When Basil fits

  • You want one vendor for retail, restaurant, and clinic brands with separate dedicated workspaces.
  • Eye hospitals need optical shop, OT calendar, and pre-test modules on the same visit record.
  • You prefer mobile-first web queues for reception, doctors, and pharmacy without desktop lock-in.

When Practo Ray may still fit

  • Your staff is fully trained on Practo Ray and migration timing is not viable this quarter.
  • You rely on Practo-specific marketplace integrations that must be re-validated before switching.
