Covetrus Pulse review
Bottom line
Covetrus Pulse is a cloud practice management system that combines scheduling, medical records, billing, pharmacy and inventory for veterinary clinics. Its clearest strength is the tight link between records, online pharmacy, payments and reordering, along with more than 250 third-party integrations. The main cost to watch is pricing that starts at $116 per month, with full plans available only on request and no free trial. Veterinary practices that want one connected system and are willing to book a demo before buying should consider Pulse.
What is Covetrus Pulse?
Covetrus Pulse is a cloud-based practice management system for veterinary clinics, which the company describes as a Veterinary Operating System (vOS). It brings scheduling, medical records, billing, inventory and client communication into one environment, aimed at cutting the time staff spend switching between separate apps and logins. Pulse was formerly known as eVetPractice.
Day to day, clinic staff work from a personalized dashboard. Clients can book appointments online, and two-way messaging with images supports communication. Medical records track communication histories, prescriptions, diagnostic results and purchases. A treatment board shows real-time patient status with visual alerts, and a task dashboard tracks callbacks with Overdue and Due Today icons. Covetrus AI can auto-generate SOAP notes, and customizable clinic reports show treatments, revenue and operational performance. Staff can also build digital forms that flow straight into client records.
Pulse is built for veterinary practices, and the company lists freelancers, small businesses, mid-sized businesses and enterprises among its typical customers. Pricing starts at $116 per month, with full plan details provided on request through a demo. No free plan or free trial is offered. Covetrus AI features are embedded in Pulse at no extra cost.
What sets Pulse apart is how it links the company's own products with third-party tools. The vRxPro integration provides a practice-branded online pharmacy, syncs client purchases with patient records, and lets prescriptions be created, approved and renewed within Pulse. Covetrus Payments handles checkout, Covetrus Supply connects inventory with automated reordering, and CareCredit financing can be applied from inside the system. Care plans managed through CarePlans sync billing status into the medical record. The company cites more than 250 third-party integrations, including reference labs, microchip providers, pet insurance and bookkeeping tools. Compared with running separate point tools, the main difference is that payments, pharmacy, records and reordering share one set of data.
