Comparison
A vendor-neutral eVetPractice alternative
A vendor-neutral, EU-hosted alternative to eVetPractice / Covetrus Pulse
eVetPractice (part of Covetrus, now bundled with Pulse) is a cloud PIMS tied tightly to the Covetrus distribution and pharmacy ecosystem. VaroVet is vendor-neutral — pick your own lab, pharmacy, and payment partners — and runs on EU infrastructure rather than US-hosted Covetrus cloud.
