Veterinary practice software for vets and clinics worldwide
4softvet keeps animal files, appointments, consultations, prescriptions and a documents register in one account, for a solo vet or a clinic with several rooms. It organises the internal work of your team; it does not take bookings from owners, send reminders or issue invoices.

What is inside
What a veterinary practice runs on 4softvet
A practice needs three things in order: which animal it is and who owns it, when it is seen, and what was recorded last time. 4softvet keeps those in one panel instead of a paper diary, a spreadsheet and a folder of printouts.
Appointments for every vet
Each appointment carries a date and time, a duration, a reason, a vet, a room and a fee you mark as paid.
- Scheduled, confirmed, completed
- One agenda for the whole team
A warning before you double-book
If a new appointment overlaps another with the same vet or in the same room, the panel tells you which one. You can still book it when you mean to.
- Checked per vet and per room
- You stay in control of the final call
The day on one screen
Today's visits are listed by status. Press check-in when the animal arrives and complete when the visit ends.
- Waiting, in consultation, done
- No paper diary at reception
Consultation notes in free text
Write the reason, symptoms, diagnosis, treatment and the date of the follow-up. The note stays linked to the animal.
- Free text, no coded diagnosis list
- Full history on the animal file
Prescriptions as documents
Write the medication, dosage and instructions, then print a sheet with a line for signature and stamp. Your copy stays in the animal file.
- Printed, signed, stamped by the vet
- Not sent to any registry
A register of documents
Record lab results, imaging, referrals and vaccination certificates against an animal, with a title, a type, a date and a link or reference.
- Know what exists, and for whom
- The files stay where you keep them
Figures for the whole practice
Counts of animals, appointments today and in the next seven days, and consultations and prescriptions this month, with charts of how activity evolves.
- Overview numbers at a glance
- Activity trends over time
A working day
From the first animal to the last record of the day
Set up the practice
Add your vets and rooms in the settings and choose the currency your fees are in.
Add the animals
Create a file for each animal with the owner's contact details, allergies and any notes you want to keep.
Book the appointments
Pick the animal, the vet, the time and the room. If the slot clashes, the panel shows you with whom.
Run the day and write it up
Check animals in, complete the visit, then write the consultation note and the prescription while it is fresh.
Who it fits
Made for the practice you actually run
A solo vet
One agenda, one animal file per patient and a printed prescription, without a stack of tools to maintain.
A clinic with several vets and rooms
Every appointment shows the vet and the room, and the overlap check works for both.
A practice leaving paper or a spreadsheet
Move the diary, the animal cards and the folder of printouts into one account, at your own pace.
Straight answers
What 4softvet deliberately does not do
Know the limits before you decide. Everything above is what the panel does today; this is what it leaves to other tools.
- Owners cannot book online: your team enters every appointment. There is no public booking page.
- No automatic reminders by e-mail, SMS or WhatsApp. 4notify is a separate product of the same ecosystem and works on its own.
- No invoicing or payment processing: the fee on an appointment is a field you mark as paid.
- No connection to an animal register, microchip database or electronic prescription system. Records and prescriptions stay inside your own account.
- Uploaded files are not stored: the documents register keeps a title, a type, a date and a link.
- One account is one practice. Several locations are not managed together.
Prices are shown in euro on the plan cards below, with 6 months free and no card. The practice panel is available in several languages.
