Choosing the right platform for your practice
Jane App is a well-regarded platform for allied-health clinics. It combines scheduling, clinical charting, telehealth, and insurance billing in one system, and multidisciplinary practices — physiotherapy, massage, chiropractic, mental health — rely on its charting depth and responsive support.
But not every practice needs all of that. If your charting lives elsewhere, or your services are wellness-oriented and don't require SOAP notes and insurance modules, you end up paying per practitioner for a clinical suite when what you actually need is great booking, payments, and reminders. That's where Cicini fits: a focused, flat-priced wellness scheduling platform for the front-of-house experience.
How Cicini and Jane App differ
Jane App is built around the clinical record. Charting, treatment notes, insurance billing, and the EHR are the core, and online booking is one part of a much larger practice-management system priced per practitioner.
Cicini is built around the booking and the client. Clients book the right service with the right practitioner, pay the full appointment price via Stripe (deposits on roadmap), get automated reminders, and rebook — all from one clean system. Staff see their assignments, you see utilization and revenue, and you add clinicians without your subscription multiplying per provider.
The difference isn't quality — it's scope and pricing model. Pay for the operations layer you use, not a clinical suite you don't.

Contact our teamFrequently asked questions
Is Cicini a good Jane App alternative?
Yes. Cicini is a strong Jane App alternative for allied-health practices that want modern online booking, payments, and automation without paying for clinical charting, EHR, and insurance-billing modules they do not use. Jane App is a full practice-management and charting platform priced per practitioner, while Cicini focuses on the booking, payments, reminders, and client-management layer at transparent, flat plans that start free.
How much does Cicini cost compared to Jane App?
Cicini uses flat, published pricing: a Free plan at $0, Starter at $19/mo, Professional at $49/mo, and a custom Enterprise plan — billed per account, not per practitioner. Jane App is priced per practitioner (its Balance, Practice, and Thrive plans each carry a monthly fee per provider, plus paid add-ons), so the cost grows with every clinician you add, which can add up quickly for group practices with part-time or contract staff.
Does Cicini replace the charting and EHR features in Jane App?
No, and that is the point. Cicini is a booking, scheduling, payments, and client-management platform — not a clinical charting or EHR system. If your practice does not need SOAP notes, treatment charting, or insurance billing, you can skip those modules entirely with Cicini. If you do need clinical charting, many practices keep a dedicated EHR and use Cicini for the front-of-house booking, payment, and reminder experience.
Can I collect payments and reduce no-shows like I do in Jane App?
Cicini connects to Stripe for full-price checkout at booking on paid plans. Deposits and packages are on the roadmap. Automated email reminders are included on every plan and SMS reminders are available on paid plans, so clients show up without your front desk chasing them.
How long does it take to switch from Jane App to Cicini?
Most practices get a Cicini booking page live the same day. You can recreate services and treatment types, set per-practitioner availability, connect Stripe for payments, and sync Google Calendar (beta) without a multi-week onboarding project. Our team helps you import clients and configure workflows — start at /support for migration help.
Does Cicini handle multiple practitioners and locations?
Cicini supports multi-staff scheduling with individual availability and services per practitioner today. Multi-location branches are on the roadmap. Because Cicini is billed per account rather than per practitioner, adding clinicians does not multiply your subscription cost the way per-provider pricing does.
Does Cicini use HIPAA-compliant security for health practices?
Cicini uses HIPAA-compliant security practices (encryption in transit and at rest, role-based access). A signed Business Associate Agreement (BAA) and Health compliance tier are on our Enterprise roadmap — not available on Free, Starter, or Professional plans today. Standard plans suit general wellness and allied-health booking that does not require a BAA. Contact us via /demo if a BAA is essential.
