Clinicraft vs Consentz: which is better for aesthetic clinics?

Consentz has been around since 2012 and leans into CQC compliance and clinic marketing tools. Clinicraft is a narrower, flat-fee system with published pricing and a complications workflow with an exposed status and an immediate owner/admin alert.

Published pricing vs a quote request

Consentz doesn’t list a price anywhere on its own site — you request a demo or a quote to find out. Third-party listings cite roughly £49/month, but that’s not confirmed directly by Consentz. Clinicraft is £29.99/month flat, plus £4.99/month per additional staff member, published on our pricing page so you can see the exact cost before you ever talk to anyone.

Where Consentz genuinely does more

To be fair to Consentz — its CQC compliance module (incident log, staff training dashboard, live risk register, inspection reports) and marketing tools (email campaigns, ad management, SEO clinic websites) are real, and Clinicraft doesn’t offer either. Consentz also has genuine Stripe deposit collection and a built-in, per-treatment consent form library — both closely matched to Clinicraft’s own. Their incident management system can log and investigate a complication too, but what we couldn’t find on their site was an exposed status workflow or an immediate alert to owners and admins when one’s reported.

Checked against Consentz’s own site, not assumed. Where a feature wasn’t confirmed on their site, we’ve said so rather than guessing — worth confirming directly with Consentz.

When Clinicraft makes more sense

  • You want published pricing you can read today, not a quote request.
  • You want an exposed complications status (New → Acknowledged → Resolved) with an immediate owner/admin alert.
  • You don't need CQC compliance automation or built-in marketing tools.

When Consentz might make more sense

  • You’re preparing for a CQC inspection and want an incident log, training dashboard and risk register built in.
  • You want email campaigns, ad management and SEO website tools in the same system.
  • You’re comfortable requesting a custom quote rather than reading a published price.

FAQs

Is Clinicraft cheaper than Consentz?

Consentz doesn't publish pricing on its own site — third-party listings cite roughly £49/month, but that figure isn't confirmed directly by Consentz and you'll need to request a quote or demo to find out for sure. Clinicraft is a flat £29.99/month plus £4.99/month per additional staff member, published on our pricing page with nothing to request.

Does Consentz have deposit collection and structured consent forms?

Yes — Consentz collects deposits through Stripe at the point of booking and has a built-in library of pre-built, customisable per-treatment consent forms with digital signatures. Both are closely matched to how Clinicraft handles deposits and consent, so this isn't a meaningful difference between the two.

Does Consentz have a tracked complications workflow?

Partly — Consentz's incident management system can log and investigate a complication, with notes on corrective actions and learning outcomes. What we couldn't find was an exposed status workflow (something equivalent to new, acknowledged, resolved) or an immediate alert to owners and admins when one's reported. Clinicraft has both: a New → Acknowledged → Resolved workflow with an immediate email alert to your practice's owners and admins.

Does Consentz help with CQC compliance?

Yes, genuinely — Consentz has a dedicated CQC compliance module covering an incident log, staff training dashboard, live risk register, and inspection reports across all five CQC domains. This is a real feature Clinicraft doesn't offer; Clinicraft stays focused on booking, deposits, consent and clinical records.

Can I switch from Consentz to Clinicraft without losing my data?

Yes — send an export of your existing patient and booking data and we'll import it into Clinicraft for you, free of charge.

Does Clinicraft have marketing tools like Consentz?

No — Consentz includes email campaigns, an ads module and SEO clinic websites. Clinicraft deliberately stays focused on booking, deposits, consent and clinical records rather than marketing.
