Jokes

We can tell you we're better. Every company comparison page normally ends like this.

But have you ever seen a comparison page where the company that wrote it didn't come out on top?

Neither have we.

Any comparison you find online, including the one you were hoping to find here, was almost certainly written by someone with something to sell. So rather than dressing up our pitch as a fair fight, we'd rather just be straight with you.

Ask Facebook. Find the NDIS provider groups and ask real people what they use and what they think. Look for reviews on independent platforms. The truth about any piece of software lives in the comments section, not on the landing pages of the companies selling it.

That includes this one.

When you've done your research and you're ready to have an honest conversation, we'll be here.

"As an independent support coordinator, Astalty has saved me so much time with manual tasks. Beforehand, I was using multiple different programs to get my work completed, keeping contacts in a word document, making forms manually on word, etc. Now, everything is included in the one program and I don't have to switch between different tabs for one task. It's saving funding for my participants also."

Megan Stewart

"Easiest CRM I've ever used. It's designed in conjunction with support coordinators and we haven't needed any real structured training to get in and set the system up running for all levels of IT competency which was unexpected but such a blessing!"

LT

Lia “Miss LadyPetal” Thompson

"I find the program easy to navigate and love the features and support team."

Nic Mortimer

"Over 20 years in Client Services Team within Community field including Health Departments I have use a lot of different CRM's. ASTALTY is definitely one of my favourites. It's simple but enough, does every thing you need it to without the complicated components that you never use anyway. Sure there a few things like all systems that could be streamlined, but I'm sure soon enough the Astalty team will put in an upgrade to fix these things. I think because it is specifically designed for purpose there is not all these adds to try to make a system do something it was not designed to do. I have been able to work most parts out myself without having to consult the user guides....this is how straight forward it is.....IT JUST MAKES SENSE. #iluvastalty"

"My team and I officially moved to Astalty a month ago and couldn't be happier. Astalty helps us manage and prioritise our tasks, streamlines billing and is really easy to navigate. The transition was very smooth and support has been fantastic, always responsive and ready help. Highly recommend!"

"Astalty has proven to be an exceptional platform for my work as both a case coordinator and support coordinator. With a wide range of features, many of which I have yet to explore, it significantly streamlines tasks and allows for more efficient use of my time without the need for duplication. The support team is always readily available to address any issues and promptly action requests. If only Astalty had developed the new NDIS PACE system, now that would have been amazing!"

"I have used other tools before and they were all very clunky. Astalty makes everything so easy and the updates and adjustments to changes within the NDIS happen so quickly that it really takes a lot of the stress out of it. I love the templates and how everything happens automatically; Referrals, enquiries, invoices, Xero, my website - it all integrates and saves me hours and hours that I can spend supporting my participants. The customer service is quick to reply and always super helpful. I recommend Astalty to anyone wanting to run their business efficiently. Big thanks to Jonathon and the Astalty Team!!"

"*honest review*For months I had shopped around, ripping my hair out, trying to find the right software. From companies that charged you per client that you have, to companies that charged $10,000 just to teach you how to use their software. To companies that have absolutely zero support - just pretty picture's.Now that I have signed up with Astalty, I can hand on heart, honestly say I am thankful that I have found such an amazing software, that comes with very proactive and supportive people running it.Astalty does everything I need but the best things for me are:1. It is packed with organised sections (for my little OCD self) so I can have as much or as little information in areas with quick access to them.2. It links directly to my XERO and I have NEVER had to stress about my invoices.3. If I ever have a moment where I just can't remember what I was doing - I have super awesome humans on the other end of the computer that help me any time that I need. Bonus.4. It is extremely cheap compared to so may other providers!If you are every worried about locking into something straight away, I would 1000% recommend having a trial of Astalty. I guarantee you will love it."

Chanel Roche

"I cannot rave more about this! I signed up for another software program and whilst it met my needs, does not match up to the convenience, structure and thoughtfulness of Astalty. I made the move as soon as I heard Astalty were offering rostering software and I am 100% satisfied that I did it and only wish I did it sooner!"

Kate Davey

"Astalty is the CRM that we have been looking for, for our business it has been a game changer, from the customisable templates that can utilised to assist us with assessments right through to reports and having them indivdualised to each client of ours at the click of a button through to tracking funding to ensure that the client has enough within their budget to cater to their needs"

"Astalty is by far the best program I have used as a support coordinator. It has everything to make my job easier, and when I think of something that I need, I can contact the local team and they will more often than not be able to create the functionality. They also have weekly training sessions which are fantastic. The integration with Xero and Docusign is awesome too. I cannot recommend Astalty enough."

Kelly Carpenter

"I have been looking for a Support Coordination specific CRM for a number of years that was both a great price point and suited my needs as an independent NDIS registered provider.This system is amazing - it is a great price - based on user rather than client number, has so many features (with more coming), the developers are open and willing to chat and provide assistance and it was so easy to set up and learn.The client import/set up was simple and I was able to get all my clients fully set up within 2 weeks while still working without a hiccup!Looking forward to the future and am sure this system will be an asset and help me improve my service delivery to clients."
