Trevor & the Optix team over the years to come.

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.

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".

Great system, great people. The team are always very enthusiastic to receive our input and to apply fine tuning, to what I believe is already the best management software out there.

We have two busy independent practices in Kent and were frustrated with the limitations of our last practice management system. We have now had Optix for 2 years and have never looked back. The functionality is far superior to anything else we looked at - the Direct Debit module is easy to use and Read more saves time and money processing payments, the Business Intelligence programme makes it easy to monitor sales and other KPIs and the ability to view both practices from either work or home is particularly useful.

The fact that there are no add-ons makes the programme intuitive rather than being clunky and encourages using Optix to its full potential.

The biggest plus about using Optix is the fantastic support team who go way above and beyond the call of duty to ensure a smooth introduction to Optix and then continue to provide first class support afterwards.

I would have no hesitation in recommending Optix - it will change your business!

We joined the Optix Team in 2008 and although we operate from sunnier climes in the Caribbean with a different national health system we have found the Optix programme made a tremendous improvement to our business. The Optix team worked assiduously in setting up the programme liaising with Read more technicians in Trinidad and ensuring that we obtained the best possible operation with the Optix Programme. We are an independent practice and are delighted to be part of the Optix group where we can network with other members in the Usergroup. The support from the Optix team and through the Usergroup is second to none when it comes to matters related to Optix, optometry and running an optical business.

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 using Optix Software to run all our public clinics at Aston University for over 5 years now and have found them to be superb. The software is easy to use, highly intuitive and Optix staff have always been very responsive in responding to and resolving our complex demands on their Read more software. I cannot recommend them highly enough.
