What do you like best about Zanda (formerly Power Diary)?

I find Zanda very easy to set up and use, which significantly simplifies my workflow. I appreciate that it consolidates invoicing, notes, and client data all in one place, making management tasks straightforward. I also enjoy the customizable form section, allowing me to create my own forms as needed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Zanda (formerly Power Diary)?

I dislike the limitations in handling family or couple information effectively within the software. When managing configurations for couples or families, especially in billing situations like choosing which parent to bill or setting up contact details for both parents, I faced difficulties. It would be beneficial to have a specific section or tree layout to better manage these types of client scenarios, allowing for clear organization and information retrieval.

Response from Irina Shvetsova of Zanda (formerly Power Diary)

Hi Tanya, thank you so much for your thoughtful review! We’re thrilled to hear that Zanda helps simplify your workflow and that you’re finding value in having invoicing, notes, and client data all in one place. It’s great to know you’re also making good use of our customizable forms feature, that flexibility is something we’re really proud of.

Thank you for your feedback about managing family or couple billing. There are various ways of managing this process in Zanda, some of them are using Shared profiles with billing to the primary client for couples or family counselling, and billing to client contacts when treating children. Please contact us on support@zandahealth.com and we will be happy to organise a free personal support session for you to explore your best options and help you set up your account.

Thank you again for being part of the Zanda community, we’re so glad to support your practice! - Irina

"Great Platform"
5/5
What do you like best about Zanda (formerly Power Diary)?

Zanda is an efficient platform, easy to use and has helped greatly in making my admin and practice run smoothly. Whenever I'm stuck I can easily contact customer support or use the handy chatbot at the bottom left of the screen. I use it frequently for all my invoicing and it's easy to integrate other practitioners and my admin staff. All in all it's extremely effective after having to find another platform sue to my previous platform going into administration. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Zanda (formerly Power Diary)?

I'm still trying to figure out if I am able to hold a meeting on the platform without registering a client. The subscription should include unlimited meetings as you're already paying for a subscription. So having to pay extra to get unlimited rather than 4 free only per month is a let down. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Irina Shvetsova of Zanda (formerly Power Diary)

Hello, thank you so much for this detailed and thoughtful review! We're thrilled to hear that Zanda has been such an effective and efficient platform for you, especially after your previous experience. It's great to know that our focus on providing a smooth administrative experience and excellent customer support is making a real difference in your practice. We're very proud that you find our platform so effective for invoicing and integrating your team.

We also appreciate your question about holding meetings with unregistered clients. Zanda is designed to generate a unique telehealth link for each client's profile to ensure security and maintain proper records within your account. Therefore, it is not possible to host a meeting with someone who does not have a profile.

Thank you again for taking the time to share your experience. Your feedback helps us continually improve Zanda. Warm regards, Irina

"Very satisfied using Zanda to manage my counselling practice"
5/5
What do you like best about Zanda (formerly Power Diary)?

I have been using Zanda for about 6 months, and I would say I use it most days in my solo mental health counselling practice. It was pretty intuitive to learn how to navigate it, and it is not visually overwhelming which is important to me as an ADHDer. I like the dashboard, which gives me visual feedback about tracking progress notes and billing/payments from clients. It's kind of like an unobtrusive, secret boss :) that helps me stay organized and on track in my practice. It is HIPAA and PIPEDA compliant (I hope I got those acronyms right) for client confidentiality. The price point is reasonable too, which I really appreciate as a new business owner. I also got help transferring client data, and was able to integrate it into my website fairly easily. Overall, I'm very happy with Zanda. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Zanda (formerly Power Diary)?

So, far it does what I need it to do, so no downsides. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Irina Shvetsova of Zanda (formerly Power Diary)

Hello, thanks so much for sharing your experience! We’re really happy to hear Zanda has been easy to learn and helps you stay on top of your practice without the overwhelm. Love that the dashboard feels like your “secret boss” keeping things on track! We’re excited to keep supporting you as your practice grows.

Warm regards, Irina

The clear user-friendly navigation and comprehensive help section that always has the answer I need. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Zanda (formerly Power Diary)?

It doesn't integrate with my accounting software, although I know it does with others.

It's a bit fiddly to set up therapy packages.

I wish I could set up an online appointment with peers/colleagues without having to add them as a client. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It's that easy and seamless to operate.

Very efficient! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Zanda (formerly Power Diary)?

Naturally, the price keeps increasing day by day, and since 2024, it has become more expensive than what I would consider a reasonable hike. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Time-Saving and User-Friendly, But Lacks Integration"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Zanda (formerly Power Diary)?

I love the AI notes feature, which significantly saves me time by allowing voice input and providing comprehensive clinical notes with detailed muscle group information. The diary aspect with automatic client reminders is a fantastic time saver, and clients appreciate the repeat notifications. I also value the ability to store scans and clinical notes from doctors, making it extremely useful. Additionally, the simplicity and user-friendliness of Zanda make it easy for both me and my clients to navigate. I've recommended it to many colleagues due to these benefits. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Zanda (formerly Power Diary)?

I don't like that the software lacks an integrated booking system, which means I have to use a separate scheduling tool. This limitation is inconvenient as it prevents me from managing bookings and payments through one platform. I also mentioned that Zanda doesn't currently integrate with my existing online booking system, which is another drawback, as it doesn't streamline my workflow as much as I would prefer. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Irina Shvetsova of Zanda (formerly Power Diary)

Hi Liz, thanks so much for your kind words and for recommending Zanda! We’re so glad the BizzyAI note taking tools, reminders, and document storage are saving you time. If you haven’t tried it yet, our Zanda Client Portal lets clients book and pay all in one place — no separate tools needed. We'll be releasing the option to pass the online payments processing fees to clients soon, which will make the use of the client portal and online payments even more efficient. Thank you for being a valued part of the Zanda community! Warm regards, Irina

"Zanda allows me to do more of the work I love!"
5/5
What do you like best about Zanda (formerly Power Diary)?

There are so many features I love of Zanda and its ever evolving offers; client portal, email reminders, how easy it is to communicate with clients. But my current favourite feature is the AI note taking tool! The biggest drain for me in private practice as a therapist has always been writing up my notes but the AI notes feature is absolutely fantastic and has transformed my practice! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Zanda (formerly Power Diary)?

I honestly can’t think of anything I dislike. I’d like a few more automations available but I know some are underway already and you can make requests which is great! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Irina Shvetsova of Zanda (formerly Power Diary)

Hi Jordan, thank you for this amazing review!

We’re so happy to hear that Zanda is helping you spend more time doing the work you love. It’s fantastic that BizzyAI note taking tools have made such a positive impact on your practice—hearing that it’s transformed your workflow truly means a lot to us.

We also appreciate your note about automations. You’re absolutely right—more are on the way, and we love seeing feature requests from practitioners like you. Your feedback helps shape the future of Zanda.

Thanks again for being part of the Zanda community! - Irina
