Why UK & EU practices are looking at Atlacare
- Data lives in EU-region infrastructure on every plan, so residency isn't something you have to request or reason about.
- UK and EU GDPR tooling — consent capture, country-aware retention, audit logging and right-to-erasure — is part of the core product, not a policy PDF.
- Pricing is set and billed in pounds, with a genuinely free plan for your first 20 patients while you get started.
- A built-in Practice Health score reads your retention, revenue and diary and suggests the next action, rather than leaving you to read raw reports.
- One-click import brings your Cliniko patients across and matches your practitioners, so the switch is measured in an afternoon.
Planning your migration from Cliniko
Atlacare imports patient records, contact details and history directly from a Cliniko export, and matches them to your practitioners for you. Founding clinics get white-glove help: we'll sit with you through the first import and check the data lands correctly before you go live. Nothing is deleted from Cliniko in the process, so you can move across at your own pace.
