Xolotl as an alternative to Vetocare

Vetocare is the low-cost end of the Benelux market and does not pretend otherwise. If price is the deciding factor, they will usually win it.

What Vetocare is

Vetocare is aimed at small practices, animal physiotherapists and solo professionals who want patient management without a heavy back office. It is easy to start, easy to leave, and priced accordingly.

We are not going to argue with their price advantage. The question is what you need alongside the patient file.

On price, plainly

Vetocare's entry plan costs a fraction of ours, and their ladder adds invoicing, then accounting integrations, at each step, with a flat team plan above and support staff counted in the plan. Ours is one price per veterinarian — 79 EUR solo, 59 EUR then 39 EUR as the team grows, capped at 390 EUR per site — with the whole Belgian back office and unlimited staff accounts inside it.

If monthly cost is the constraint that decides, they win it — the only honest question is whether the entry plan carries everything you need. We do not print their figures here; Vetocare publishes theirs, ours are on our pricing page, and the worked arithmetic is in what the software really costs.

What you are buying with the difference

Between the entry tier and ours sits most of the Belgian back office and the clinical depth.

  • CODA bank import with automatic matching on OGM references
  • Ledger export to Winbooks and Exact
  • Peppol e-invoicing through your access point
  • Antibiotic tracking and FAMHP registry records with the declaration export
  • Batch stock with FEFO, cold chain, compounding and barcode dispensing
  • Hospitalisation, treatment sheets, fluid balance and pain scoring
  • DICOM imaging, audit trail, 2FA and per-client GDPR export
  • Offline field rounds with vehicle stock and automatic mileage

Where Vetocare is the better answer

  • You are a solo practitioner or physiotherapist who needs a patient file and little else
  • Your accountant already handles the entire back office and you want no part of it in software
  • Monthly cost is the constraint that decides it
